These findings suggest that QE events affected Asia’s financial markets through at least three channels: They stabilized the global financial market, calming sentiment and volatility to stabilize capital inflows, which lowered credit default swap premiums and strengthened currency values in Asia. They lowered the long-term interest rate, which brought down Asian domestic interest rates. And they changed market expectations through direct announcements.
