Abstract: The objective of this paper is to present an overview of the studies under ERIA Research Project “Linkages between Real and Financial Aspects of Economic Integration in Asia” conducted in FY 2009. The objective of this research is to understand the relationship between the financial side of the economy and the real activities of firm, consumers, and workers. We would like to understand the contribution of both real and financial integration to growth and to welfare, and to enquire whether increases in either or both forms build the linkage between the real and financial economy. The first part of this study begins with chapters that address the measurement of regional integration compared with the engagement with the global economy and how this influences the aggregate behavior of the economies. The second part turns to a consideration of the financial sector and the efficiency and performance of banking in the region. This allows a discussion whether, in the current crisis, the banking sector was an important channel of financial shock into real behavior. The third part turns to the corporate sector. Using data on firms, type of finance used by firms, its impact on their performance, and ownership structure influence over the productivity growth are discussed. Based on the findings, we present several policy recommendation and future research agenda for further economic integration in East Asia.
