Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The positive effects of financial development on economic growth have encouraged researchers to study the determinants of financial development. Based on the theoretical and empirical studies undertaken, institutions, openness of trade and financial markets, legal tradition, and political economy are identified as factors promoting the financial system. Of these, political economy factors, which can have both direct and indirect effects through other determinants, could be considered the most influential factors in financial development. Variations in the political economy of countries could well explain variations in their financial development. Although all studies show the significant effects of these determinants on financial development, further research is needed to assess the impact of each determinant and the policies that could best promote financial development.

Book excerpt: "As the world has witnessed the worst financial crisis and climate crisis of our age, during the period of 2007-2009, the issues surrounding the emergence and development of financial markets and carbon markets is becoming an increasingly significant area of research and debate worldwide. By engaging with recently developed methods of research and new areas of practice, this book investigates the political, economic, policy and geographic determinants of the development of financial markets. The volume examines the causality between financial development and aggregate private investment from an economic perspective. It also explores the consequences of political liberalization, focusing on the impact of institutional improvement on financial development. It studies what stimulates governments to initiate reforms aimed at boosting financial development, and analyses the determinants of carbon markets in developing countries from a geographic point of view. This book is essential reading for all interested in economic and financial development, climate change, environmental economics, and applied econometrics"--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Financial Development, Impact on Output and Its Determinants by : Abdulsalam Abubakar
Download or read book Financial Development, Impact on Output and Its Determinants written by Abdulsalam Abubakar and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of financial development to influence the capital accumulation, productivity and hence economic growth, has continued to take a centre stage in the economic growth literature. The apparent low level of economic performance of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) region, low physical and human capital accumulations and low productivity have raised issues about the role of financial development to the economic growth process of the region and serve as the motivation of this study. The study investigates the impact of financial development on the output of eleven ECOWAS member states over the period from 1980 to 2011. The determinants of financial development in ECOWAS from 1996 to 2011 period are also examined. The study employs panel cointegration techniques, which involve panel cointegration tests by Pedroni (2000; 2004) and Kao (1999) and two panel cointegration estimators, namely; the fully modified OLS (FMOLS) and dynamic OLS (DOLS). Furthermore, the study adopts the Dumitrescu-Hurlin (2012) panel causality test to determine the causal relationship between financial development and output in ECOWAS. The findings show that broad money and financial sector deposits have negative and significant impact on the output, as found by Hakeem (2010) in sub-Saharan African region. On the other hand, banking sector deposits, domestic credit, bank credit and the ratio of bank credit to bank deposits are found to have positive and significant impact on output in ECOWAS. This is consistent with the findings of Ndebbio (2003) and Gaye (2013). These effects are largely transmitted through the physical capital accumulation channel, as found by Rioja and Valev (2003) in developing countries. The empirical evidence further shows that whereas unidirectional causality runs from GDP to broad money and bank deposits, the reverse is the case for bank credit and ratio of bank credit to bank deposits. Similarly, bidirectional causality is found to exist between financial sector deposit and domestic credit on one hand, and GDP on the other hand. These findings are consistent with that of Bangke and Eggoh (2010). For determinants of financial development, inflation, institutional quality and current account openness are found to be the major determinants of financial depth. While financial intermediation activities are determined by a combination of the previous factors and the level of income and human capital accumulation. These findings largely explain the connection between lack of access to finance by a larger segment of the household and private sectors in the ECOWAS and the low levels of output in the region. Hence, the major policy implications are that financial policies in the region should aim at eliminating and/or mitigating factors that hinder access to finance. These can be achieved through, economic, legal, political and other institutional reforms, which can also enhance financial development in the region and position it to better serve the real economy.

