This study is written by one of the stimulating forces in Fondad's research project on regionalism and multilateralism, Indian economist and investment banker Percy S. Mistry. Earlier drafts served as a framework paper to guide and inspire the thinking of participants in Fondad conferences. Mistry reviews issues arising from experience with arrangements for regional economic cooperation and integration in developing and developed regions of the world. Given the plethora and complexity of the issues involved ranging from trade, finance and monetary matters to institutional, social and political affairs the author has chosen a broad approach. However, at various points Mistry also presents some of his more detailed insights and policy suggestions. «
