Building Local Bond Markets: An Asian Perspective Based on papers presented at the South Asian Debt Market Symposium in 1999, this book provides valuable insights to emerging market nations wrestling with the issue of building local bond markets. It is part of the IFC's efforts to assist countries to identify their need for local bond markets, potential impediments, and how those impediments might be removed.
Leasing in Development: Guidelines for Emerging Economies IFC has been successful in introducing and implementing programs to develop leasing worldwide. However, there are many countries whose leasing sectors have not contributed to development as much as others elsewhere. In an effort to minimize this gap, IFC has produced this manual to share experiences on leasing development based upon its leasing technical assistance activities.
