Workshop

Developing Bond Markets in Latin America and the Caribbean:
Analytical Framework and Issues for the Region

August 9, 2002

Inter-American Development Bank Headquarters, Washington D.C.

The main objective of this Workshop was to discuss the importance, benefits and difficulties inherent in developing strong and effective domestic debt and capital markets and how this relates to broader economic and development themes, seen through the experience of selected countries in the region. The Workshop was also  intended to be the first stage in a continuing initiative to exchange ideas and learning between IDB staff members and experts from the Region.

The Workshop helped: (i) to provide training and orientation for IDB staff members working in financial markets and modernization of the state as well as staff that would be interested to prepare them for a potentially more active role in the area of bond markets development, and (ii) to strengthen the relationship with and among high level policy makers responsible of bond market development in countries of the region.
