Summary:Three waves of external crises have swept international capital markets during the 1990s: the EMS crisis in 1992-93, the collapse of the Mexican peso with its induced "tequila effects" and, most recently, the financial crisis in East Asia. In Italy and Mexico, the currency crisis was followed by a sharp reversal in the current account; Italy went from a deficit of 2.4 percent in 1992 to an average surplus of 2 percent in 1993-97, and Mexico from a deficit of 7 percent in 1994 to virtual balance in 1995-96; a similar outcome is expected to occur in East Asia. Are external crises characterized by large nominal devaluations invariably followed by sharp reductions in current account deficits? And what is the impact of crises and reversals in current account imbalances on economic performance? Our paper addresses these questions by characterizing real and nominal aspects of sharp external adjustments in low-and middle-income countries. It presents stylized facts associated with sharp reductions in current account deficits (reversals) and with large nominal devaluations (currency crises), studies empirically what factors help predict crises and reversals and what factors explain macroeconomic performance after such events occur
