It states: These are all new types of economic crisis, rooted in the flow of capital from private to private capital. This article discusses several scenarios for preventing and mitigating future economic crises. Some of these programs are at the national level, while others require international economic coordination. These include increasing transparency, optimizing financial regulation (including soft financial constraints), proper regulation of capital flows, the introduction of more expansionary macroeconomic policies, and the identification of procedures to address the cessation and weakness of the economic crisis.
