Financial System

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In finance, the financial system is the system that allows the transfer of money between savers (and investors) and borrowers.[1] A financial system can operate on a global, regional or firm specific level. Gurusamy, writing in Financial Services and Systems has described it as comprising "a set of complex and closely interconnected financial institutions, markets, instruments, services, practices, and transactions."[2]

According to Franklin Allen and Douglas Gale in Comparing Financial Systems:

   "Financial systems are crucial to the allocation of resources in a modern economy. They channel household savings to the corporate sector and allocate investment funds among firms; they allow intertemporal smoothing of consumption by households and expenditures by firms; and they enable households and firms to share risks. These functions are common to the financial systems of most developed economies. Yet the form of these financial systems varies widely."[3]

Financial systems depend on the countries viewpoint on freedom of trade. Some countries i.e. The Soviet Union had socialist financial systems because they value centralized organized state funded trading rather than freedom of trade by everyone.
