Most studies focus on developed countries and compare bank-based and market-based systems. Debates over the relative merits of the two systems have relied on case studies of Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, countries with similar long-run growth rates. The absence of data on developing countries limits the usefulness of such studies for policy makers.The book contains recently acquired cross-country data from almost 150 countries. It includes information on the size, efficiency, and activity of banks, insurance companies, pension and mutual funds, finance companies, and stock and bond markets. It also incorporates information on each country's political, economic, and social environment. The chapters contain a mix of case studies, cross-country studies, macro- and micro-oriented approaches, and analytical and empirical work. The conclusions point not to markets versus banks, but to markets and banks. It is how well a financial system functions that is critical for long-run economic growth. The research suggests that strong legal rights for outside investors and the overall efficiency of contract enforcement are effective tools for developing the financial sector and the economy. The book includes a CD containing World Bank data. 001385918 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001385918 650_0 $$aBanks and banking$$vCase studies. 001385918 650_0 $$aFinancial institutions$$vCase studies. 001385918 650_0 $$aStock exchanges$$vCase studies. 001385918 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$vCase studies. 001385918 653__ $$aBancos$$aEstudio de casos. 001385918 653__ $$aInstituciones financieras$$aEstudio de casos. 001385918 653__ $$aBolsa de valores$$aEstudio de casos. 001385918 653__ $$aDesarrollo económico$$aEstudio de casos. 001385918 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Finance 001385918 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Trade & Development 001385918 653__ $$aECONOMICS/International Economics 001385918 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001385918 7001_ $$aDemirgüç-Kunt, Aslı,$$d1961- 001385918 7001_ $$aLevine, Ross. 001385918 852__ $$bebk 001385918 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/3001.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001385918 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001385918 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1385918$$pGLOBAL_SET 001385918 980__ $$aBIB 001385918 980__ $$aEBOOK 001385918 982__ $$aEbook 001385918 983__ $$aOnline
