Privatization and Emerging Equity Markets

by Ira W. Lieberman and Christopher Kirkness

This report argues that privatization and equity market development are inextricably linked and mutually reinforcing. It illustrates the effects of privatization on the emerging equity markets for: developing countries which are experimenting with privatization; transition economies which are beginning case-by-case privatization and are seeking maximum revenue from privatization; and countries seeking to privatize large, strategic enterprizes.
