Episodes of QE are examined separately, with the last episode divided between pre- and post-tapering. We find evidence that QE was associated with an increase in capital inflow, while tapering was associated with a period of retrenchment. The magnitude of the impact varied by different episodes of QE and the types of assets (bonds or equities). Our results show that the EU countries behaved differently than the EMEs. We also find support for the importance of "pull factors" and individual country characteristics for capital inflows. However, the paper shows that episodes of QE accounted for most of the variation in capital inflows during 2008-2014. G20 statements during the episodes of QE show that countries are increasingly cognizant of their inability to control flows and have thus called for better monetary policy coordination to avoid excessive volatility and negative spillovers. 000294962 700__ $$aKhatiwada, Sameer 000294962 8564_ $$9fee3bc21-bd12-4e15-8e28-03beba728fd6$$s1419508$$uhttps://repository.graduateinstitute.ch/record/294962/files/HEIDWP02-2017.pdf 000294962 8564_ $$9e69fa037-30e9-4a20-b282-5073c7644eab$$xpdfa$$s2776603$$uhttps://repository.graduateinstitute.ch/record/294962/files/HEIDWP02-2017.pdf?subformat=pdfa 000294962 901__ $$uInternational Economics Department$$0319285 000294962 909CO $$ooai:repository.graduateinstitute.ch:294962$$pGLOBAL_SET$$pIHEID:Explore 000294962 937__ $$aWP-2017-062 000294962 980__ $$aWP
