چکیده

Recent research on financial market development has focused on the nature of the legal system. The law-and-finance literature, however, exclusively focuses on the abuse of management power as a major cause of shareholder expropriation. The role of the administrative capability of the state in providing and guaranteeing the institutional foundations for securities development is thereby overlooked. The characteristic feature of bureaucracy is predictable, calculable and methodical performance. Our analysis of the linkage between state bureaucratic performance and financial market development confirms our hypothesis that arm’s length finance not only needs a reliable legal environment, but also bureaucratic effectiveness. (1) We provide evidence that state bureaucratic performance plays a crucial role in determining financial market development; (2) We find that legal origin plays an indirect role, as it affects the financial market development through the bureaucratic channel, but it does not exert a direct and independent effect.
