Second Conference on Money, Banking and Finance: The Building Blocks of Effective Financial System

A widespread consensus has emerged that a well-developed financial system is the key to economic performance. Less clear is what are the essential building blocks of an effective financial system.

Recent research emphasizes certain institutions, such as investor protection legislation and accounting standards, but also social capital and culture.

This conference aims to advance the understanding of the role and relative importance of these building blocks.
