It explores the role played by several exogenous sectoral shocks and differences in steady states within each country. It finds that poor and rich regions within each country converged at very low rates over the past three decades. It also finds evidence of regional "convergence clubs" within Brazil and Peru- the estimated speeds of convergence for these countries more than double after controlling for different subnational levels of steady state. For the latter countries and Chile, convergence is also higher after controlling for sector-specific shocks. Finally, results show that national disparities in per capita output increased temporarily after each country pursued trade liberalization. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/125 606 $aEconomic development$zLatin America 606 $aAgribusiness$2imf 606 $aAgricultural economics$2imf 606 $aAgricultural industries$2imf 606 $aAgricultural sector$2imf 606 $aAgriculture: General$2imf 606 $aCommercial policy$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aExtractive industries$2imf 606 $aIndustries: Manufacturing$2imf 606 $aIndustry Studies: Manufacturing: General$2imf 606 $aIndustry Studies: Primary Products and Construction: General$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aInternational Trade Organizations$2imf 606 $aManufacturing industries$2imf 606 $aManufacturing$2imf 606 $aMineral industries$2imf 606 $aMining sector$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aNatural Resource Extraction$2imf 606 $aPublic expenditure review$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aTrade liberalization$2imf 606 $aTrade Policy$2imf 607 $aLatin America$xEconomic conditions$xRegional disparities 607 $aLatin America$xEconomic conditions 607 $aBrazil$2imf 615 0$aEconomic development 615 7$aAgribusiness 615 7$aAgricultural economics 615 7$aAgricultural industries 615 7$aAgricultural sector 615 7$aAgriculture: General 615 7$aCommercial policy 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aExtractive industries 615 7$aIndustries: Manufacturing 615 7$aIndustry Studies: Manufacturing: General 615 7$aIndustry Studies: Primary Products and Construction: General 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aInternational Trade Organizations 615 7$aManufacturing industries 615 7$aManufacturing 615 7$aMineral industries 615 7$aMining sector 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aNatural Resource Extraction 615 7$aPublic expenditure review 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aTrade liberalization 615 7$aTrade Policy 700 $aSutton$b Bennett$01108577 701 $aLindow$b Genevieve$01816625 701 $aPazmino$b Maria Fernanda$01816626 701 $aRamirez$b Gustavo$01816156 701 $aSerra$b Maria Isabel$01816627 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bWestern Hemisphere Dept. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910975146803321 996 $aRegional Convergence in Latin America$94372875 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05098nam 22006255 450 001 9911007473503321 005 20250525130209.0 010 $a3-031-88527-9 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-88527-3 035 $a(CKB)39124541900041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-88527-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32130313 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32130313 035 $a(OCoLC)1521935742 035 $a(EXLCZ)9939124541900041 100 $a20250525d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aBetween Markets and Governments $eAn Institutional Analysis of Development Banking and Economics in Greece /$fby Konstantinos Loizos 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (XXI, 342 p. 60 illus.) 311 08$a3-031-88526-0 327 $a1.

This persuasive, well-researched book offers high value to multiple audiences - investors, academics, policymakers." ?Stavros B. Thomadakis, Emeritus Professor of Economics, University of Athens, and former Chairman, Hellenic Capital Market Commission and International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants "A highly important contribution written from the perspective of institutional economics, that combines theoretical insights on development banking with an extensive discussion of the case of Greece. The years of Greek industrial expansion from the early 1960s to the global financial crisis and resurrection efforts after 2019 are thoroughly analyzed." ?Michalis Psalidopoulos, Emeritus Professor of Economics, University of Athens, and Advisor, Institute for Hellenic Growth and Prosperity, American College of Greece This book proposes an institutional economics approach to development banking in the wake of the 2008 Financial Crisis. The role of national development banks in countering the adverse effects of economic recession is highlighted, alongside ways in which they can contribute to sustainable economic development and institutional change. Through acknowledging the distinctive features of development banks, a new theoretical model for development banking is presented. The proposed model is applied to a case study of the Greek economic development during the post-war period until the early 2020s. The role of development banks in the socio-economic transformation of the country is analyzed along with the evolution of development banking as the economy went through different financial regimes. This book aims to provide a modern framework for understanding the mechanisms for financing economic development and promoting institutional change. It will be relevant to researchers and policymakers interested in development and financial economics.
