WAEMU: PCA on Government Securities, 2010The West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) regional securities market saw increasing activity in the last decade, but still fell short of supplying sufficient long-term financing for growth-enhancing public and private investment projects. In addition to providing an institutional background, this paper studies recent developments and the determinants of interest rates on the market—using yield curve and principal component analyses. It also identifies challenges and prospective reforms that could help the region reap the full benefits of a more dynamic securities market and assesses the potential systemic risk the market may pose for the region’s banking system.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2012/249SecuritiesAfrica, WestInvestmentsAfrica, WestFinance: GeneralimfInvestments: GeneralimfInvestments: BondsimfInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsimfFinancial Markets and the MacroeconomyimfEconomic IntegrationimfGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)imfInvestment & securitiesimfFinanceimfSecuritiesimfTreasury bills and bondsimfSecurities marketsimfBondsimfGovernment securitiesimfFinancial institutionsimfFinancial marketsimfFinancial instrumentsimfCapital marketimfBurkina FasoimfSecuritiesInvestmentsFinance: GeneralInvestments: GeneralInvestments: BondsInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsFinancial Markets and the MacroeconomyEconomic IntegrationGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)Investment & securitiesFinanceSecuritiesTreasury bills and bondsSecurities marketsBondsGovernment securitiesFinancial institutionsFinancial marketsFinancial instrumentsCapital marketDiouf Mame Astou1476617Boutin-Dufresne Francois1476618DcWaIMFBOOK9910779642703321Financing Growth in the WAEMU Through the Regional Securities Market3691358UNINA
