FM201 - Financial Institutions and Markets

This course is designed to introduce the mechanics of financial markets and institutions. Its
focus, whilst primarily descriptive, provides a basis for determining an appropriate financial
markets structure for the individual countries of the region and for the region as an economic
bloc. The emphasis is on describing the structure of financial markets in general, how those
markets function, how they relate to various economic and political structures and how they
facilitate the effective and efficient transfer of financial resources.
