Franses Overige leden: Prof.dr. D.J.C. van Dijk Prof.dr. A. de Jong Dr. S.T.M. Straetmans Summary Stock markets in emerging economies are often viewed as a source of financial development and ultimately economic growth. Well-operating or efficient stock markets may contribute to the development of a country’s financial sector through increase in savings, efficient allocation of capital to the most profitable investments and improved use of the existing resources. Efficiency of stock markets is especially important for countries with developing economies as these countries aim to catch up with global economic growth. For countries with emerging economies to benefit from equity financing, it is important that their stock exchanges at least pass the lowest level of market efficiency, that is, weak-form efficiency. This implies that existing stock prices reflect all information about historical prices and trading volumes. Emerging economies share common features in particular with respect to their financial sector where the banking system dominates in raising finance, while stock markets are relatively less important (indirect versus direct finance).

  • Investment Guide
    SURINAME INVESTMENT GUIDE Where Business equals Quality of Life INVESTMENT GUIDE SURINAME Where Business equals Quality of Life INVESTMENT GUIDE SURINAME Where Business equals Quality of Life PREFACE In the last number of years, Suriname made significant steps to integrate its economy into the globalizing world economy. By becoming a member of the Caribbean Community in 1995, a process started which included regulatory reforms and trade liberalization with the purpose of modernizing the economy and cutting red tape. In 2004, the country was able to reach a positive trade balance. For decades, the US and The Netherlands were significant trading partners of Suriname. Regional integration is an important policy aspect of the current Government which took office in August of 2010. By following a conscious strategy of integrating into non traditional markets and participating in the South American integration process, the country is opening doors to investors who will see opportunities in mining, a wide range of services, agriculture, cultural diversity, communications and value added products. By deepening the relationship with traditional trading partners with investment modalities and implementing a South South strategy with nontraditional partners, the economy of Suriname is being transformed into an emerging market. Suriname is a unique and safe place with the natural resources and geological characteristics of South America, the warmth of the Caribbean, a cultural diversity found nowhere else, and a constantly improving investment and business climate. The Government makes serious effort to make Suriname a better place do to business and will treat all investors alike, according to the Most Favorite Nation principles.

  • Artikel Zunder
    Academic Journal of Suriname 2011, 2, 150 - 167 Social Sciences Full-length paper A new look on the economic history of Suriname* including a methodology to calculate reparations for damage caused by Dutch colonial rule. Armand Zunder Abstract Suriname was created by design by merchant bankers and members of the Dutch elite in the Dutch Government, the elite in the City of Amsterdam and the elite of the other major Cities at that time. All services to produce and sell the commodities would be supplied by the merchant bankers. The Dutch elite in the Central Government and City Governments profited indirectly from the Colony by gathering taxes from the merchant bankers. Besides this employment opportunities were created in the harbours and other locations, all related to the original business from Suriname. During the period of the plantation-economy the amount of goods shipped from Suriname amounted to 1.763.442.000 florins, of which around 76% was shipped to the Netherlands (mainly Amsterdam). The remaining 24% was shipped to England and the USA. The net present value of the goods imported in the Netherlands in the period 1683-1939 amounts to €. 126 billion at year end 2006. People were enslaved on the African West coast and shipped to Suriname to work on plantation estates. Meanwhile production took place under circumstances of extreme Human Rights abuses, where Mental Slavery was also systematically practised as a tool of total control towards the enslaved. Following the Durban conference 1 I published a book on reparations. In this book a methodology to calculate reparations in the Suriname case was introduced.
