Book Securitization in India

Download or read book Securitization in India written by Jennifer Romero-Torres and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India needs to spend close to Rs43 trillion (about $646 billion) on infrastructure through to 2022. Such a staggering requirement cannot be met though traditional sources such as public sector bank loans. India must immediately explore and quickly ramp up financing from alternative investment sources.

Book Securitization and the Global Economy

Download or read book Securitization and the Global Economy written by Bonnie G. Buchanan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the controversial issue of securitization in a global, historical context. It traces its origins and compares evidence of securitization across countries, linking differences to variations in legal, political, and cultural regimes. By incorporating the history and current status of securitization (including sources of value and risk) with alternative markets and future outlooks for the global market, Buchanan provides an overall assessment of the costs, benefits, and sustainability of securitization in the global economy, particularly in the aftermath of the 2007-2009 financial crisis. The book also offers a roadmap for future research. As financial regulators around the world plan a sweeping overhaul of securitization markets with tough new rules designed to restore market confidence, it is essential to consider the global outlook for securitization.

Book Emerging Capital Markets and Globalization

Download or read book Emerging Capital Markets and Globalization written by Augusto de la Torre and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006-10-20 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in the early 1990s, economists and policy makers had high expectations about the prospects for domestic capital market development in emerging economies, particularly in Latin America. Unfortunately, they are now faced with disheartening results. Stock and bond markets remain illiquid and segmented. Debt is concentrated at the short end of the maturity spectrum and denominated in foreign currency, exposing countries to maturity and currency risk. Capital markets in Latin America look particularly underdeveloped when considering the many efforts undertaken to improve the macroeconomic environment and to reform the institutions believed to foster capital market development. The disappointing performance has made conventional policy recommendations questionable, at best. 'Emerging Capital Markets and Globalization' analyzes where we stand and where we are heading on capital market development. First, it takes stock of the state and evolution of Latin American capital markets and related reforms over time and relative to other countries. Second, it analyzes the factors related to the development of capital markets, with particular interest on measuring the impact of reforms. And third, in light of this analysis, it discusses the prospects for capital market development in Latin America and emerging economies and the implications for the reform agenda.

Book Slapped by the Invisible Hand

Download or read book Slapped by the Invisible Hand written by Gary B. Gorton and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally written for a conference of the Federal Reserve, Gary Gorton's "The Panic of 2007" garnered enormous attention and is considered by many to be the most convincing take on the recent economic meltdown. Now, in Slapped by the Invisible Hand, Gorton builds upon this seminal work, explaining how the securitized-banking system, the nexus of financial markets and instruments unknown to most people, stands at the heart of the financial crisis. Gorton shows that the Panic of 2007 was not so different from the Panics of 1907 or of 1893, except that, in 2007, most people had never heard of the markets that were involved, didn't know how they worked, or what their purposes were. Terms like subprime mortgage, asset-backed commercial paper conduit, structured investment vehicle, credit derivative, securitization, or repo market were meaningless. In this superb volume, Gorton makes all of this crystal clear. He shows that the securitized banking system is, in fact, a real banking system, allowing institutional investors and firms to make enormous, short-term deposits. But as any banking system, it was vulnerable to a panic. Indeed the events starting in August 2007 can best be understood not as a retail panic involving individuals, but as a wholesale panic involving institutions, where large financial firms "ran" on other financial firms, making the system insolvent. An authority on banking panics, Gorton is the ideal person to explain the financial calamity of 2007. Indeed, as the crisis unfolded, he was working inside an institution that played a central role in the collapse. Thus, this book presents the unparalleled and invaluable perspective of a top scholar who was also a key insider.

Book Powering the Digital Economy  Opportunities and Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Finance

Download or read book Powering the Digital Economy Opportunities and Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Finance written by El Bachir Boukherouaa and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the impact of the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the financial sector. It highlights the benefits these technologies bring in terms of financial deepening and efficiency, while raising concerns about its potential in widening the digital divide between advanced and developing economies. The paper advances the discussion on the impact of this technology by distilling and categorizing the unique risks that it could pose to the integrity and stability of the financial system, policy challenges, and potential regulatory approaches. The evolving nature of this technology and its application in finance means that the full extent of its strengths and weaknesses is yet to be fully understood. Given the risk of unexpected pitfalls, countries will need to strengthen prudential oversight.

