How can developing country governments seek to initiate the economic transformation that so many desire? For many countries the dramatic shift from low to high added-value activities will involve the export of tradeable services, particularly professional services. The authors look in detail at the services-driven economic transformation that is occurring in Mauritius and make specific recommendations for improvements in infrastructure, human resource capacity and the regulatory environment. The service sectors examined here―financial services, information and communication technologies, health care services, and human resources services―offer lessons that have much to teach economic planners in other developing country economies.

What have been the consequences of recent regulatory initiatives on international financial centers in small countries? This study of three small Commonwealth countries―Barbados, Mauritius and Vanuatu―suggests that the costs of implementing these new standards have exceeded any identifiable benefits for the countries concerned. The main factor explaining the adoption of the new standards, in all three countries, is the fear of being blacklisted by international organizations in the event of non-compliance, rather than any identified benefit in terms of increased competitiveness. The authors consider how policy on anti-money laundering should be developed in the future, taking into account the particular concerns of small developing countries. The book will be of interest to all those engaged in setting international standards for financial regulation, and those regulating the finance industry in both large and small countries.
