This book examines the financial landscapes of seven Latin American economies?Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Panama, Peru, and Uruguay?and makes a case for them to pursue regional financial integration. Chapters set out the benefits to the region of financial integration, the barriers to cross-border activity in banks, insurance companies, pension funds, and capital markets, as well as recommendations to address these barriers. Finally, the volume makes the case that regional integration now could be a step toward global integration in the short term. 410 0$aBooks 606 $aBanks and Banking$2imf 606 $aFinance: General$2imf 606 $aInsurance$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aIndustries: Financial Services$2imf 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)$2imf 606 $aPension Funds$2imf 606 $aNon-bank Financial Institutions$2imf 606 $aFinancial Instruments$2imf 606 $aInstitutional Investors$2imf 606 $aSocial Security and Public Pensions$2imf 606 $aBanks$2imf 606 $aDepository Institutions$2imf 606 $aMicro Finance Institutions$2imf 606 $aMortgages$2imf 606 $aInsurance Companies$2imf 606 $aActuarial Studies$2imf 606 $aGeneral Financial Markets: Government Policy and Regulation$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aPensions$2imf 606 $aBanking$2imf 606 $aInsurance & actuarial studies$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aInsurance companies$2imf 606 $aFinancial integration$2imf 606 $aPension spending$2imf 606 $aFinancial institutions$2imf 606 $aFinancial markets$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aRegional integration$2imf 606 $aEconomic integration$2imf 606 $aInternational finance$2imf 606 $aBanks and banking$2imf 606 $aFinancial services industry$2imf 607 $aLatin America$xEconomic integration 607 $aBrazil$2imf 615 7$aBanks and Banking 615 7$aFinance: General 615 7$aInsurance 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aIndustries: Financial Services 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data) 615 7$aPension Funds 615 7$aNon-bank Financial Institutions 615 7$aFinancial Instruments 615 7$aInstitutional Investors 615 7$aSocial Security and Public Pensions 615 7$aBanks 615 7$aDepository Institutions 615 7$aMicro Finance Institutions 615 7$aMortgages 615 7$aInsurance Companies 615 7$aActuarial Studies 615 7$aGeneral Financial Markets: Government Policy and Regulation 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aPensions 615 7$aBanking 615 7$aInsurance & actuarial studies 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aInsurance companies 615 7$aFinancial integration 615 7$aPension spending 615 7$aFinancial institutions 615 7$aFinancial markets 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aRegional integration 615 7$aEconomic integration 615 7$aInternational finance 615 7$aBanks and banking 615 7$aFinancial services industry 676 $a337.18 700 $aEnoch$b Charles$0865326 701 $aBossu$b Wouter$01712922 701 $aCaceres$b Carlos$0882223 701 $aSingh$b Diva$01450442 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814221503321 996 $aFinancial Integration in Latin America$94105475 997 $aUNINA
