Title: Measuring Wealth and Financial Intermediation and Their Links to the Real Economy
Description: Measuring Wealth and Financial Intermediation and Their Links to the Real Economy identifies measurement problems associated with the financial crisis and improvements in measurement that may prevent future crises, taking account of the dynamism of the financial marketplace in which measures that once worked well become misleading. In addition to advances in measuring financial activity, the contributors also investigate the effects of the crisis on households and nonfinancial businesses. They show that households{u2019} experiences varied greatly and some even experienced gains in wealth, while nonfinancial businesses{u2019} lack of access to credit in the recession may have been a more important factor than the effects of policies stimulating demand.
