Developing the Financial Sector and Expanding Market Instruments to Support a Post-2015 Development Agenda in Asia and the Pacific
Rao, Vivek | March 2015
Abstract
In light of financing challenges in meeting the post-2015 development agenda, this paper explores market
instruments for expanding finance for capital expansion and financial inclusion, as well as for disaster risk
mitigation and climate change. With weak fiscal balances even in middle income Asian economies, it is
necessary to promote efficient allocation of resources and enhance availability of financial instruments to
catalyze commercial financing to meet development goals and complement fiscal resources
