• International Spillovers of Policy Uncertainty

  Staff Working Paper 2014-57 Stefan Klößner, Rodrigo Sekkel

  Using the Baker et al. (2013) index of policy uncertainty for six developed countries, this paper estimates spillovers of policy uncertainty. We find that spillovers account for slightly more than one-fourth of the dynamics of policy uncertainty in these countries, with this share rising to one-half during the financial crisis.
