This document analyzes the impact of financial liberalization on broad money in Sri Lanka from 1977-2011. It constructs a financial liberalization index using principal component analysis of 10 policy variables. Regression analysis finds a positive relationship between broad money and the financial liberalization index in the short-run, indicating financial liberalization may positively impact broad money in Sri Lanka. The study aims to examine this relationship in the long-run as well.
Determinants of interest rate empirical evidence from pakistanAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a research paper that analyzes the determinants of interest rates in Pakistan. It begins with background definitions of key rate indicators like KIBOR and inflation. It then states the purpose is to study the determinants of interest rates, with the hypotheses that inflation and exchange rates have a positive impact on interest rates. The literature review summarizes several past studies on factors influencing interest rates in countries like Pakistan, Austria, and Japan. These studies examined the relationship between policy rates, market rates, inflation, and economic growth.
A causality analysis of financial deepening and performance ofAlexander Decker
This study examines the causal relationship between financial deepening and economic performance in Nigeria from 1990-2013. Secondary data on gross domestic product (GDP), broad money supply (M2), market capitalization (MAC), and credit to the private sector (CPS) was collected from the Central Bank of Nigeria and National Bureau of Statistics. Unit root tests confirmed the variables were integrated of order one, or stationary after first differencing. The study aims to test for a long-run relationship between financial deepening and economic performance in Nigeria and investigate the direction of causality between the variables. The results will help inform government policies around manipulating the money supply and improving access to credit to facilitate economic growth and development.
This document summarizes a study that uses a monetary model to examine the link between monetary factors and Nigeria's balance of payments from 2007 to 2018. The study estimates a balance of payments model using two-stage least squares to control for endogeneity. The results show that domestic credit is statistically significant and negatively related to foreign reserve assets, indicating that balance of payments is a monetary phenomenon in Nigeria. Specifically, the velocity of money circulation is approximately 120% and the marginal propensity to import is around 14%. The study recommends that monetary authorities consider using domestic credit to manage balance of payments disequilibriums. It also argues that increasing domestic credit can boost the economy while marginally decreasing foreign reserves through higher imports.
Banking sector development and economic growth slides for presentation editedComrade Ibrahim Gani
This document summarizes a study on the relationship between banking sector development and economic growth in Nigeria. It finds that while several banking reforms have been implemented, real sector access to financing remains difficult, with high interest rates discouraging bank borrowing. After reviewing theories and prior studies on the finance-growth nexus, the document describes the study's methodology, which uses cointegration and vector error-correction models to analyze annual data from 1970-2010 on GDP, financial indicators like credit to GDP ratios, and other variables. The results show a long-run equilibrium relationship between the variables. In particular, higher credit to the private sector, government expenditure, and interest rate spreads negatively impact GDP, while liquid liabilities and trade openness positively influence
Financial Development and Economic Growth Nexus in Nigeriaiosrjce
The study assessed the impact of financial development on economic growth in Nigeria using time
series data from 1970 to 2012. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag bounds testing approach to cointegration
was utilized for this study. The result from the ARDL model indicate that the variables for this study are
cointegrated while the error correction term appeared significant and confirms that short-run disequilibria are
corrected up to about 50 percent annually. The empirical results reveals that financial development exerts
positive and significant impact on economic growth in the long-run while trade liberalization variables exert
negative impact on economic growth in the long-run indicating non-competitive nature of non-oil domestic
products in the international market. In the short-run, domestic credit is insignificant which indicates a dearth
of investible funds in the economy. There is evidence that financial development policies influence economic
growth in the long-run and not in the short-run. This study among others recommends the urgent need to
implement policies that will strengthen the deposit mobilization and intermediation efforts in the banking system
in other to deepen the financial system. Nigerian trade performance should be improved through economic
diversification and further availability of funds to private sector at competitive interest rate in order to produce
internationally competitive products.
Macroeconomic effects of central bank independence and transparency the case ...Alexander Decker
This document summarizes a journal article that investigates the impact of central bank independence and transparency on macroeconomic variables in Nigeria. It provides background on how Nigeria established an independent central bank in 2007 and aimed to adopt inflation targeting in 2009. The study examines how periods of central bank interference versus autonomy impacted selected macroeconomic variables from 1970 to 2011. It analyzes the effects of central bank independence and transparency on employment, inflation, and interest rates in Nigeria's economy.
In this paper we try to estimate effects of financial deepness and capital account liberalization on economic growth, investment and the total factor productivity (TFP) in Slovenia from 1993 to the second quarter of 2001. We find out that the only positive effect of capital account liberalization was increased credits to private sector. On the other hand, financial depth has a positive and significant effect on economic growth and investment, but not on the TFP growth. Moreover, it is not likely that also capital account liberalization positively affects above specified choice variables. Namely, financial deepening is achieved through development of adequate institutions and sustainable macroeconomic policies. Once financial system is set in the country, capital account liberalization takes place.

