So consumers got overleveraged.

Without disputing the need for some deleveraging, a new incarnation of the Vienna Initiative Vienna 2.0 seeks to make the process orderly. After all, excessive and chaotic deleveraging by lenders to emerging Europe and the ensuing credit crunch would destabilize this economically and institutionally fragile region.

One is leverage.

But it's also, of course, to do with the massive crisis that followed excessive leverage, excessive borrowing in the private sector.

But it was a bubble and a highly leveraged one at that. While periodic bubbles may be unavoidable, and no bubble is without consequences, a highly leveraged bubble tends to cause far more damage, owing to its impact on the real economy and the duration of the deleveraging process.

Emerging Europe s Deleveraging Dilemma

America s economy had been supercharged by excessive leveraging now comes the painful process of deleveraging. Excessive leveraging, combined with bad lending and risky derivatives, has caused credit markets to freeze.

That pattern came to a sudden stop in the financial crisis of 2008. Private sector leverage declined and public sector leverage reached and exceeded sustainable limits, with Greece being only the most extreme example.

And it has all kinds of levers and ball bearings and gadgets and gauges.

Implementation approach A Leveraging policies, legislation, plans and budgets through enhanced knowledge and evidence

We started with a motor with a little lever, a little force transfuser.

What policy levers and instruments can be used to provide appropriate incentives?

Many Western economies must deal with the nasty legacy of years of excessive borrowing and leveraging those, like Germany, that do not have this problem are linked to neighbors that do. Faced with this reality, different countries will opt for different de leveraging options.

LONDON The Great Recession of 2008 2009 was triggered by excessive debt accumulation and leverage on the part of households, financial institutions, and even the corporate sector in many advanced economies. While there is much talk about de leveraging as the crisis wanes, the reality is that private sector debt ratios have stabilized at very high levels.

Don t go there in the first place avoid whatever it is whether external pressure under the gold standard, asset price bubbles, or leverage and panic cycles such as that of 2003 2009 that creates the desire to deleverage.

And the problem with leverage is it makes the U.S. financial system look like this.

In several countries, debt financed housing booms have left households and companies over leveraged and governments have reduced deficits to contain their own debt. As a result, there are likely to be too few investors and too many savers.

One is that, facing declining growth, policymakers will resort to excess investment or leverage (or both), creating instability. The other is that they will resort to neither, and that no alternative growth engines will have been started, leading to an extended slowdown with unpredictable political consequences at home and serious economic consequences abroad.

As a result, households want to spend less and pay down their debts. To some extent, this is the natural aftermath of any credit boom.

Decisions are taken by an elite that controls the levers of power and uses them for its own benefit to ensure that it is continually re elected.

But there remains the question of whether consumption share growth is sustainable that is, whether it is the result of income share growth or rising leverage. If it is supported by excessive leverage, effectively shifting future consumption to the present, China could face a significant slowdown or even a major crisis.

The first key factor is deleveraging and the resulting shortfall in aggregate demand. Since the financial crisis began in 2008, several developed countries, having sustained demand with excessive leverage and consumption, have had to repair both private and public balance sheets, which takes time and has left them impaired in terms of growth and employment.

Thereafter, the earnings from these projects serve to leverage additional projects and to replenish the administrative budget.

One explanation is that the advanced economies had taken on too much debt and needed to deleverage, contributing to a pattern of public sector underinvestment and depressing consumption and private investment as well.
