Description

The essays in this volume seek to provide an understanding of the key issues that should be kept in mind in reforming and modernizing financial systems. They also explore various policy proposals for the development of an institutional framework which will ensure the safety of the payment system, the competitive nature of financial services firms and the incentive for prudent risk taking and sound portfolio investments.
