Acknowledgements
First, and most important, we wish to thank the contributors to the Handbook. We are delighted to have brought together such an outstanding set of research experts from academic and policy arenas across Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and Australasia. These experts have shown a high level of commitment and perseverance to the project from beginning to end. Without their expertise, dedication, and efficiency in producing scholarly banking chapters this Handbook would never have been possible.
The production of this Handbook has also relied heavily on the exceptional enthusiasm and commitment of Oxford University Press, most notably Adam Swallow, publisher for Economics and Finance, who was crucial in helping us kick-start the project. Oxford University Press delegates and a number of anonymous referees also played an important role in advising on the shape of the Handbook.
We would like to thank and acknowledge Verity Rimmer and also Katie Bishop, whose advice was invaluable and who was always on hand to help and worked closely with us throughout the entire process. The team in New York also played a valuable role, and so we’d like to thank Viviana Lachmund and Laura Heston. Manikandan Chandrasekaran and Jen Hinchliffe also played a crucial role toward the end of the project. We would also like to acknowledge the support of our home institutions: the Moore School of Business at the University of South Carolina; the College of Business Administration at the University of Sharjah; and the Centre for Responsible Banking & Finance at the Management School, University of St Andrews. We would especially like to thank Dorothy Campbell who provided excellent assistance in preparing the final manuscript prior to submission.
During the writing of this Handbook, Fernando José Cardim de Carvalho, Emeritus Professor at UFRJ (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and Senior Fellow at the Levy Economics Institute, Bard College in New York passed away on the 16th of May, 2018. He was 64 years old. Fernando was one of Brazil’s most revered economists. A leader of the post-Keynesian economists in Brazil, he was an associate editor of the Journal of Post Keynesian Economics. Among his many published works, he authored Mr Keynes and the Post Keynesians (Edward Elgar, 1992), and Liquidity Preference and Monetary Economics (Routledge, 2015). Fernando was an active and leading voice in discussions about money and financial systems and was writing until the time of his passing. Fernando wrote the excellent section on Latin American Development Banks: Some New Developments or an Impasse? in Chapter 37 of this Handbook, Banking in Latin America: Developments and Prospects. As always, Fernando provided valuable
insights, expert analysis, and perfect context, which is indicative of his great intellect and contribution to knowledge.
Finally, we would like to thank our families and friends for their encouragement and patience over the last decade while completing the three editions of the Handbook. Their support is always very much appreciated.
