Determinants of Financial Stress and Recovery during the Great Recession Staff Working Paper 2011-24 Joshua Aizenman, Gurnain Pasricha In this paper, we explore the link between stress in the domestic financial sector and the capital flight faced by countries in the 2008-9 global crisis. Both the timing of emergence of internal financial stress in developing economies, and the size of the peak-trough declines in the stock price indices was comparable to that in high income countries, indicating that there was no decoupling, even before Lehman Brothers’ demise.
