GARMENT REINHART DERT DOYENNE

摘要

Carmen Reinhart has been studying the impact of debt on economies since taking her first job as an economist at Bear Stearns Cos. in 1982, just as the Latin debt crisis was unfolding. She gained further experience in subsequent stints as an economist at the International Monetary Fund. Reinhart collaborated with former IMF chief economist Kenneth Rogoff to publish the 2009 business best-seller This Time Is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly, which shows how the U.S. sub-prime crisis fits an established pattern of debt crises extending back some 800 years and why recovery is likely to be prolonged and painful.
