Banking Without Borders

the long version

"Despite all the controversy surrounding NAFTA, very little attention was paid to the impact on the financial sector. Yet, free trade experts agree that banks and other institutions are the critical ingredient to successful free trade. [This book] details the opportunities and dangers that lie ahead for the financial markets in an open market, including the two major areas for growth: international expansion and attracting customers seeking international services. ...[The work] includes: a focus on the entire financial services spectrum; a review of major free trade treaties; business opportunities for banks of all sizes; current restrictions and opportunities for financial institutions; input from free trade experts in the U.S., Canadian, and Mexican governments."--Back cover.
