Abstract

[eng] This article examines changes in business-cycle synchronization in the G7 economies in the past thirty years. It specifically analyzes the impact of two synchronization transmission channels : trade and financial relations. Trade relations have gradually increased over the sample period, while financial integration has accelerated since the second half of the 1980s. Using a state-space model, we identify a common business cycle for GDP, exports, and stock-market indexes. We find that the links between economies measured by trade flows and stock-market indexes have indeed increased. By contrast , using GDP as the yardstick , we cannot conclude that the economies have become more synchronized in the recent period. [fre] Cet article est consacré à l’étude de l’évolution de la synchronisation des économies du G7 depuis trente ans. En particulier, nous nous intéressons à l’impact de l’intégration commerciale et financière croissante sur la corrélation entre économies. L’intégration financière notamment s’est accélérée à partir de la deuxième partie des années quatre-vingt. Le cycle commun est obtenu par extraction à partir d’un modèle espace-état. Si l’on observe bien une augmentation du lien entre les dynamiques du commerce et des indices boursiers, les résultats obtenus au niveau des PIB ne permettent pas de conclure à une augmentation de la synchronisation des économies sur la période récente.
