The Impact of FI’s on Economic Growth

Financial Development’s ImpactPromotes Capital Accumulation & Productivity GrowthRajan and Zingales (1998)

Young firms in higher productivity sectors depend upon external financing and benefit from low cost financing associated with financial development

Galindo, Schiantarelli, and Weiss (2002)Financial liberalization in developing economies improves capital allocation

Both Studies stress the importance of the quality of regulation, supervision and enforcement.


Fin 129Regulation

Given their vital role in the economy FI’s are highly regulated. The goal of this regulation is to protect against a disruption in the services they offer (provide confidence in the system).Some segments of the population could be discriminated against without regulation (race, gender etc)The difference the private benefits and private costs of regulation are the net regulatory burden.
