Back in the early 1990s, economists and policy makers had high expectations about the prospects for domestic capital market development in emerging economies, particularly in Latin America. Unfortunately, they are now faced with disheartening results. Stock and bond markets remain illiquid and segmented. Debt is concentrated at the short end of the maturity spectrum and denominated in foreign currency, exposing countries to maturity and currency risk. Capital markets in Latin America look particularly underdeveloped when considering the many efforts undertaken to improve the macroeconomic environment and to reform the institutions believed to foster capital market development. The disappointing performance has made conventional policy recommendations questionable, at best. 'Emerging Capital Markets and Globalization' analyzes where we stand and where we are heading on capital market development. First, it takes stock of the state and evolution of Latin American capital markets and related reforms over time and relative to other countries. Second, it analyzes the factors related to the development of capital markets, with particular interest on measuring the impact of reforms. And third, in light of this analysis, it discusses the prospects for capital market development in Latin America and emerging economies and the implications for the reform agenda.

Project finance has spread worldwide and includes numerousindustrial projects from power stations and waste-disposal plantsto telecommunication facilities, bridges, tunnels, railwaynetworks, and now also the building of hospitals, educationfacilities, government accommodation and tourist facilities. Despite financial assessment of PF projects being fundamental tothe lender’s decision, there is little understanding of howthe use of finance is perceived by individual stakeholders; why andhow a financial assessment is performed; who should be involved;where and when it should be performed; what data should be used;and how financial assessments should be presented. Current uncertainty in financial markets makes many sponsors ofconstruction project financings carefully consider bank liquidity,the higher cost of finance, and general uncertainty for demand.This has resulted in the postponement of a number of projects incertain industry sectors. Governments have seen tax receiptsdrastically reduced which has affected their ability to financeinfrastructure projects, often irrespective of the perceiveddemand. Equity providers still seek to invest, however there areless opportunities due to market dislocation. Due to the demand forglobal infrastructure it is believed that project financings willreturn to their pre-crunch levels, or more so, howeverlenders’ liquidity costs will be passed on to the borrowers.Lenders will also be under stricter regulation both internally andexternally. The steps outlined in the guide are designed to provide a basicunderstanding for all those involved or interested in bothstructuring and assessing project financings. Secondary contractsinvolving constructors, operators, finance providers, suppliers andofftakers can be developed and assessed to determine theircommercial viability over a projects life cycle.
