Bank Ownership
This paper presents recent trends in bank ownership across countries and summarizes the evidence regarding the implications of bank ownership structure for bank performance and competition, financial stability, and access to finance. The evidence reviewed suggests that foreign-owned banks are more efficient than domestic banks in developing countries, promote competition in host banking sectors, and help stabilize credit when host countries face idiosyncratic shocks. But there are tradeoffs, since foreign-owned banks can transmit external shocks and might not always expand access to credit. The record on the impact of government bank ownership suggests few benefits, especially for developing countries.
Globalization for Development
Globalization and its relation to poverty reduction and development is not well understood. The book identifies the ways in which globalization can overcome poverty or make it worse. The book defines the big historical trends, identifies main global flows - trade, finance, aid, migration, and ideas - and examines how each can contribute to undermine economic development. By considering what helps and what does not, the book presents policy recommendations to make globalization more effective as a vehicle for shared growth and prosperity. It will be of interest to students, researchers and anyone interested in the effects of globalization in today's economy and in international development issues.

Globalization, Growth, and Poverty
Globalization - the growing integration of economies and societies around the world, is a complex process. The focus of this research is the impact of economic integration on developing countries and especially the poor people living in these countries. Whether economic integration supports poverty reduction and how it can do so more effectively are key questions asked. The research yields 3 main findings with bearings on current policy debates about globalization. Firstly, poor countries with some 3 billion people have broken into the global market for manufactures and services, and this successful integration has generally supported poverty reduction. Secondly, inclusion both across countries and within them is important as a number of countries (pop. 2 billion) are failing as states, trading less and less, and becoming marginal to the world economy. Thirdly, standardization or homogenization is a concern - will economic integration lead to cultural or institutional homogenization?
Gobernanza y reforma internacional tras la crisis financiera y económica: el papel de la Unión Europea
La crisis financiera y económica ha afectado profundamente a la Unión Europea y a su acción exterior para promover una gobernanza internacional. El objetivo de la presente obra es analizar en profundidad esos cambios. Se explica así detalladamente cómo, consecuencia de la crisis, se ha abordado una ambiciosa profundización en el seno del modelo económico europeo, con cambios profundos en la gobernanza presupuestaria y económica común, con nuevos instrumentos de gestión como los rescates, el Semestre Europeo y la Unión Bancaria. Estas innovaciones mejoran la gobernanza económica interna de la Unión Europea, pero aún quedan pendientes importantes reformas para lograr una Unión E...

Resultados inesperados: cómo las economías emergentes sobrevivieron la crisis financiera global
La excepcional capacidad de adaptación de las economías emergentes en Asia Oriental y América Latina frente a la crisis financiera global de 2008-09 tomó por sorpresa a la mayoría de los gestores de políticas. La célebre recuperación tras la crisis marcó una divergencia radical con respecto a recuperaciones anteriores, las cuales fueron mucho más lentas y menos robustas. Tales fueron los casos de los shocks que se dieron en 1982 a causa de la deuda externa, por ejemplo, que produjeron una recesión que duró una década en América Latina, y la crisis financiera asiática, que causó una dramática desaceleración en las economías emergentes a finales de la década de 1990. ¿A qu...
Zombie Economics
In the graveyard of economic ideology, dead ideas still stalk the land. The recent financial crisis laid bare many of the assumptions behind market liberalism—the theory that market-based solutions are always best, regardless of the problem. For decades, their advocates dominated mainstream economics, and their influence created a system where an unthinking faith in markets led many to view speculative investments as fundamentally safe. The crisis seemed to have killed off these ideas, but they still live on in the minds of many—members of the public, commentators, politicians, economists, and even those charged with cleaning up the mess. In Zombie Economics, John Quiggin explains how th...
