Finance, governance and economic performance in Pacific and South East Asia

edited by David G. Dickinson (Director of Money, Banking and Finance and Senior Lecturer), J.L. Ford (Professor Emeritus, Department of Economics), the late M.J. Fry (formerly Department of Accounting and Finance), Andrew W. Mullineux (The Business School, University of Birmingham), and S. Sen (Professor of Development Economics and Head, Department of Economics, University of Birmingham, UK)

Finance, Governance and Economic Performance in Pacific and South East Asia focuses on key aspects of government policy, financial systems and their links to the economic miracle in Pacific and South East Asia. It also considers the financial crises that have affected those economies and their economic progress. The contributors examine the success of governance in the form of government involvement with the macroeconomy and with the deregulation of markets. Attention is drawn not only to the need for further liberalisation, but also the need to introduce regulatory structures to produce orderly markets. The book includes contributions on financial market opening in developing countries, the impact of FDI on the economic growth of the ASEAN economies, governance, human capital, labour and endogenous growth in Asia Pacific and lessons from the financial crisis as well as an overview of finance, development and growth. This book will be welcomed by those interested in financial economics and reform, the recent Asian crisis, and growth and development in the region