Macroeconomic factors that affect the quality of lending in albania.Alexander Decker
This document analyzes the relationship between macroeconomic factors and credit quality in the Albanian banking system from 2005 to 2013. It finds that non-performing loan rates increased, influenced by the economic slowdown after 2008 and currency depreciation. Unemployment, lower GDP growth, reduced remittances, and inflation stability negatively impacted borrowers' ability to repay loans. A regression analysis showed credit risk significantly increased when GDP growth declined and interest rates rose. Macroeconomic changes, like deteriorating GDP growth, substantially affected the level of non-performing loans in Albanian banks.
Domestic debt and the growth of nigerian economyAlexander Decker
Domestic debt in Nigeria has risen significantly between 1994 and 2008, averaging 114.98% of bank deposits which exceeds the recommended threshold of 35% and can crowd out private investment. The study found evidence that high levels of domestic debt negatively impact economic growth. The government should reduce the debt-bank deposit ratio to below 35% and increase tax revenue to finance projects in order to promote private sector growth and development.
This document provides an introduction and overview of a study on foreign currency reserves and their impact on economic growth in Bangladesh. It discusses the objectives of the study, which are to analyze the volume of foreign currency reserves in Bangladesh over the last ten years, identify the major sources and impacts of foreign remittances on Bangladesh's economy and balance of payments, and provide recommendations to increase foreign remittances and improve related processes. The methodology and sources of data for the study are also outlined.
9 financial-sector-development-and-poverty-reductionAwais e Siraj
This document discusses the relationship between financial sector development and poverty reduction. It argues that financial sector development is an effective way to reduce poverty through four main avenues: improving efficiency, increasing access and range of services, improving regulation, and increasing access for more of the population. The financial sector is divided into four parts for analysis: banking, insurance, stock markets, and bond markets. Variables are identified to measure development in each sector. The study aims to analyze the relationship between financial sector development and poverty across different countries. Financial sector development leads to growth, which then reduces poverty, demonstrating a negative relationship between financial sector development and poverty.
This document summarizes a study on the relationship between financial development and economic growth in emerging market economies. The study uses empirical analysis through fixed effects regression models to examine how various financial development indicators, such as private credit levels, banking system assets, liquid liabilities, and stock market capitalization, impact per capita GDP growth in 27 emerging markets from 1960 to 2011. The results suggest that financial development can promote economic growth through indirect benefits, and several financial indicators were found to have a significant positive relationship with economic growth in the countries studied, including India. However, policies are needed to manage risks from financial openness and ensure credit quality.
Financial liberalization and economic growth implications for the conduct of...Alexander Decker
This document summarizes a study that examined the impact of financial liberalization on economic growth in Nigeria. It provides background on theories around how financial liberalization can impact capital accumulation, productivity, and economic growth. The study used cointegration methods to analyze the relationship between financial liberalization and growth in Nigeria. The results showed that financial liberalization had some impact on growth, but not a remarkable impact, possibly due to an underdeveloped financial market and inadequate oversight. The study recommends better monitoring of commercial banks to boost Nigeria's real economic sector.
This paper analyzes long-term data on short-term Japanese interest rates and compares them to key foreign rates to assess Japan's integration into international money markets over time. It finds that Japanese interest rates became less volatile and more closely linked to foreign rates in the inter-war period, possibly due to deeper financial integration or use of interest rates to manage external imbalances. The paper uses econometric analysis and cointegration tests to examine these relationships under changing domestic policy regimes and degrees of capital mobility. It provides a thorough review of relevant theoretical frameworks and methodology to guide the empirical analysis.
This document discusses a study examining the impact of monetary policy on the financial performance of banks in Pakistan from 2007-2011. It uses interest rates set by the State Bank of Pakistan as a measure of monetary policy. The study finds that higher interest rates, representing a tighter monetary policy, have a significant negative relationship with banks' financial performance as measured by their return on assets and return on equity. The document provides background on monetary policy, its tools of expanding or contracting the money supply, and how interest rates can affect bank risk-taking and performance. It also reviews prior literature finding that higher capitalized banks may increase risk-taking less in response to lower rates than other banks.
This document discusses the relationship between net external liabilities and economic growth in Pakistan from 1973-2012. It finds that net external liabilities, education enrollment, exports, and gross capital formation are positively associated with GDP growth, while the relationship between debt service and growth was insignificant. The document also reviews previous literature on the impact of external debt on economic growth, discusses the variables and data used in the analysis, and presents the results of unit root tests of the time series data.
A research project on devaluation of currency in Pakistan. Pakistan being a developing country, its economy gets affected by the rise and fall of Pakistani currency against dollar. During the time of Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz in power dollar was stable for 60 rupee. When the government changed Pakistani currency immediately fell seven rupee against dollar. Since then Pakistani currency is falling and nowadays the value is 104 and the speculation is that it will keep on falling. The devaluation of currency has a direct impact on local Pakistan traders. Foreign trade such as eatable oil, raw materials, petroleum and electronics gets expensive. This creates problems for the traders. Pakistan imports 80 percent of petroleum for its consumption. According to the Former Finance Minister Dr. Salman Shah, Pakistan spends 13 billion dollar on imports of crude oil and eatable oil. This provides a boost for domestic demands as exports become cheaper and more competitive to foreign buyers. Higher level of exports should lead to an improvement in the current account deficit. This was important in the case of the UK who had a large current account deficit of over 3% of GDP in 2008. Higher exports and aggregate demand can lead to higher rates of economic growth. Deficit financing, economic instability and money supply are the factors that influence our independent variable.
The document discusses the relationship between interest rates and gross domestic product (GDP) in Pakistan. It provides background on interest rates and GDP, reviews previous literature that finds both positive and negative relationships between the two variables, outlines the methodology used including regression analysis on annual interest rate and GDP data from 1960 to 2005, and presents the results of the regression analysis showing a statistically significant relationship between interest rates and GDP in Pakistan.

