As investment capital has shown increasing disregard for
national boundaries, the flow of information on financial markets
has become both more complex and more problematic. At the same
time, the speed with which markets now respond to events and
financial conditions in all parts of the world makes accurate,
up-to-the-moment information a crucial element in the investment
and accounting picture. This book explores some of the most
important effects of information on world financial markets.
Written by an international group of specialists, it takes the
form of a dialogue. Each of the five chapters dealing with specific
topics is followed by the comments of another writer who offers a
slightly different perspective. The first chapter examines the
effect of enhanced public disclosure on the welfare of participants
in the marketplace. The second chapter provides a framework for
analyzing the effects of the globalization of information,
particularly the ways in which it influences rates of real interest
among countries. Subjects addressed in the chapters that follow
include compensating for imperfect information in foreign currency
investment and the impact of financial forecasts on stock prices.
An authoritative treatment that clarifies some of the most complex
issues surrounding the globalization of capital investment, this
book will be of particular value to international financial
analysts and investment advisers.
