Call for papers: "The Integration of World Capital Markets: Developments and Prospects"

For a special issue of the International Journal of Bonds and Derivatives.

In 2002, Wurgler reported that financial markets appear to improve the allocation of capital. In the last few year, the financial crisis and the interaction between financial markets has shown some weaknesses. Some of these are linked to the integration of world capital markets. In fact, national capital markets have become more linked and recent history has shown that a local decision can have a huge impact on international markets. For these reason is very important to analyse the degree of integration and its impact on financial decisions.

Suitable topics include but are not limited to:

• Financial markets integration
• Monetary union and international capital markets
• International capital markets and the future of economic policy
• Global capital markets: integration, crisis and growth
