This book focuses on a variety of themes concerning the relationships between financial systems in a broader sense and firms' growth in historical perspective in some European countries.
The chapters in this book present case studies on Belgium (S. Ugolini), Great Britain (M. Billings, S. Mollan & P. Garnett; P. Kern & G. Schnyder), France (E. Bonhoure & D. Le Bris) and Italy (A. Rinaldi & A. Spadavecchia) and show that financial systems do not trigger growth processes and industrialization, but they are essential to sustain them over time.
Bank-industry versus Stock Market-Industry Relationships will be a beneficial read for students interested in Economics and Business History.
