The Asian financial crisis of 1997 means to a macroeconomic shock experienced by several Asian economies. Typically countries experienced fast devaluation and capital outflows as investor believe turned from over-exuberance to contagious pessimism as the structural imbalances in the economy became more apparent.

In 2007-08 the domestic financial shock affected the demand side first, and then modified into the Great Recession of 2009.

The COVID-19 crisis has spread fast all over the world given highly interacted supply chains and the physical contagion of the virus. This supply-shock then has affected the financial sector and the demand side (tourism, trade, etc.).
