About this work
Changes in bond holdings reflect both transactions and movements in asset values. Jonathan Fortun and Sergi Lanau extend their emerging market government bond database to distinguish those effects in November 2020. Outflows and valuation losses reduced positions in many markets, while China attracted investment without comparable valuation losses and gained portfolio weight.
Abstract
Changes in bond holdings reflect both transactions and movements in asset values. Jonathan Fortun and Sergi Lanau extend their emerging market government bond database to distinguish those effects in November 2020. Outflows and valuation losses reduced positions in many markets, while China attracted investment without comparable valuation losses and gained portfolio weight.
