Abstract

This paper analyses whether there has been an increase in the degree of financial market integration during the nineties. To do this, we focus on stock markets and compute, first, a number of standard measures of co-movements that sometimes are interpreted as measures of financial integration. In the second part of the paper we compute two alternative measures of market integration based on a refinement of the approach suggested by Chen and Knez (1995).
