A further problem is that these exercises rarely address the implications of national policies for third countries and the international system. Article IV surveillance of the United States during the sub-prime mortgage boom said little about the dangers posed by such lending for international financial markets.
还有一个更深的问题。有关条款基本上忽略了国内政策对其他国家乃至国际体系的影响。根据第四条款对美国次贷泡沫期的监测很少提到，此类放贷行为可能会给国际金融市场造成什么样的风险。关于中国的第四条款监测报告同样也很少提到该国货币政策对全球收支失衡的影响。
