Carmichael (former chairman, Australian Prudential Regulation Authority), Fleming (sector manager, finance and private sector development, World Bank Institute), and Llewellyn (economics, Loughborough U., UK) present a synthesis of the proceedings of a December 2003 World Bank Institute conference with the same title. After dealing with the basic issues of the institutional structure of financial regulation and supervision, case material from Australia, South Africa, and Ireland is considered.
