In November 2011, the G-20 endorsed an action plan to support the development of local currency bond markets (LCBM). International institutions—the IMF, the World Bank, the EBRD, and the OECD—were asked to draw on their experience to develop a diagnostic framework (DF) to identify general preconditions, key components, and constraints for successful LCBM development. The objective is to provide a tool for analyzing the state of development and efficiency of local currency bond markets. The application of the DF is expected to be flexible, bearing in mind that the potential for LCBM development depends on economic size, financing needs, and stage of economic development.

Building local currency bond markets has become an increasingly important topic for emerging market countries, particularly since the Asian financial crisis. This report reviews why countries should consider building local currency corporate bond markets and how to evaluate what is needed and what might be developed. It includes eight country studies: Republic of Korea, Australia, Malaysia, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal. It is based on the IFC-sponsored South Asia Debt Market Symposium held in October 1999 in Sri Lanka, which brought together regulators and market participants from around Asia and other parts of the globe to discuss issues in developing local markets. The report is divided into two parts: Part I addresses why and how to develop bond markets. It begins with a chapter describing a framework for evaluating bond market development (which was used to produce the five South Asian country surveys in Chapters 11-15), and summarizes key points from the symposium papers and the South Asian situation. It is followed by presentations on the importance of bond markets and on the risk-management of bonds and the benefits of supranational issuance. Part II consists of country case studies.
