Working Papers from World Bank - International Finance Corporation

Abstract: This paper examines aggregate primary capital market activity in a cross section of emerging market and developed countries. We analyze data on the value of funds raised domestically via issues of debt and equity securities in public capital markets in 32 countries over the period 1980-95. There was a dramatic increase in the level of activity over that time, as well as substantial differences in the level of activity across markets and countries.
