Banking market integration in the Asia Pacific has greatly
accelerated in recent years, in an environment of many other rapid
advances in banking and finance. This has increased competition
between domestic and foreign banks, and made the measurement of
bank efficiency, competition, and liquidity creation a critical
issue for both policy makers and bank managers. This book
investigates important policy-related issues in Asia Pacific
banking. It analyses the link between competition and stability,
examining the cases of fourteen Asia Pacific countries between 2003
and 2010, and goes on to discuss whether bank shareholder value is
influenced by cost and profit efficiency changes over time. The
authors explore the different ways in which banks in Asia-Pacific
create liquidity, and whether this is linked to capital generation.
This book provides valuable insight for researchers, policy makers
and bank managers with an interest in financial rationalization,
restructuring and consolidation.

Financial Innovation Philip Molyneux and Nidal Shamroukh Over the
past twenty years there has been a massive increase in the
development of new financial instruments, many of which have been
off-balance-sheet activities. These instruments have become
increasingly complex, placing higher demand on both the purchasers
and the creators of such instruments. The risks involved and the
penalties paid by those who have not adequately understood these
products are well known. This book discusses in detail, through a
blend of theory and empirical research, the processes of innovation
and the diffusion of new financial instruments. It relates the
theoretical approaches to innovation to current practice, producing
and testing models for innovation and the diffusion of new
financial products. Finance/Economic
