摘要
Using data on 78 countries from 1984 to 2008 and a large number of controls, this article studies the unemployment effect of a major characteristic of the financial system: its level of sophistication, i.e. the variety of financial institutions and instruments available to the economy. It finds that a higher level of sophistication is likely to reduce unemployment. The magnitude of the estimated effect is moderate but noticeable.
