Abstract

In this paper, we empirically study the linkages between financial openness and financial development using a sample of 164 countries during 1960–2020. Based on the results of the estimation of systems of equations, we find that the relationship between relative financial openness and relative banking sector development is positive and bidirectional. Likewise, the relationship between relative financial openness and relative stock market development is positive and bidirectional. However, the relationship between relative financial openness and relative bond market development is negative and bidirectional.
