Abstract: Abstract Since financial liberalisation in the late 1970s and early 1980s, prudential norms for the financial sector have become increasingly important for enhancing financial stability worldwide. Developing countries in particular have in recent years made some efforts to improve their prudential and regulatory frameworks for the financial system, especially at end of the various financial crises in the emerging market economies in the late 1990s.
