There are too many commas!

Hi,

Having plenty of commas in the sentence and being too long have confused me, so I can't understand the concept!! Could you please help me with it?

Of the many important lessons learnt from the Asian financial crisis, good governance, sound institutions, as well as the development of stronger Asian brands, stood out as being key to economic recovery, the latter being one of the few means of helping local Asian companies diversify geographically, thus providing greater stability and reducing over-dependence on the domestic market for growth.

Regards,
Nesa