Finance companies, central bank of nigeria and economic developmentAlexander Decker
This document summarizes an empirical study that examines the relationship between Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) regulatory activities, finance house activities, and economic development in Nigeria from 1992-2010. It uses gross domestic product (GDP) as a measure of economic development and proxies CBN activities with minimum paid up capital and shareholders fund, and finance house activities with domestic credit and total assets. The study finds that a significant relationship exists between finance house activities and economic development, but that CBN regulatory activities have no significant relationship with finance house operations. It recommends policies to encourage existing finance houses and license new ones to better support Nigeria's overall economy.
The trilemma as a framework for understanding China and India’s recent moneta...Hiram Ruiz
This document summarizes and analyzes recent monetary policy choices by China and India through the framework of the "trilemma" of international finance. It discusses China and India's use of capital controls to maintain exchange rate stability and monetary sovereignty while restricting capital flows. The document analyzes the development of each country's domestic financial markets and the role of government ownership in banking. It examines how China and India have approached exchange rate policy and positioned themselves within the trilemma framework over time based on quantitative data and historical context.
With banks being the major avenue that the CBK relies on to execute monetary policy, the paper
sought to investigate whether commercial banks are actually responsive to monetary policy.
The study used an Error Correctional Model to estimate a relationship where lending rates were
treated as the dependent variable while the independent variables were monetary policy,
specifically CBR. The model was also expanded to include additional independent variables
specifically monetary policy transmission channels. These include the credit channel which is
represented by credit to the private sector, exchange rate channel represented as nominal
exchange rate and asset price channel. For consistency, inflation and economic growth were
included in the model because these are the targets of monetary policy.The study findings
showed that there was a long run relationship between lending rates and Central Bank Rate,
Exchange Rates, Asset Price, Credit to the Private Sector, Economic growth and Inflation Rates.
The results also indicated that CBRand Inflation cause lending rates to increase in the short run
while credit to the private sector causes lending rates to decrease in the short run. A statistically
significant relationship was also established between lending rates and CBR, credit to the
private sector. The study concludes that commercial banks’ lending rates are indeed positively
responsive to CBR and that in order to spur economic growth; commercial banks’ lending rates
should be stabilized by streamlining the economic environment in which commercial banks
operate, therefore ensuring stable rates of borrowing.

