Dear Colleagues,

 

Charles Engel and I have set up a website focused on the origin and
sustainability of large current account imbalances in major
industrialized economies.

 

http://currentaccount.lafollette.wisc.edu/

 

The website contains links to academic and policy papers on the subject,
to researchers working on the topic, and other links to relevant
websites. Since we envision this as a work-in-progress, suggestions and
comments are more than welcome.
