International financial architecture

"The Group of Seven Industrialized Countries, G7, developed a new doctrine of international supervision and regulation of financial markets. The G7 instructed international financial institutions such as the IMF, the Bank for International Settlements, the World Bank and the Multilateral Development Banks to tighten their supervision and regulation of international finance. This volume examines this doctrine sometimes known as 'the New Architecture of the International Financial System' or IFA. Strengthening of the international financial system never ends and there have been recurring vulnerabilities in international financial architecture. The book examines current practice and its consequences and how the IFA has evolved and its alternatives. The book draws upon academic knowledge, practitioner techniques in financial risk management and official doctrine to analyse how investors, creditors and debtors function within the new architecture."--Jacket.
