Case Study (Finance and Development in Emerging Asia)
This course aims to deepen student understanding of development issues in emerging Asia with a focus on financing aspects and thus to prepare students for future professional positions in the field of development finance. We will discuss policy options to enhance the finance-development nexus and to address risks entailed in the process. As a practical training course, students will have the opportunity to debate, work in a team, make oral presentation and produce memos and reports.
Specific features of the course are as follows.
In order to provide the background knowledge for a better understanding of key concepts, the course will revisit development performance of Asia’s emerging economies since the 1980s. Learning from the past will help identify contributing factors to development as well as risks entailed in policy actions. We will also discuss opportunities and challenges in various approaches and policy initiatives in development finance such as Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and community-based finance.
One of the underlying questions is how to correct shortcomings in the finance-development nexus through public policy with an effective incentive design and minimum market distortions. Furthermore, we will discuss policy options in a broader geopolitical context by asking such a question as how China/India and Japan could collaborate to promote sustainable development in Asia. Discussion topics will also include China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the emergence of Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), a new multilateral lender in Asia.
Following several sessions for learning key concepts, the course will provide students with a policy planning exercise—students will be asked to choose a specific country case and to prepare reports on development strategy and policy proposals with a focus on the finance-development nexus.
