Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:We examine how financial institutions affect growth, taking into the account the organisational features of the financial system namely systems characterised by strong financial intermediaries and systems where the financial markets assume a more important role. We use a panel of 24 developed and developing countries over the 70s, 80s and 90s, to evaluate the existence of possible links between the type of preponderant financial system (bank-based or more capital markets based) and economic growth.
