Domestic Resource Mobilization and Financial Development

This significant and timely volume offers crucial insights into the constantly evolving debate within the international development community regarding the mobilization of domestic resources and the crucial role that financial development can and should play in this regard. This book explores various aspects of the financial development–domestic resource mobilization nexus, including detailed case studies from Africa (including Ethiopia, Morocco and Zambia) and Asia (including China, South Korea and Vietnam), and applicable policy lessons. The contributions, from leading experts in the area of finance and development, strike a fine balance between theory, evidence and policy.