This study examines the long-run relationship between financial development and economic growth in India using monthly data from January 1994 to December 2011. The empirical results found two cointegrating equations between the variables. The vector error correction model shows that in the long run, stock market development negatively impacts economic growth, while increases in bank credit positively affect the economy. Money supply was also found to negatively impact economic growth in the long run, while trade openness had no impact. The study suggests that financial sector liberalization and openness policies can promote economic growth by improving market size and maintaining macroeconomic stability.

A causality analysis of financial deepening and performance ofAlexander Decker
This study examines the causal relationship between financial deepening and economic performance in Nigeria from 1990-2013. Secondary data on gross domestic product (GDP), broad money supply (M2), market capitalization (MAC), and credit to the private sector (CPS) was collected from the Central Bank of Nigeria and National Bureau of Statistics. Unit root tests confirmed the variables were integrated of order one, or stationary after first differencing. The study aims to test for a long-run relationship between financial deepening and economic performance in Nigeria and investigate the direction of causality between the variables. The results will help inform government policies around manipulating the money supply and improving access to credit to facilitate economic growth and development.
This document examines the impact of monetary policy on the Nigerian economy from 1981 to 2008. The results of the analysis show that monetary policy, as represented by money supply, has a positive impact on GDP growth and the balance of payments, but a negative impact on inflation. The recommendations are that monetary policy should facilitate investment through appropriate interest rates, exchange rates, and liquidity management, and that the money market should provide more financial instruments to satisfy the growing sophistication of participants.

This document discusses a research study on the impact of money stock injection and withdrawal on economic growth in Nigeria from 1970 to 2008. The study uses regression analysis to examine the relationship between money stock and GDP. It finds that injecting money stock into the economy tends to reduce interest rates and increase investment, thereby boosting economic growth. However, it also notes that withdrawing money stock reduces the money available in the economy. The document provides background on monetary policy and debates between Keynesian and monetarist views. It also reviews previous related literature and discusses how the Central Bank of Nigeria can inject and withdraw money from the economy through tools like reserve requirements and interest rates.

Measuring the Dynamics of Financial Deepening and Economic Growth in Nigeria,...iosrjce
The study examined the relationship between financial deepening and economic growth for the
period 1981 to 2013 using empirical evidence from Nigeria. The Engel-Granger two-step cointegration
procedures and Error Correction Model (ECM) were used as the method of estimation. The analyses of
residuals of the OLS regression showed evidence in favour of cointegration between financial deepening and
economic growth. Similarly, estimates from the error correction model provide evidence to show that financial
deepening indicators and GDP series converge to a long-run equilibrium at a reasonably fast rate. The result
points to the fact that the deepening of the financial system can engineer the Nigerian economy to greater
growth.

