Abstract

This paper contains an empirical analysis of the "depth" of the Mexican Currency Crisis (1994-1995) and the East Asian Currency Crisis (1997). The purpose is to attempt to gauge the degree of impact of 1) deterioration in economic fundamentals and 2) the function of contagion channels on the above two crises.
