One of the key constraints to accelerated economic performance in
developing countries is, in the authors' view, the absence of
strong, dynamic financial systems. Many, if not most, developing
countries suffer from repressed financial systems. Thus the most
important step in effecting the development of capital markets is
to lay a foundation of sound macroeconomic and regulatory policies
conducive to financial sector development. This book presents an
approach to financial sector reform composed of financial sector
diagnosis, policy and institutional targeting, macroeconomic
reforms, bank regulation and supervisory reform, and privatization.
The work also presents criteria to help decision-makers apply the
approach. The issues and approaches presented are as relevant to
the emerging democracies of Eastern Europe and such transitional
countries as Brazil and Mexico as they are to developing countries.
The authors begin with an introductory discussion of the
two-pronged strategy of financial reform and privatization and
then, in chapter 2, provide an overview of developing financial
systems. Chapter 3 discusses the public/private debate. Chapter 4
is devoted to financial sector liberalization, and chapter 5 goes
on to discuss the privatization of financial institutions. A
framework for financial reform and privatization is presented in
chapter 6, and chapter 7 provides concluding comments. In addition,
a series of case studies are presented in the appendix. These case
studies demonstrate the methods and strategies used to address
financial sector reform in Bangladesh, Chile, Guinea, Jamaica,
Mexico, and the Philippines. This book will be useful to financial
and development experts and to policy makers in countries amenable
to changing their financial systems. It would also be appropriate
for courses in international economics, international banking,
international monetary issues, international finance, and economic
development.