This study examined the impact of financial innovation on money demand in Nigeria, using quarterly time series for the period 2009-2019. The dependent variable was money demand, represented by broad money, while the independent variable was financial innovation represented by modern payment channels such as volume of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) transactions, volume of Point of Sales (POS) transactions, volume of Internet banking transactions, and volume of Mobile banking transactions. The study employed the ordinary least squares (OLS) regression technique as the estimation method within the cointegration, granger causality, and error correction modeling. The result obtained showed that financial innovation has mixed impact on money demand in Nigeria during the period of analysis. For instance, financial innovation has positive impact on money demand through volume of ATM transactions in the current period, two periods lagged of volume of mobile banking transactions, current period and one period lagged of volume of internet banking transactions, and current period’s volume of Point of Sales (POS) transactions in Nigeria. On the other hand, financial innovation has negative impact on money demand through one period lagged of volume of point of sales in Nigeria. On the stability of the demand for money function, the result of the stability tests based on the CUSUM test and CUSUM of squares test showed that the demand for money function was stable during the evaluation period. The study recommended that monetary policy strategy of the central bank of Nigeria (CBN) should be fine-tuned to ensure it is well suited to deal with the challenges posed by financial innovation by way of proliferation of sophisticated payment channels.
This document summarizes a research article that studied the relationship between financial inclusion, monetary policy, and financial stability in high and low financial development countries from 2004 to 2020. The main findings were:
1) In low financial development countries, financial inclusion and stability are positively correlated but negatively correlated with inflation and money supply growth, implying financial inclusion increases stability and reduces inflation.
2) In high financial development countries, financial inclusion is positively correlated with inflation and money supply growth but negatively correlated with stability, implying inclusion increases instability and long-term inflation.
3) Variance decomposition confirmed these outcomes, showing the relationship is clearer in high financial development countries. The findings suggest different policy recommendations for financial inclusion and monetary policy in
Financial Liberalisation and Economic Growth In Nigeria: An Empirical Analysisiosrjce
This document summarizes a study that empirically examines the relationship between financial liberalization and economic growth in Nigeria from 1981-2012. It begins by providing background on Nigeria's financial system and the gradual process of financial liberalization that began in 1986 and included deregulating interest rates and opening the banking sector to more private competition. The study uses three measures of financial liberalization - an index of financial openness, money supply as a share of GDP, and private sector credit as a share of GDP - to analyze the long-run and short-run relationship with economic growth. The results suggest there is a positive long-run equilibrium relationship between financial liberalization and growth, supporting the view that financial liberalization contributed to financial development and economic
Impact of injection and withdrawal of money stock on economic growth in nigeriaAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a study that examines the impact of injecting and withdrawing money stock on economic growth in Nigeria from 1970 to 2008. It uses regression analysis to study the relationship between money supply (M2) and interest rates as indicators of money stock changes, and gross domestic product (GDP) as a measure of economic growth. The study finds that injecting money stock by increasing the money supply tends to reduce interest rates and increase investment, thereby stimulating economic growth. However, excessive money stock increases that are not matched by growth in real output can lead to inflation instead of higher growth.
This document summarizes a research journal article that examines the determinants of fiscal growth in Jordan. The study uses time series data from 1982-2010 to analyze the relationships between fiscal growth rates and several independent variables, including available liquidity in banking, private sector credit rates, stock market capitalization, and government fiscal policy. The study found positive statistical relationships between fiscal growth and the first three variables, but did not prove an impact of fiscal policy. It recommends policies to encourage bank mergers, intellectual property rights, and coordinating fiscal and monetary policies to link them with economic growth.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this research to analyze relationship equilibrium to the long-term and short-term
between the current account balance and foreign exchange reserve. As datum from the world bankstarts from
1982 until 2018, the used methodology Error Correction Model (ECM). The result of the estimate and analysis
were the current account balance and foreign exchange reserve stationary at level with the ADF test. The
variables had relationship equilibrium for the long-term and had one-way causality. That was the foreign
exchange reserve that causesthe current account balance. For the long-term, the current account balance had
positively and not significantly to change the development of the foreign exchange reserves. From the shortterm disequilibrium relationship to the equilibrium relationship, the current account balance had negatively and
not significantly too to change the development of the foreign exchange reserves.The value of the current
account balance of Indonesia has a deficit in some periods. Itwould have a bad impact on domestic foreign
exchange reserves. To the Government, the Ministry of Trade to keep the export performance to the stability of
the current account balance surplus to increase the Indonesian economic growth.

