This timely book provides a much-needed introduction to the non-bank financial intermediaries in Britain, a subject area hitherto neglected by economists. Comprehensive in scope, powerfully analytical and completely up to date, it draws on the wealth of research experience of a group of economists convened specifically to examine changes in a rapidly evolving major sector of the British economy.
The book contains both a review of developmentss across the whole non-bank sector and a detailed economic analysis of its main components, with special emphasis on building societies, insurance companies and pension funds. It attempts to draw conclusions concerning the eventual shape of the non-bank sector, taking into account its impact on the banking sector itself and its likely reactions; the authors also pay attention to the implications for moentary control of these developments.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