Book Synopsis Financial Determinants of High-Growth Companies by : Blaž Frešer
Download or read book Financial Determinants of High-Growth Companies written by Blaž Frešer and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the factors that contribute to high corporate growth, presenting a new conceptual model for research into this phenomenon. Building on existing research, the authors present a new conceptual research model that links multidimensional variables, such as entrepreneurial orientation, and human capital, with the perceived availability of different forms of financing for high-growth companies and with the measures that these firms take to overcome financial constraints and thus influence their financial performance. With this model the authors aim to enhance our understanding of the specifics of financing high growth companies and demonstrate how the availability of financial resources is one of the most important determinants of promoting development and enterprise growth. Empirically tested on a random sample of high-growth companies from Slovenia, the book seeks to make a contribution to research and enhance our understanding of the various factors involved in high growth firms.
Book Synopsis What Matters for Financial Development and Stability? by : Raja Almarzoqi
Download or read book What Matters for Financial Development and Stability? written by Raja Almarzoqi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to identify policies that influence the development of financial institutions as measured across three dimensions: depth, efficiency, and stability. Applying the concept of the financial possibility frontier, developed by Beck & Feyen (2013) and formalized by Barajas et al (2013a), we determine key policy variables affecting the gap between actual levels of development and benchmarks predicted by structural variables. Our dynamic panel estimation shows that inflation, trade openness, institutional quality, and banking crises significantly affect financial development. Our analysis also helps identify potential complementarities and trade-offs for policy makers, based on the effect of the policy variables across the different dimensions of financial development.

Book Synopsis Determinants of Commercial Bank Interest Margins and Profitability by : Asl? Demirgüç-Kunt
Download or read book Determinants of Commercial Bank Interest Margins and Profitability written by Asl? Demirgüç-Kunt and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1998 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: March 1998 Differences in interest margins reflect differences in bank characteristics, macroeconomic conditions, existing financial structure and taxation, regulation, and other institutional factors. Using bank data for 80 countries for 1988-95, Demirgüç-Kunt and Huizinga show that differences in interest margins and bank profitability reflect various determinants: * Bank characteristics. * Macroeconomic conditions. * Explicit and implicit bank taxes. * Regulation of deposit insurance. * General financial structure. * Several underlying legal and institutional indicators. Controlling for differences in bank activity, leverage, and the macroeconomic environment, they find (among other things) that: * Banks in countries with a more competitive banking sector-where banking assets constitute a larger share of GDP-have smaller margins and are less profitable. The bank concentration ratio also affects bank profitability; larger banks tend to have higher margins. * Well-capitalized banks have higher net interest margins and are more profitable. This is consistent with the fact that banks with higher capital ratios have a lower cost of funding because of lower prospective bankruptcy costs. * Differences in a bank's activity mix affect spread and profitability. Banks with relatively high noninterest-earning assets are less profitable. Also, banks that rely largely on deposits for their funding are less profitable, as deposits require more branching and other expenses. Similarly, variations in overhead and other operating costs are reflected in variations in bank interest margins, as banks pass their operating costs (including the corporate tax burden) on to their depositors and lenders. * In developing countries foreign banks have greater margins and profits than domestic banks. In industrial countries, the opposite is true. * Macroeconomic factors also explain variation in interest margins. Inflation is associated with higher realized interest margins and greater profitability. Inflation brings higher costs-more transactions and generally more extensive branch networks-and also more income from bank float. Bank income increases more with inflation than bank costs do. * There is evidence that the corporate tax burden is fully passed on to bank customers in poor and rich countries alike. * Legal and institutional differences matter. Indicators of better contract enforcement, efficiency in the legal system, and lack of corruption are associated with lower realized interest margins and lower profitability. This paper-a product of the Development Research Group-is part of a larger effort in the group to study bank efficiency.

