Flow-of-funds
accounting permits to monitor the financial sector in
terms of flows and stocks and to analyze its relationship
with the real sector. Traditionally practised in developed
nations, this accounting has not experienced a parallel
development in developing countries. In order to fill
this gap, the paper undertakes the construction of a
data base of flow-of-funds account matrices for various
Latin American and Asian countries, exemplifying their
use for the study of financial crisis in these regions.