Exploring Digital Payments, Financial Inclusion, and Monetary Policy in Indiaijtsrd
The global financial landscape has undergone a profound transformation with the advent of digital payment technologies, influencing monetary policy paradigms and fostering financial inclusion initiatives. This research investigates the interplay between digital payments, financial inclusivity, and their relationship with the overarching objectives of monetary policy. The study delves into the multifaceted impact of digital payment systems on the attainment of monetary policy goals. It scrutinizes the role of digital financial services in fostering greater access to financial resources for underserved populations, thereby addressing issues of financial exclusion. Moreover, it assesses the implications of enhanced financial inclusivity on broader economic variables, such as consumption patterns, savings behavior, and income distribution, which are pivotal concerns for central banks in their pursuit of stability and growth. Furthermore, the research analyzes the efficacy of digital payment infrastructures in influencing the transmission mechanisms of monetary policy. It investigates how these technologies may alter the velocity of money, liquidity preferences, and the effectiveness of policy tools in steering economic variables toward desired targets, such as price stability and sustainable growth. The findings of this research are expected to contribute to policy discourse by providing a nuanced understanding of how leveraging digital payment innovations can potentially align with and augment the efficacy of monetary policy frameworks. Ultimately, it seeks to offer recommendations for policymakers, financial institutions, and regulators to leverage digital finance as a catalyst for advancing both financial inclusion goals and the broader aims of monetary policy in an increasingly digitalized global economy.

Abstract
The research aims to study the impact of financial liberalization on broad money in Sri Lanka during the
period 1977-2011.Financial liberalization index was calculated for evaluation the complex process of financial
liberalization in Sri Lanka by focusing on important changes in the financial sector. The study has used ten major
policy components of financial liberalization to construct financial liberalization index at a particular time. In
order to derive the index, Principle Component Method is employed. Impact of financial liberalization on broad
money is examined by using computed index and other related variables for money demand in economics
literature. The study reveals that there is a positive relationship between broad money and financial liberalization
in Sri Lanka in the short run. Therefore, this study opens the door to examine whether financial liberalization
positively impacts on broad money in Sri Lanka in the long run as short run.
Keywords: Financial liberalization, broad money, Principal Component analysis.
Introduction
A major turning point in the financial sector in Sri Lanka came after liberalization policies were introduced in
1977. Financial Liberalization was part of the economic policy package. Financial Liberalization has become an
emerging trend in both developed and developing countries from 1970s. Since the mid 1980s the World Bank
and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) started to prescribe financial liberalization as a basic framework for
developing member countries to accelerate economic growth. Financial liberalization in Sri Lanka started in
1977 with the specific aim of developing the economy.
Sri Lanka has implemented financial liberalization reform in order to widen and deepen the financial system
under open economic framework. The whole liberalization reforms can be divided into two phases. The period
from 1977-1989is known as the pre and after 1989 it was known as post 1989 period. The first phase focused on
interest rate, exchange rate and banking reform and the second phase focused on stabilization and further
relaxation of remaining restriction on trade and payments (Cooray 2003).
Researchers have identified many channels through which the financial liberalization may affect broad money.
But, very little researches have been undertaken to evaluate the impact of financial liberalization using an index.
Therefore, the objective of this study is to examine the impact of financial liberalization on broad money with
the help of the constructed index calculated by the researcher. The index reflects the level and consequences of
financial liberalization policies in Sri Lanka. But this study covers the short run relationship only.
Literature Review
Financial liberalization refers to the process to liberalize the financial sector of a country with an aim to create
favorable environment to increase the money demand in the economy. It takes place either by increasing the
financial resources to lead a supply induced demand for money or by creating a suitable environment for making
an investment in the economy.
The study of impact of financial liberalization on various aspects of the economy is quite interested and
debatable area among economists. Conceptually financial liberalization aims to improve management and
resource allocation in an economy. The financial liberalization ultimately has a positive impact on the real
economy. But increased competition between financial institutions, enhanced intermediation, increased number
of banks and availability of financial instrument to money may affect lowering the demand for money.
Furthermore there can be shifts between the various categories of money. As interest rates are liberalized on time

