“…Alternatively, Eichengreen et al (1995) propose to use the Financial Pressure Index (FPI) to measure the gross foreign exchange reserves of the Central Bank and the repo rate (Sevim et al, 2014). Currency crises are thus identified as the FPI raises more than 1.5 (Kibritcioglu et al, 1999), 2 (Eichengreen et al, 1995;Bussiere and Fratzscher, 2006), 2.5 (Edison, 2003) or, 3 (Kaminsky and Reinhart, 1999;Berg and Pattillo, 1999;Duan and Bajona, 2008)) standard deviations from its long-term mean. In the context of stock EWS, market crashes are indicated by the CMAX index falling below its mean by 2 (Coudert and Gex, 2008), 2.5 (Li et al, 2015), or 3 (Fu et al, 2019) standard deviations.…”
