Answer to Question 1

Exchange rate crisis typically start when participants in financial markets believe a currency may soon be devalued. Defending the parity then requires very high interest rates, with the potentially large adverse macroeconomic effects. These adverse effects may force the country to devalue, even if there were no initial plans for such a devaluation.

Answer to Question 2

it depends Whether the saving rate must increase, decrease, or remain constant depends on what the current saving rate is compared to the golden rule saving rate. If s < sg, the saving rate must increase to increase steady state consumption. If s > sg, the opposite must occur.
