This book explores how the financial system should be regulated and
structured to achieve the twin goals of inclusive growth and
financial stability, with a focus on African low-income countries
(LICs). The subject and content of this book is original in that it
attempts to draw on the lessons and radical rethinking on the
financial sector in developed and middle income countries, arising
in the wake of the international financial crisis. It includes four
in- depth country case studies, of Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria and
Ethiopia, but also analyses the empirical evidence for Sub-Saharan
Africa as a whole, evaluating the relevance (or not) of such major
changes for the very different financial sectors and economies in
low income countries. Achieving Financial Stability and Growth in
Africa has major academic and policy implications, especially for
low income countries, but also more generally, on broader issues.
These include the desirable size of the financial sector, as well
as more specific issues, such as the high cost of borrowing of
small and medium enterprises in LICs, and possible measures to
reduce it. Highly topical subjects like the appropriate regulation
of the financial sector and management of capital flows are
discussed in depth. Though drawing on comprehensive reviews of the
literature, this volume has the virtue of the large comparative
academic and policy experience of researchers, as well as in-depth
case studies, that take account of institutional and economic
features of low- income countries. Written by senior academics and
policy-makers, this book is a must read for those researching or
participating in the financial sectors of low-income countries, as
well as in developed economies. It is also suitable for those who
study political economy and public finance.
