Abstract: This article examines financial liberalisation in Indonesia and South Korea during the 1980s and the early 1990s. It provides a brief discussion of the pre-reform political and economic environment in the two countries, followed by a description of the state of the pre-reform financial sectors in both the countries. The article then focuses on the respective financial development policies and their pace, sequencing and outcomes in the two nations. The socio-economic impact of financial sector reforms is also carefully considered. The article concludes by summarising its main findings and drawing out some major policy implications.
