Book Description
This 2008 Article IV Consultation highlights that Japan’s external position remains strong. The current account surplus rose to 4.8 percent of GDP in 2007 on the back of strong external demand and a further surge in investment income. Money markets remain relatively stable owing to the banking system’s lower exposure to subprime and other securitized products and the increased amounts and frequency of the Bank of Japan’s (BoJ) liquidity operations. The near-term economic outlook is for a soft landing, although there remain risks from the global economy.

Book Description
The 2008 Article IV Consultation with the Russian Federation highlights that the Russian banking system has proven to be relatively resilient in the face of worldwide turmoil. The central bank is still intervening heavily in the foreign exchange market, and Russia’s banking system is still comfortably liquid with overnight interbank rates at the lower end of the usual trading range. Executive Directors suggested a careful reconsideration of the authorities’ policy stance, so that price developments are not shaped primarily by uncertain external developments that remain beyond the authorities’ control.

Book Description
Barbados’s 2008 Article IV Consultation is focused on policies to balance the conflicting risks to inflation, growth, and medium-term sustainability. Although the government has maintained some policy space by postponing the liberalization of the capital account, its options are constrained by high public debt and the peg to the U.S. dollar. Downward-trending annual inflation rates masked pent-up price pressures that have been unleashed. The government stressed its commitment to fiscal prudence, with a view to balancing the central government accounts over the medium term.
