They obtain results that are consistent with financially developed economies specializing in "financially dependent" industries in the long run, and allocating resources to industries with high growth opportunities in the short run. 2013-06-19T19:06:51Z 2013-06-19T19:06:51Z 2004-05 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2004/05/4973127/financial-development-growth-short-long-run http://hdl.handle.net/10986/14025 English en_US Policy Research Working Paper;No.3319 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, D.C.
