Making Finance Work for Africa presents
a coherent policy approach that addresses African priorities
and can work in African conditions. It challenges the
applicability of some conventional views on a range of
issues from securities markets and banking regulation to the
organization of microfinance institutions. The authors
identify promising trends from across sub-Saharan Africa and
pinpoint shortcomings. The book will be useful to policy
makers, bankers, financial analysts, and economists working
in Africa.
