Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenya has the opportunities and resources to stimulate sustainable economic growth and development, but its potential has been constrained by under-investment and low firm-level productivity. Altogether, its development has not been sufficiently sustainable or equitable to transform the lives of ordinary citizens. Poverty remains high, with thirty-six percent of Kenyans living under the national poverty line, whereas the richest ten percent of the population receive forty percent of the nation's income. This country private sector diagnostic (CPSD) sheds light on how the private sector can more effectively contribute to advancing the country's developmental goals. Applying a sectoral lens, it puts forward operational recommendations highlighting strategic entry points for diversification and growth and addresses key constraints to private sector engagement. It also seeks to inform World Bank and IFC strategies, paving the way for joint programming to create markets and unlock private sector potential.

Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. Presenting rigorous and original research, this volume offers key insights into the historical, cultural, social, economic and political forces at play in the creation of world-class ICT innovations in Kenya. Following the arrival of fiber-optic cables in 2009, Digital Kenya examines why the initial entrepreneurial spirit and digital revolution has begun to falter despite support from motivated entrepreneurs, international investors, policy experts and others. Written by engaged scholars and professionals in the field, the book offers 15 eye-opening chapters and 14 one-on-one conversations with entrepreneurs and investors to ask why establishing ICT start-ups on a continental and global scale remains a challenge on the “Silicon Savannah”. The authors present evidence-based recommendations to help Kenya to continue producing globally impactful ICT innovations that improve the lives of those still waiting on the side-lines, and to inspire other nations to do the same.

Book Synopsis Capital Markets Development in Emerging Economies by : Samuel Onyuma
Download or read book Capital Markets Development in Emerging Economies written by Samuel Onyuma and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the many efforts undertaken to foster financial development, capital markets in many developing economies remain underdeveloped. These reforms have not catapult the development of these markets to global standards. New stock exchanges are being created every year in Africa, but these markets remain shallow in listing and liquidity, with high volatility. Thus policymakers have no clear guidance on how to promote securities market development. Scholars are also widely divided on measures of market development, as well as, the factors which influence the level of market development. These issues are even more aggravated given the poor understanding of securities markets in developing countries. This book examines the institutional, market microstructural and macroeconomic determinants of securities market development in Kenya. Finance scholars interested in studying securities market development will find it a useful learning and research reference material. Capital markets regulators and management interested in developing their markets will also find the book important in designing reform prescriptions targeted at promoting market development.
Book Synopsis Adoption of Equity Derivative Markets in Kenya [MBA Thesis a Ccompanied by a CD-ROM] by :
Download or read book Adoption of Equity Derivative Markets in Kenya [MBA Thesis a Ccompanied by a CD-ROM] written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to establish the perceived benefits derived from the equity derivative market, the critical success factors that might affect the adoption of efficient and successful equity derivative markets and the measures that could be adopted for a successful equity derivative market in Kenya. The descriptive and inferential study design was applied to a target population of 19 NSE member firms as well as CMA staff. Data was collected by use of questionnaires in May and June 2014. The data was analysed by use of descriptive statistics and inferences drawn by use of correlation analysis. Data was presented by use of tables and graphs. The findings indicate that equity derivatives would create efficiency in the capital markets especially due to the increased market scrutiny, price discovery mechanisms for the underlying equity instruments as well as boost fund performance. Additionally the financial instruments would increase investment opportunities both in the local domain and the international financial market. Consequently the instruments would reduce market transaction costs and investor risks as well as market volatility. Equity derivatives would offer employment opportunities, increase scrutiny in the capital markets thus fostering fair transactions, offer a variety of investment opportunities to investors as well as increase stability and liquidity in the capital markets. The most prominent challenge posed by the introduction of equity derivatives would be market capitalization, market turnover especially on the levels of liquidity. In addition the complex nature of the instruments would require skilled personnel in the sector, unfortunately a deficiency in skilled personnel was a challenge foreseen. The monetary and fiscal policy in their current state would not be efficient in the handling of the market. Additionally, the lack of good political resolve would?ve impeded the development of the equity derivative market coupled with single ownership and dispute resolution mechanism; unless these were resolved the equity derivative market would not thrive. The measures that needed to be set up prior introduction of Equity derivatives were; training of derivatives handlers and the sensitization of the investors. There was a crucial need to enact specific laws in a bid to foster investor trust. Full demutualization of the market as well as formation of joint ventures was crucial in that it was bound to promote investor trust and benefit from information and physical hardware respectively. Full information disclosure was vital for the market growth. In addition there was a need to cultivate good political will to foster investments as well as creating autonomy in the supervisory body mandated with policing this specific market. The recommendations from the study were; a need for government intervention to create awareness to investors and foster the training of investment advisors, the government also needed to set up sound financial infrastructure especially in the monetary and policy frameworks in a bid to influence the macro-economic policies and consequently have an increase in local investments as well as foreign investments, the need for enactment of laws specifically targeting equity derivative markets as well was a major factor that needed to be addressed before the establishment of the equity derivative market.

Book Synopsis Ensuring Quality to Gain Access to Global Markets by : Martin Kellermann
Download or read book Ensuring Quality to Gain Access to Global Markets written by Martin Kellermann and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a modern world with rapidly growing international trade, countries compete less based on the availability of natural resources, geographical advantages, and lower labor costs and more on factors related to firms' ability to enter and compete in new markets. One such factor is the ability to demonstrate the quality and safety of goods and services expected by consumers and confirm compliance with international standards. To assure such compliance, a sound quality infrastructure (QI) ecosystem is essential. Jointly developed by the World Bank Group and the National Metrology Institute of Germany, this guide is designed to help development partners and governments analyze a country's quality infrastructure ecosystems and provide recommendations to design and implement reforms and enhance the capacity of their QI institutions.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Miracle of the Market by : Robert H. Bates
Download or read book Beyond the Miracle of the Market written by Robert H. Bates and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-09 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As capitalism defeated socialism in Eastern Europe, the market displaced the state in the developing world. In Beyond the Miracle of the Market, first published in 2005, Bates focuses on Kenya, a country that continued to grow while others declined in Africa, and mounts a prescient critique of the neo-classical turn in development economics. Attributing Kenya's exceptionalism to its economic institutions, this book pioneers the use of 'new institutionalism' in the field of development. In doing so, however, the author accuses the approach of being apolitical. Institutions introduce power into economic life. To account for their impact, economic analysis must therefore be complemented by political analysis; micro-economics must be imbedded in political science. In making this argument, Bates relates Kenya's subsequent economic decline to the change from the Kenyatta to the Moi regime and the subsequent use of the power of economic institutions to redistribute rather than to create wealth.
Book Synopsis Making Markets in the Welfare State by : Jane R. Gingrich
Download or read book Making Markets in the Welfare State written by Jane R. Gingrich and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past three decades, market reforms have transformed public services such as education, health, and care of the elderly. Whereas previous studies present markets as having similar and largely non-political effects, this book shows that political parties structure markets in diverse ways to achieve distinct political aims. Left-wing attempts to sustain the legitimacy of the welfare state are compared with right-wing wishes to limit the state and empower the private sector. Examining a broad range of countries, time periods, and policy areas, Jane R. Gingrich helps readers make sense of the complexity of market reforms in the industrialized world. The use of innovative multi-case studies and in-depth interviews with senior European policymakers enriches the debate and brings clarity to this multifaceted topic. Scholars and students working on the policymaking process in this central area will be interested in this new conceptualization of market reform.