deposits, private agents may shift their assets from currency and demand deposits, raising the velocity of narrow
money, but lowering the velocity of broad money (James 2005).
Perera et al. (2007) examines the role of financial liberalization on money demand and economic growth
employing Autoregressive Distributed Lag Approach in Sri Lankan data for the period of 1963-2006.They assert
that financial liberalization has a significant negative impact on narrow and broad money demand in the long
run, while such impact is found to be positive in the short run but not significant.
Blevins (1999) examined the effects of financial liberalization on the money demand in Peru for the period 19791997.Author has presented evidence of a change in the long run elasticity of money demand and its determinants
which occurred in 1991.The shift in the money demand function was caused by the measures which the
government took to bring down inflation as well as by the financial reforms that have been instituted. Despite the
changes in the structure of the financial system, there has been a close relationship between the rate of growth of
money and the rate of inflation in Peru. He concluded that there is no consensus about the sequence that must be
followed in a process of financial liberalization with complete opening of the capital account in order to reach
price stability and economic growth.
Aktham (2003) tests empirically whether there exists a stable function of demand for money in Jordan over the
period of 1976 – 2000. A stable money demand function is considered essential for the formulation and conduct
of efficient monetary policy. An accurate calibration of the long- run and dynamics and effects of rate of return
on the demand for money are important in the design and assessment of the macroeconomic implications of
financial liberalization and for the adoption of indirect monetary policy instruments. The empirical foundation
for the conduct of a stable money demand function in Jordan is evaluated using the co integration analysis and
error correction model. The results indicate that financial liberalization since 1988 may have induced a
significant change in money demand in Jordan by increasing financial savings in the form of money holdings in
the domestic banking system.
Reinhart et al. (2005) studied what happens to key macroeconomic variables following domestic and external
financial liberalization. Their sample covers 50 countries, 14 developed countries and 36 developing countries
for the period 1970-1998.The selected annual data series were gross national savings, gross investment, current
account balance, gross private capital flows, foreign direct investment, GDP growth, consumption, real interest
rate, their ration of narrow money to broad money (M 1/M 2), credit to private sector and the spread between
lending and deposit rates. He analyzed what happen to the variables before and after financial liberalization. He
compared pre and post liberalization means for each indicator and test for differences, allowing the possibility
that the variances may have also changed across regimes.Reinhart concluded that; with greater certainty,
financial liberalization appear to deliver; high real interest rates, lower investment, but not lower growth; a
higher level of foreign direct investment; and high gross capital flows the catch is that occurs only in the higher
income countries. Liberalization appears to deliver financial deepening, as measured by the credit and monetary
aggregate but again, low income countries do not appear to show clear signs of such a benefit. As regard savings,
savings increased following financial sector reforms in some regions, but in the majority cases savings declined.
Khan et al. (2011) examine the effect of financial liberalization on demand for money in Pakistan. They
employed Co integration and Auto Regressive Distributed Lag to co integration in order to determine the long
run relationship between broad money (M2) and Gross Domestic Product, financial liberalization index, real
deposit rate and exchange rate. The short as well as long run results indicate that Gross Domestic Product
,financial liberalization index ,real deposit rate positively influence the long run demand for money in Pakistan.
The results suggest that financial liberalization boosts demand for money in the long run.
The effect of financial liberalization in four ASEAN countries i. e.0 Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and
Thailand on real money demand has been estimated by Dekle and Pradhan (1999).Using Johansan Full
Information Maximum Likelihood procedure for long run real money demand, the study found that demand
equation was cointegrated.The real money and its determinants (interest rate, real income and financial
innovation index as a proxy for financial liberalization) move together in the long run. They conclude that
demand for money remained stable despite financial banking market and liberalization for restrictions on crossbroader capital flows remained considerably higher in these countries than other developing economies.
Akhtaruzzaman (2007) analyzed the effect of globalization and financial liberalization on demand for money in
Bangladesh by using Co integration and vector Error Correction Model. The study concluded that process of

