The disadvantage of Open economies is that trading goods and services which the country domestically specializes in could be a drawback since they might fall short of the supply of those goods and services according to the required demand. a good example of this is Thailand. The country specializes mainly in stable food such as rice production .excessive exporting to raise money and capital causes a shortage of supply for the domestic consumers. It creates low interest rates and subsidies .When Americans invested in housing in other countries they didn't benefit fully from investment because there is a split between the people who own the capital and the owners of labor it created debt, the money was tied up in housing.with an open economy there is no gain through foreign exchange either.
