Abstract Financial globalization, the integration of countries with the global financial system, has increased substantially since the 1970s and particularly with more force since the 1990s. Financial globalization has shown to pose both benefits and risks to developed countries and developing countries alike. The Handbook of Financial Globalization aims at analyzing this process of financial globalization, from its driving forces to its consequences. In this overview chapter, we provide a brief summary of the chapters reviewing the empirical evidence on globalization and crises.
