Financial Analysts Journal, 1996, vol. 52, issue 2, 31-39

Abstract: Simple factor models of worldwide equity returns are used to explore the level and trend in international capital market integration. Global influences and national influences are of roughly equal importance in explaining the common movements in equity returns. Significant evidence indicates a trend toward increasing integration within the European Union, but not worldwide.
