Pardee Faculty Fellow Kevin Gallagher Co-Authors GEGI Working Paper

Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future Faculty Fellow and Co-Director of the Global Economic Governance Initiative (GEGI) Kevin P. Gallagher and Professor Daniela Magalhães Prates (Institute of Economics and the State University of Campinas) co-authored the latest GEGI policy brief.

The brief, “Financialization and the Resource Curse: The Challenge of Exchange Rate Management in Brazil,” discusses current tools used by Brazil that enable the country to address the exogenously determined factors related to exchange rate instability. These tools have been a modest success at best, but lay the groundwork for what may be the necessary economic policies and political conditions for a more comprehensive program to achieve stability-led diversified growth in Brazil.

The brief is the latest in a series of publications by GEGI, a project co-sponsored by the Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future, the Center for Finance, Law & Policy, and the Center for International Relations. GEGI strives to advance policy-relevant knowledge about economic governance for financial stability, human development, and the environment.