Book Innovative Experiences in Access to Finance

Download or read book Innovative Experiences in Access to Finance written by Augusto de la Torre and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in access to finance and awareness of its importance have increased significantly since the early 2000s. Growing evidence suggests that lack of access to credit prevents many households and firms from financing high-return investment projects, which has an adverse effect on growth and poverty alleviation. Despite the increasing awareness of the importance of access to finance among both researchers and policymakers, there are still some major gaps in our understanding of the main drivers of access, as well as about the impact of different policies in this area. This book aims to fill some of these gaps by discussing recent innovative experiences in broadening access to credit in Latin America. These experiences are consistent with an emerging new view that, while recognizing the central role of the public sector in improving the contractual and informational environment for financial markets, also contends that there might be room for well-designed, restricted interventions in collaboration with the private sector to foster the development of financial markets and broaden access to them. In particular, the book analyzes, among other things, some interesting experiences from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Mexico that use different instruments to broaden access to credit in a sustainable way, such as structured finance, factoring, credit guarantees, and correspondent banking. Most of these experiences have led to financial innovation by developing new financial products and coordinating different players in the financial and real sectors to overcome barriers to access to credit. The book provides a first systematic analysis of these innovative experiences, including an analytical framework to understand problems of access to finance and a discussion of the effects and optimal design of public interventions. Finally, the book discusses some open policy questions about the role of the private and public sectors (including state†?owned banks) in broadening access to finance in a sustainable and market-friendly manner.

Book Innovative Experiences in Access to Finance  market Friendly Roles for the Visible Hand

Download or read book Innovative Experiences in Access to Finance market Friendly Roles for the Visible Hand written by Sergio L. Schumukler and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in access to finance has increased significantly in recent years, as growing evidence suggests that lack of access to credit prevents lower-income households and small firms from financing high return investment projects, having an adverse effect on growth and poverty alleviation. This study describes some recent innovative experiences to broaden access to credit. These experiences are consistent with an emerging new view that recognizes a limited role for the public sector in financial markets, but contends that there might be room for well-designed, restricted interventions in collaboration with the private sector to foster financial development and broaden access. The authors illustrate this view with several recent experiences in Latin America and then discuss some open policy questions about the role of the public and private sectors in driving these financial innovations.

Book Active Balance Sheet Management

Download or read book Active Balance Sheet Management written by Maulik N. Parekh and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MUST READ BOOK FOR STRATEGY MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS, NON-FINANCIAL SENIOR MANAGERS, GRADUATE BUSINESS STUDENTS Praise for the Book : Referring to his experiences living in various continents and reflecting on the last several recessions, the book helps understand key techniques to manage risks and liquidity that can be make-or-break for companies. -Mr. Jatan Shah, MS(IE), ex-Mckinsey, COO, CTO, QSC Audio (California, USA) This book is a must-read for CFOs who need to keep abreast with the disruptive financial and technological changes taking place while also taking cognizance of identifying new risks and unprecedented scenarios. As the book suggests, treasurers need to be agile and always plan for contingencies. I highly recommend this very well-written, hands-on book with pragmatic guidance. -Mr. Deepak Parekh, Chairman, HDFC Ltd. (India) Maulik Parekh's perspective on ABSM from a practitioner's perspective is an interesting and engaging bird's eye view of the world of money and finance, seen with the thoughtful risk-taker's lens of a pragmatic professional. The book seamlessly weaves seemingly disconnected areas from the interrelated worlds of finance, portfolio management, and economics. - Mr. JK Khalil, MBA '10 (Chicago Booth), ex Banker, ex Consultant, Regional General Manager at Mastercard Book Summary: Active Balance Sheet Management (ABSM) - a Treasury Perspective is the outcome of the experiential learning of the author as an asset liability management (ALM) professional in the dealing room during the Lehman crisis (aka global financial crisis) when the "too big to fail" theories went for a tailspin due to liquidity crunch in money markets. While the boiler room environment as a dealer gave a pragmatic perspective on the financial crisis and day-to-day operational challenges of funding the balance sheet and quoting interbank (LIBOR, EIBOR, MIBOR, etc.) rates, the author realized the bigger challenges in orchestrating the holistic balance sheet management framework as head of ALM in a bank treasury. While governing the ALCO and being a credit committee member, the author implemented the stress testing and contingency planning exercises along with experiencing the importance of the mantle of leadership in large organizations, which typically fails to ask the tough questions. The purpose of the book is the transfer of these ABSM best practices to nonfinancial sector finance managers, business and management academic programs, and management consultants wanting a bird's-eye view of the technical and tactical aspects of balance sheet management. This book will give a holistic framework and market-driven perspective on actively governing the balance sheet of a company using different diagnostic and execution frameworks. The ultimate message of the book is to drive home the point that leadership and management caliber ultimately weighs on the ABSM technical framework, and envisioning without execution is hallucination.
