‘This excellent book deals not only with capital market liberalization, capital controls, and recent crises, but also with the implications of international capital mobility for monetary and exchange rate policies, and for reform of the “international architecture”. On the basis of Fane’s specialist knowledge it is particularly informative on capital market and exchange rate policies in East Asian developing economies. Fane analyzes highly topical subjects and recent events in a very clear, accessible way. The book can be strongly recommended both as a university text and as a reference for all interested in international financial markets.’
– W. Max Corden, Johns Hopkins University, US

Recent crises in emerging markets have raised doubts about the desirability of relaxing controls on capital mobility. George Fane, however, uses evidence from the crises in Asia and Latin America to reassert the traditional case that such controls are an excessively blunt instrument for achieving financial stability.
