Growth was relatively strong across the EM Edge economies in 2Q. Nicolaie, Steven and Katie debate the influence that diverging growth risks in US, China and Europe has for growth in the Edge. While the US influence may predominate, fiscal and monetary policies, structural reforms and changing trade patterns (among others) enable some differentiation between Edge economies. Differing cyclical conditions in part explain why Fed easing won’t alter most Edge central banks’ reaction functions.
