摘要
This paper develops a framework for analyzing the role of financial sector policies in determining the outcome of trade liberalization and applies it to Sri Lanka's experience during 1977-87. It is found that financial liberalization complements trade liberalization on both demand and supply sides. On the demand side, interest rate deregulation affords opportunities for those earning increased income from a trade liberalization to hold financial assets as alternatives to nontradables. This facilitates economic adjustment in the trade liberalization context by preventing a premature appreciation of the exchange rate. On the supply side, financial reform augments loanable funds and facilitates their reallocation into private sector investment stimulated by trade liberalization.
