Is that correct? I thought it was shown that the vol increase was a weakness of the measure and not necessarily increased correlations. Contagion situations do cause higher correlations but it is often very hard to prove contagion.

That's what I'm getting confused about. On one hand, it states that during periods of crises, the correlations increase which is ironic when you use emerging markets as diversifiers.

Then they state a rebuttal stating that, in fact that correlations do NOT increase, rather it's just a case of increased volatilities?

Or am I way off base?

That's exactly the way I read it. Correlations increase but it is an error in the way correlations are measured as volatility the denominator increases so covariances/correlations do not actually increase.

Literally the next pages contradicts the page before it.

I will go with these answers based on CFAI mock.
