The
opening case illustrates just how interconnected capital markets have become in
our
global
age. Banks and corporations borrow money to meet their short-term needs by
issuing
commercial
paper. The market for commercial paper is a truly global capital market
with
interest rates set by the London Interbank Offered Rate LIBOR and market
participants from all over the world entering into exchanges with each other.
Its efficient operation is vital for the functioning of the global economy.
Without it, banks will stop lending, corporations will not be able to get
access to the working capital they need to pay their bills, business will
contract, payroll may not be meet, suppliers may not be paid, and international
trade will stall.
This
chapter looks at the global market for capital. We begin by studying the benefits
associated
with the globalization of capital markets. This is followed by a more detailed
look at
the growth of the international capital market and the macroeconomic risks
associated with such growth. Next, we review three important segments of the
global capital market: the Eurocurrency market, the international bond market,
and the international equity market. As usual, we close the chapter by pointing
out some of the implications for the practice of international business.
