intense competition on banks and other financial institutions, as a
period of oligopoly ends: more rather than less innovation is
needed to help share undi versifiable risks, with more attention to
correlations between different risks. Charles Goodhart of the
London School of Economics (LSE), while ques tioning the idea that
volatility has increased, concludes that structural changes have
made regulation more problematic and calls for improved information
availability on derivatives transactions. In a thirteen country
case study of the bond market turbulence of 1994, Bo rio and
McCauley of the BIS pin the primary causes of the market decline on
the market's own dynamics rather than on variations in market
participants' apprehensions about economic fundamentals. Colm
Kearney of the Univer sity of Western Sydney, after a six country
study of volatility in economic and financial variables, concludes
that more international collaboration in man aging financial
volatility (other than in foreign exchange markets) is needed in
Europe. Finally, Stokman and Vlaar of the Dutch central bank
investigate the empirical evidence for the interaction between
volatility and international transactions in real and financial
assets for the Netherlands, concluding that such influence depends
on the chosen volatility measure. The authors sug gest that there
are no strong arguments for international restrictions to reduce
volatility. INSTITUTIONAL ISSUES AND PRACTICES The six papers in
Part C focus on what market participants are doing to manage risk.
The book refers to two transitions. Eastern European economies,
including CIS republics, are in the process of transition to a
market economy. EC countries are on the way to implementing an
economic and monetary union and many of them would welcome a
political union. EC countries cannot be separated from EFTA member
countries, nor Europe from the rest of the world. The two
transitions are different in kind, and in some respects are
opposed. While Western Europe is searching for more trade and
monetary integration, i.e. for more globalisation, Eastern
economies are exposed to disintegration. At the same time the East
is influenced by the West and both transitions have some common
challenges: the search for a model of capitalism, intermediate
between laissez-faire and interventionism; the search for
competition as a discipline and for efficiency. The book focuses on
privatization, economic reform, relationships between banks and
industry, the role of the State, the dynamics of banking and
financial sectors, monetary reform, the independence of the central
bank, the European monetary union, and East-West economic and
financial relations. This collection of papers, authored by members
of universities, financial institutions and international
organisations, is of outstanding interest for policy makers,
executives and academics.
Three major challenges confront European policymakers and financial
systems; (1) to preserve and strengthen policy coordination between
the countries participating and the European Monetary System; (2)
to design the future structure of the Economic and Monetary Union;
(3) to implement constructive economic and financial responses to
the major economic and political reform in Eastern Europe. The
purpose of this book is to present a comprehensive analysis of
these challenges, focusing on the relationships between fiscal
policies on the one hand and financial systems on the other. The
basis for the work is formed by the discussions, which took place
at the 16th Colloquium of the Societe Universitaire Europeenne de
Recherches Financieres (SUERF). Private savings and the taxation of
income from capital, imbalances in public sector budgets and their
impact on financial systems, international resource transfers and
the respective roles of governments and private capital flows, and
the policy mix in the transition to Economic and Monetary Union are
central themes of the book. This collection of papers, authored by
members of the university, private financial sector and national
and international policymaking communities, is of central
importance to policymakers, bankers, financial executives, and
academics. "

The rapidly changing structure of financial markets is leading to a
radical shift in the way in which privates sector financial
institutions and firms, and public regulators, are coping with
risk. With markets displaying a high degree of innovation and
volatility, the responsibility for risk management is being placed
increasingly on private sector operators. Following assessments of
the extent of market volatility and risk financial markets, this
volume presents examples of how private institutions are developing
new risk management techniques and case studies from specific
markets including securities markets and retail banking. In
addition, senior central bankers discuss their changing attitude to
risk and regulation and the implications for exchange rate and
monetary policies. The papers are written by authors from many
countries covering a wide range of country experiences: by players
in leading banks and companies; by public officials; and by
academics, providing three differing perspectives on the financial
markets of the 1990s. The four main sections address central bank
perspectives, volatility and risk, institutional issues and
practices, and the policy implications. The volume includes the
1995 Prix Marjolin essay and concludes with the 1995 Marjolin
Lecture, given at the 19th Colloquium of the Societe Universitaire
Europeenne de Recherches Financieres (SUERF) in Thun, Switzerland,
from which the papers are selected. The contributions will be of
considerable interest to those in banks, securities houses, company
treasuries, central banks and regulatory bodies as well as to
academics.
The Competitiveness of Financial Institutions and Centers in Europe
addresses key questions facing European financial markets today. It
relates to the dramatic increase in competition between financial
centres and institutions under the influence of several factors --
the effect of innovation in financial products and technological
processes, widespread deregulation and associated re-regulation
(prudential rules), the implementation of the single market in
Europe and the new strategies of institutions and national
financial centres facing more competitive conditions. Major
subjects include the transfer of fragility from the real economy to
the financial sector, and vice versa, through such channels as
booming financial activities, intense competition and greater
risks, as in property lending, and also the more cautious policies
adopted by financial intermediaries in response to losses in the
recent recession. The papers were contributed by members of
universities, the private financial sector, national and
international policy making communities, and presented at the 18th
Colloquium of the SociA(c)tA(c) Universitaire EuropA(c)enne de
Recherches FinanciA]res, in Dublin, May 1994. They will be of
central importance to policy makers, bankers, financial executives
and academics.
