APEC FINANCE MINISTERS ENDORSE PROPOSAL FOR A "CATALOGUE OF POLICY EXPERIENCE AND CHOICES"
The Melbourne Centre for Financial Studies was engaged by the Australian Treasury in 2006 to assist in developing a proposal for creation of a "Catalogue of Policy Experience and Choices" regarding financial reform experience in APEC Economies. This work formed the basis of the proposal considered and supported by the APEC Finance Ministers at their Meeting on August 2-3 in Queensland. The relevant extract from their 2007 14TH APEC FINANCE MINISTERS’ MEETING JOINT MINISTERIAL STATEMENT is reproduced below, and the full statement can be found at http://www.apec.org/etc/medialib/apec_media_library/downloads/news_uploads/2007fmm/ii.Par.0001.File.tmp/07_FMM_JMS.pdf
8. Reform of Financial Sector: Catalogue of Policy Experience and Choices
(Australia, Indonesia, China, Japan and Vietnam – Australia, Indonesia, China and ADB for Catalogue)
The initiative comprised three policy dialogue workshops held in the People’s Republic of China, Indonesia and Australia. A key outcome of the initiative is the development of a web-based information resource on financial sector reform, the ‘Catalogue of Policy Experience and Choices’. The catalogue will be a secure, web-based information resource on financial sector reform experience for finance ministries, central banks and financial sector regulatory agencies in APEC. It will allow policy makers and regulators to draw upon the benefit of experience in developing and implementing financial sector reform in accordance with their individual circumstances.
