ABOUT THE NEW VOLUME:
The latest volume of the IFR series is titled International
banking in the new era: Post-crisis challenges and
opportunities. The volume will publish original papers
that examine various issues concerning challenges and
opportunities for international banks in the rapidly
changing global environment. The deregulation of developed
countries' financial markets over the past two decades has
seen an evolution of the roles performed by banks. This
reshaping of the traditional boundaries of commercial and
investment banking activities has served to blur the
distinction between domestic and international banking
activities and to some extent contributed to the current
international financial crisis. In addition, the
development of banking systems in emerging markets have
added to the opportunities and challenges faced by
multinational banks. The current financial crisis has only
served to accelerate this process of change as the roles of
banks are once again being redefined with the possibility
of a return to a more controlled environment.
We encourage submission of manuscripts which address issues
that are relevant to international banking in this new and
rapidly changing environment.
