Integration in World Capital Markets

In: Multilateralism and Regionalism after the Uruguay Round

Abstract

Since the breakdown of the Bretton Woods system, international financial markets have experienced an acceleration in the trend towards liberalization. This is a most remarkable development given that, before 1973, capital controls were widely used, especially when a country faced a balance of payments crisis. The widespread reliance on capital controls stood in contrast with the stance in trade policy: several rounds of GATT negotiations had indeed prompted a substantial reduction in the barriers to trade in goods and services. The asymmetric treatment between trade in goods and trade in assets has always been difficult to justify.1
