The overall goal of the TA is to promote an efficient bond market in the region as this will lead to stable financial markets and sustained economic growth in ASEAN 3. Furthermore, bond markets play an important role in mobilizing capital for investments that are critical for economic development. This goal can be achieved by enhancing the capacity of officials from policy making institutions and supervisory agencies (such as ministries of finance, central banks, financial services authorities, and securities and exchange commissions) of DMCs in ASEAN 3 to promote appropriate policy measures for bond market development. As a result, this TA will not only provide policy makers with a deeper understanding of bond market regulatory and supervisory best practices, but will also equip them on how best to take appropriate actions (whether preventive or corrective measures) for varying market conditions given their extensive knowledge of how bond markets function.

| Description | The overall goal of the TA is to promote an efficient bond market in the region as this will lead to stable financial markets and sustained economic growth in ASEAN 3. Furthermore, bond markets play an important role in mobilizing capital for investments that are critical for economic development. This goal can be achieved by enhancing the capacity of officials from policy making institutions and supervisory agencies (such as ministries of finance, central banks, financial services authorities, and securities and exchange commissions) of DMCs in ASEAN 3 to promote appropriate policy measures for bond market development. As a result, this TA will not only provide policy makers with a deeper understanding of bond market regulatory and supervisory best practices, but will also equip them on how best to take appropriate actions (whether preventive or corrective measures) for varying market conditions given their extensive knowledge of how bond markets function. The TA aims to design and provide training courses programs for bond market development to enhance the knowledge and skills of capital market regulatory agencies. It also aims to provide a venue for regional policy dialogues and cross country consultations on bond market development issues. The expected outcomes are (i) support for multiple regional collaborative initiatives for capacity building in bond market development in targeted DMCs (ii) identify core strategic issues and training needs to be addressed in the programs and activities of the TA over a 3 year period and (iii) sustainable mechanisms for ensuring continuing training development at the country level. The TA complements efforts by OREI to (i) promote regional economic policy dialogue and (ii) support capacity building and institutional strengthening in the area of regional cooperation and integration. These training programs and course modules will enable participants to share experiences and explore appropriate policy measures for developing efficient domestic bond markets. The training program will cover ASEAN 3 member countries except Japan, Republic of Korea and Singapore. | ||||
