The book edited by William A. Barnett and Bruno S. Sergi is well embedded in international literature on banking and financial issues related to the realities of the emerging markets. The author uses multiple and diversified sources of information, including monographs, academic journals, publications and reports issues by central banks, other financial institutions, consultancies etc... the monograph under review is an interesting and valuable theoretical-empirical study, well rooted in the topical literature. I would highly recommend the book edited by William A. Barnett and Bruno S. Sergi to all scholars as well as managers and business people interested in banking and finance in emerging markets.
