Aspects of Development Bank Management
Author: William DiamondPublisher: Johns Hopkins University Press
ISBN:
Category : Development banks
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
This is the first book to deal exclusively with the management of development banks, their specific problems, and various ways of addressing them. The book comprises eight sections, each dealing with one aspect of management: management's role and priorities; the establishment of goals and strategies; economic and social evaluation of projects; promotion and innovation; development of small-scale enterprises; financial management; organization and staff development; and government and development bank relations. Each section opens with an introduction by the editors, highlighting the relation of the various issues confronting management and the role of management in dealing with them. Most of these essays were originally prepared for a two-week seminar sponsored by EDI in February 1979.
Global Economic Governance and the Development Practices of the Multilateral Development Banks
Author: Susan ParkPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317568540
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
As pillars of the post-1945 international economic system the Regional and Sub-Regional Development Banks (RSDBs) have long been considered mini-World Banks, reiterating the policy approach of the largest official multilateral development lender in the world. The main objective of the collection is to identify what role the RSDBs play in global economic governance and why. This edited collection draws together cutting edge original research on these understudied institutions. In the burgeoning sub-field of global economic governance as well as the broader study of international organisations (IOs), too often the focus remains on the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Second-order IOs, such as the RSDBs, receive much less attention despite their longevity and regional importance. This volume corrects this oversight by bringing together methodologically diverse research on the RSDBs that interrogates the role and impact of these organisations in global economic governance. The book investigates: the African Development Bank (AfDB); the Asian Development Bank (AsDB); the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and select sub-regional development banks in comparison to the World Bank Group. This work will be of great interest to students and scholars of IPE, IR and Development Studies.
