3 4I. Preceding events
- A banking crisis starts building up within a
macroeconomic framework - After enjoying an oil boom since 1978 until 1981,
with an increase in oil revenues from exports, US
monetary policy with the increase in interest
rates to fight inflation ends comfortable times. - The US economy enters into a recession, demand
for oil diminishes bringing the price of oil
down. Thereby, Mexicos terms of trade
deteriorate. - In 1982 Mexico nationalizes the commercial
banking system and introduces an exchange rate
control, after decades of free exchange. - The Mexican economy is unable to meet its
international financial commitments. - Hence, international capital markets are closed
for Mexico. - Net foreign transfers are a binding constraint
for domestic economic growth. - This changes until the 1989 renegotiation of
Mexicos foreign debt, which renders a
significant drop in real interest rates

36 37VI. Preliminary conclusions
- Banking or financial crises are not generated
spontaneously. They are the result of credit
expansion without control. - The deposit insurance fund is effective in
isolated cases of bank insolvencies. - In systemic crisis of the financial system,
federal/national government intervention is
necessary in order to provide the necessary
resources for adequate bank resolutions. - The federal government financial statements open
space to accommodating liabilities from the
banking system.
38VI. Preliminary conclusions
- Healthy public finances allow to accommodate the
interest payment of these new government
liabilities through the annual budget. - Regulation and supervision of the financial
system, and particularly the banking system,
cannot be neglected. - Given the nature of banking, i.e. high leverage
operations and intermediating resources from the
public, require from regulation and supervision
to be ahead and not behind of financial
innovation.
