Banking and Finance Issues in Emerging Markets cover

The banking and finance sectors are relevant shares of modern economies and indeed drivers of growth in emerging economies. The majority of existing economic and finance textbooks focus on concepts and theories with briefly exposited real-world examples for illustration. This book, which collects chapters that are the contributions of the acknowledged experts in their fields, fills this gap by featuring in-depth analyses on prominent real-world topics in banking and finance. The book’s applications of econometrics present insightful perspectives on the recent development of banking issues, stock market contagion, the impact of internet technology (IT) on stock markets, financial innovation and technology firms, and an international perspective on the loan puzzle and interest rate adjustment in emerging markets. In addition to exhaustive case studies on banking and finance in India, Hong Kong, Japan, and other Asian emerging markets, the authors coherently contribute an intellectual advancement of contemporary issues in banking and finance literature. The authors offer an essential reading and source of reference for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate courses in economics and finance.

This volume brings together 11 chapters on banking and finance issues in emerging markets, with a focus on Asia. Economics, finance, and other scholars from Asia, the UK, and the US examine economic and exchange rate integration among the ASEAN-5 (Association of Southeast Asian Nations), including Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand; the macroeconomic effects of renminbi internationalization; the dynamic connectedness in emerging Asian equity markets; the significance of real and financial links in instigating stock market contagion; deposit rate asymmetry and Edgeworth cycles after Hong Kong's interest rate deregulation; the international banking crisis and problems in India; the loan puzzle in emerging markets; Japanese banks' overseas investments in emerging markets; the role of financial technology and disrupting the existing traditional banking system; acceptance of financial technology in Thailand in terms of algorithm trading; and financial innovation and technology firms. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
The book edited by William A. Barnett and Bruno S. Sergi is well embedded in international literature on banking and financial issues related to the realities of the emerging markets.
