FINLINKS

This page provides a number of links to other websites dealing with issues of finance in development.  The links are categorised as much as possible according to the three programme themes, with a general category for sites that cut across all three.

In addition, we are building up a page of other literature, institutional articles and information on the issues covered in the Finance and Development Research Programme.  Click Here to take you to this page.

We are pleased to here from anyone who has sites they feel should be added to this list and we invite you to email: frances.hill@devinit.org with any suggestions.  

This page will be constantly added to throughout the programme.

The links are grouped broadly within the three themes of the programme:

1. Finance for the Poor

2. Regulation Policy and Supervision of the Financial Sector

3. The Role of the Financial System in Development

More development related links can be found on the Development Initiatives website at www.devinit.org