Book excerpt: "This paper reviews, appraises, and critiques theoretical and empirical research on the connections between the operation of the financial system and economic growth. While subject to ample qualifications and countervailing views, the preponderance of evidence suggests that both financial intermediaries and markets matter for growth and that reverse causality alone is not driving this relationship. Furthermore, theory and evidence imply that better developed financial systems ease external financing constraints facing firms, which illuminates one mechanism through which financial development influences economic growth. The paper highlights many areas needing additional research"--NBER website
Book Synopsis Capital Inflows, Financial Development, and Domestic Investment by : Ms.Oana Luca
Download or read book Capital Inflows, Financial Development, and Domestic Investment written by Ms.Oana Luca and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine determinants of, and interactions between, capital inflows, financial development, and domestic investment in developing countries during 2001-07, a period of surging global liquidity and low interest rates. Reductions in the global price of risk and in domestic borrowing costs were the main contributors to the increase over time in net capital inflows and domestic credit. However, the large cross-country differences in domestic and international finance are best explained by fundamentals such as institutional quality, access to international export markets, and an appropriate macroeconomic policy. Both private capital inflows and domestic credit exert a positive effect on investment; they also mediate most of the investment impact of the global price of risk and domestic borrowing costs. Surprisingly, neither greater domestic credit nor greater institutional quality increase the extent to which capital inflows translate into domestic investment.
Book Synopsis Determinants of Financial Development. A Case Study of Pakistan by : Beenish Shabbir
Download or read book Determinants of Financial Development. A Case Study of Pakistan written by Beenish Shabbir and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to investigate the determinants of financial development in case of Pakistan. Data collected during the time period of 1995-2015. Regression analysis and correlation analyses has been used for the interpretation of results. Five factors have been tested to measure their impact on financial development. Inflation, trade openness, market capitalization, investment rate and interest rate have been used to measure their role as determinants of financial development. Empirical findings indicate that all variables inflation, trade openness, market capitalization, investment rate and interest rate have significant impact on financial development. This study is beneficial for policy makers, researchers and financial institutions. However it has several limitations as only five variables have been tested only in the perspective of a developing country.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Determinants of economic growth: An overview Thijs de Ruyter van Steveninck, Nico van der Windt, and Maaike Oosterbaan Netherlands Economic Institute What causes economic growth? Why have some countries grown much faster than others? Why do some countries not grow at all, or even experience negative (per capita) growth rates? What can governments do to raise the growth rates of their country? These questions were discussed at a conference on March 23 and 24, 1998, organized by the Netherlands Economic Institute (NEI) on behalf of the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This book contains the proceedings of the conference. Economic growth is widely considered as a necessary (though not sufficient) condition for poverty alleviation. During the past two decades, scholars and researchers have found a renewed interest in thinking about economic growth, and advances in the understanding of economic growth have taken place. On the one hand, the theoretical understanding of growth has progressed on various fronts, including endogenous technological innovation and increasing returns to scale; the interaction of population, fertility, human capital, and growth; international spill-overs in technology and capital accumulation; and the role of institutions. On the other hand, the increasing availability and use of data sets has given a large incentive to empirical research on cross-country growth, following the path-breaking work ofBarro (1991).

Book Synopsis Financialization and the Economy by : Agata Gemzik-Salwach
Download or read book Financialization and the Economy written by Agata Gemzik-Salwach and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There can be no doubt that the influence of the financial sphere has intensified rapidly in recent years, but there is much debate about the effect of that influence. The aftermath of the Financial Crisis has led to numerous discussions of the phenomenon of so-called financialization: the increasing impact of financial institutions on the activity of all business entities; emerging threats related with dynamically developing financial markets and the growing importance of financial themes. In light of these issues, which appear in all economies and touch all entities and every area of economic activity, there is a need for a summary and evaluation of the role of financialization in the world today. This monograph presents the role of financialization in the modern world. It shows positive as well as negative effects of financialization on the stability of the whole economy, the functioning of different types of markets, activity of enterprises, state institutions and behaviours of households. Written by expert contributors, this book plays an important role in the debate concerning future directions of development of the financial sector and financial markets. Financialization and the Economy is of great importance to those who study political economy, macroeconomics and banking.