globalization has no significant influence on demand for money but financial liberalization has a significant
effect.
Materials and Methods
This study is mainly based on secondary data published from Central Bank of Sri Lanka and Department of
Census and Statistics of Sri Lanka. The time series data of 35 years (1977-2011) is collected to construct the
index. In order to construct the financial liberalization index, the Principal Component Method is employed. To
achieve the objective of examining the impact of financial liberalization on money demand Ordinary Least
Square (OLS) method is employed.
Results and Discussion
The study used directly related 10 major policy components of financial liberalization package in Sri Lanka to
construct the index; Interest Rate (IR), Decontrol of exchange rates(ER),Reserve Requirements (RR),Credit
Supply (CS),Capital Account Liberalization (CAL), Current Account Liberalization (CAAL), Share Market
Reform (SR), Bond Market Reform (BMR), Money Market Reform (MMR),Banking Policy Reforms (BPR).
In order to construct the financial liberalization index, some arbitrary value is assigned to each of the selected
policy components. Each policy component takes value between 0 and 1depending on the implementation status
of the policy. When a particular policy component is fully liberalized, that variable takes a value of 1 and when
the variable remains regulated it takes a value of 0.If liberalization occurs in a gradual process in some contexts
0.25,0.5 and 0.75values are assigned as some selected variables have been liberalized in different phases. The
assigned values presented in their implementation status are used to construct the index .The weight of each of
the component is calculated by employing the Principle Component method. The index can be expressed as
following formula.
FLIt =w1IR+w2ER+w3RR+w4CS+w5CAL+w6CAAL+w7SR+w8BMR+w9MMR+w10BPR....................(1)
Where:
FLIt = Financial Liberalization index at respective year
Wi = weight of the component given by the respective eigenvector of the selected principle component. The
Eigen values and Eigenvectors of the correlation matrix of financial liberalization policy variables are shown in

The index equation (1) with the fixed values weight based on arrives at equation (2) as:
FLIt = 0.105417IR + 0.10979ER + 0.056118RR + 0.075192CS + 0.106529CAL + 0.107976CAAL +

Then equation (2) with weight of variables multiply the correspondent value for all ten variables,the index for
the individual policy components was calculated. Finally the financial liberalization index for each year is
obtained by summing up the calculated values of all 10 policy variables for the respective year.
In the economic literature, there is a general agreement that demand for money is primarily a demand for real
balances. Keynes postulated three motives for holding real money balances: transaction, precautionary and
speculative. Following the liquidity preference theory, economist have questioned Keynes’ rational for a
speculative demand for money and have contributed to the theoretical literature by distinguishing between the
transaction demand for money and the assets motive (Friedman 1956; Tobin1958).
To investigate the association between demand for money and financial liberalization the following log linear
model has been used with the help of economics literature on money demand.
Ln (M2) = a1+a2LRGDP+a3RDR+a4FLI+a5ER+e t
Where: M =Real money demand (Broad Real Money Demand M2)
a1= intercept
a2, a3, a4, a5 = Coefficients of relevant variables
RGDP =Real Gross Domestic Product
RDR=Real Deposit Rate
FLI =Financial Liberalization Index (Constructed index by the author)
ER=Exchange rate

According to computed OLS results, the model can now be mathematically expressed in the short run as;

From the regression analysis results, it could be inferred that the constant parameter is positively related to
broad money. This is implies that if all the explanatory variables are held constant, broad money which is the
explained variable will increase by 6.434 units. The coefficient of FLI is 2.078.It reveals that there is a positive
relationship between broad money and financial liberalization in Sri Lanka in the short run. The coefficient of
multiple determination denoted as R2 with a value of 0.962 shows that 96% of total variation in broad money can
be explained by RGDP, RDR, FLI and ER while remaining 4%is being explained by the stochastic/error term in
the model.
Conclusion
Most of the past studies considered only full liberalization level or non liberalization level for their
evaluation of impact of financial liberalization on various aspects. But, this study has presented the real picture
of financial liberalization process in Sri Lanka by considering various phases of policy reforms in financial
liberalisation.This index would make it easy to further studies on financial liberalization Sri Lanka. Further, the
study reveals that there is a positive relationship between broad money and financial liberalization in Sri Lanka
in the short run.Therfore, this study opens the door to examine whether financial liberalization positively impacts
on broad money in Sri Lanka in the long run as short run.
