Well functioning financial markets are one of the most important factors for economic development and growth. The Inter-American Development Bank Group collaborates with governments and the private sector to reduce financial market deficiencies and devote significant resources to financial market development. This effort was reflected in more than 160 projects approved for 25 countries that total almost US$18 billion between 1990 and 2002. Most of the operations supported financial intermediation, capital markets, insurance markets, pension reform, housing finance, debt reduction, and, more generally, financial market deepening.
This fourth issue of Financial Market Development offers a general view of the activities of the Bank Group that supported financial market development in Latin America and the Caribbean during the period 1990-2002. A consolidated description of the activities undertaken in the period is also included, which illustrates the contributions of the Bank Group in the financial market area. The report, which is published every two years, concludes with some comments on how the Bank Group expects to continue its support.
Edgardo Demaestri and Juan José Durante have prepared this fourth edition of Financial Market Development.
