Comparison of Bank-Oriented or Market-Oriented Financial System and Inspiration

Abstract

In order to get benefits from trade, financial system plays an important role. Without financial system, commodities are traded in spot market. Every family collects capitals by self resources. To collect capitals by the internal financing to build railways is just as the words said by Marx in Capital: "I am afraid of no railways till today." In present economic system, financial system has two kinds of structures, namely the market-oriented one and the bank intermediary-oriented one. By comparing the two structures, we can get useful experiences for references. After the South Sea Bubble and Mississippi Scheme, different treatments result in sharply different financial system structures: the stock market-oriented Anglo-Saxon model and the bank-oriented Europe continent model. At present lots of countries, including developed countries and developing countries adopt the two kinds of financial systems.
