The expectation of a bailout by the International Monetary Fund has led investors to become increasingly blasé about the levels of risk they are taking in investing in emerging markets. This phenomenon is known in economists’ circles as “moral hazard” - it basically means that the link between risk and reward is being severed, which leads people to invest their money in less stable financial institutions, who in turn distribute it in bad risk loans (such as to Indonesia’s crony capitalists). The argument states that if people fully understood the levels of risk they were taking with their investments, they would invest in safer vehicles with less likelihood of default but somewhat diminished returns. The real risk of moral hazard is that good risks - such as a domestic community redevelopment project - might be unable to get funding because the available funds are being invested in risky projects abroad.
