It identifies promising trends as well as pinpointing the major shortcomings that are observed across sub-Saharan Africa. Policy recommendations distinguish between those designed to make finance a more effective driver of economic growth and those designed to give low income, small-scale and other excluded groups better access to financial services.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51887819784465,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51887820341521,"sku":"GOR003987334","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780821369098.jpg?v=1763472832"},{"product_id":"systemic-financial-crises-book-patrick-honohan-9780521851855","title":"Systemic Financial Crises","description":"Faced with a systemic financial sector crisis, policymakers need to make difficult choices under pressure. Based on the experience of many countries in recent years, few have been able to achieve a speedy, lasting and low-cost resolution.

The contributors explore the important but little understood trade-offs that are involved, such as between policies which take effect quickly, those which minimize long-term fiscal and economic costs, and those which create favorable incentives for future stability.

Yet many of these events seem to take central banks by surprise, obliging them to improvise. In this important study, Patrick Honohan, former governor of the Central Bank of Ireland, calls on central banks to make preparation for crisis management a core activity. They should be ready to deal with the unexpected. Departing from the rather sedate mode of operation appropriate to their normal focus on price stability and risk control, they must speed up their decision making, change their style of communication, and be more open to cooperation with governments when a crisis hits. They need to keep careful track of changing financial market practices, evaluating solvency in murky situations and quickly weighing the tradeoffs involved in measures that can help contain the crisis but have adverse side effects. \u003ci\u003eThe Central Bank as Crisis Manager\u003c\/i\u003e warns that failure to recognize these challenges could be costly for society.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53673771991313,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53673772253457,"sku":"GOR014997331","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780881327533.jpg?v=1781528302"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-patrick-honohan.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
