About the Book

Under growing pressure from within and outside their economies, countries around the world have recently embarked upon wide-ranging programmes of financial reform. This major Handbook provides country studies of the latest developments in financial reform in a selection of both developed and developing countries from Western Europe, North America, South America, Asia and Australia, written by acknowledged experts in their fields. The outcome is an up-to-date, authoritative and comprehensive account of the current world-wide attempt to refashion the way in which the financial services industry (and especially the banking sector) is regulated and supervised. The contributors find that programmes of reform have embraced all or most of the following elements: central bank reform changes in the legal operating environment and market pressures for mergers consolidation demutualisation supervisory reform measures such as the introduction of explicit deposit insurance schemes. This comprehensive reference work contains a wealth of up-to-date knowledge, presented in an accessible manner and with a standardised format. It will be of interest to scholars of central banking and international banking reforms as well as policymakers, legislators, practitioners and organisations from the banking world.

Review :
'The editor did an excellent job in editing this Handbook. . . each chapter gives a very clear and highly informative account of how each country struggles during a crisis and manages to reform their financial industry, as well as the supervision that goes alongside it. What makes this Handbook great reading is the formula followed almost faithfully by all the contributors of the book.'
