Abstract
We study the macroeconomic consequences of financial shocks and increase in economic risk using a quantile vector autoregression. Financial shocks have a negative, but asymmetric impact on the real economy: they substantially increase growth at risk, but have limited impact on upside potential. The impact of financial shocks is explained away after controlling for economic risk (measured by the interquantile range). The effects are economically relevant. Bad economic environment, characterized by negative real and financial shocks, has a highly skewed impact on business cycle fluctuations, leading to a peak reduction of monthly industrial production by more than 2%. In comparison, positive real and financial shocks in a good economic environment have limited effect on upside potential of the economy.

Abstract
This paper investigates the relation between monetary conditions and the excess returns arising from currency carry trades. The results indicate that carry trade average return, Sharpe ratio and downside risk differ substantially across monetary conditions before the onset of the financial crisis in 2008. Specifically, expansive policy shifts in the US result in a decrease in inter-national risk aversion, which in turn leads to a compression in currency risk premia and higher carry trade returns. By contrast, Fed monetary policy is not able to affect international risk aversion and carry trade returns during the crisis and Zero Lower Bound (ZLB) period, when the economic recession reduced the propensity of investors to take on risk exposures.
