This roundtable discusses the challenges of capital formation in emerging markets, highlighting low market capitalization and trade velocity. Domestic investors often seek global liquidity while international investors face limited access. Major issues like ownership structures, the dominance of state-owned companies, and the reliance on bank financing hinder market development. The low supply of quality stocks, weak corporate governance, and insufficient engagement from local and international institutional investors contribute to a vicious cycle. Understanding these factors is crucial for fostering more robust capital markets.
