 ISUMA : Canadian Stock Markets and North American Integration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)

Two financial markets are considered to be integrated if the shares traded on them promise the same return after adjustment for risk.[ 3 ] A number of factors can obstruct the flow of capital between markets in different countries and thus affect the extent to which they are integrated.
While such evolution is still continuing in the derivatives market, competition is also forcing stock exchanges operating under different jurisdictions to put pressure on lawmakers to reconsider the limits their legislation imposes on financial markets, in cases where such limits are preventing stock markets from rising to the challenge of foreign competition.

Although none of the other nations appears to be facing an imminent economic collapse as in Mexico, the two-month-old crisis has had a major impact on some of the other economies, and the ripple effect of the peso devaluation will likely be felt for a long time to come.
Rather, the peso devaluation has affected most emerging markets around the world, since the Mexican crisis is seen as a warning to transfer investments back to the stable markets of the advanced industrialized countries.
But the plunge on Brazil's stock markets since the peso crisis began, combined with a tendency toward trade deficits in the past three months as a result of the real-dollar parity, is now increasing the pressure to devalue local currency.
