Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Though the poor are rarely primary beneficiaries of financial deepening, they do benefit from improved performance of the macroeconomy. Moreover, because financial deepening benefits new firms, especially, and all firms that rely on external funding, it strengthens economic and political elements with a strong interest in sustaining the financial development. Poverty reduction will proceed, so long as financial development contributes to economic growth, and economic growth creates expanding opportunities for people to rise out of poverty.
