Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is almost certainly the best survey of official views on China’s financial overhauls published in English… 

…This collection is a good bookshelf companion for bankers and investors actively participating in China’s markets. It’s also a handy cheat sheet for those who have an upcoming meeting with Chinese officials and want to understand their views." 

– Rick Carew, Reporter for Wall Street Journal

From the Inside Flap

China is playing an increasingly important role on the world stage in both economic and political affairs. In the wake of recent events, the country will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in the future of global finance.

China's Emerging Financial Markets presents the thinking of both western and Chinese leaders in the fields of banking, capital markets, and the insurance industry. The volume was conceived and brought to fruition by Editors-in-Chief Zhu Min, Cai Jinqing, and Martha Avery. It includes essays authored by such luminaries as Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase, Zhou Xiaochuan, Governor of the People's Bank of China, Stephen Roach, Chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, and Gao Xiqing, President of China Investment Corporation.

These and other authorities offer varied perspectives on a subject that is proving to be of vital and immediate global concern. That subject is the emergence of China's capital markets, banking and financial systems, how these systems operate and how they interact with global systems. The book is extremely timely, touching as it does on such sensitive subjects as credit markets, exchange rates, and governmental intervention. 

Given its high-profile authorship, China's Emerging Financial Markets is necessary reading for those who seek to understand the strategic direction of this key industry, as well as those who wonder what role China will play in the current global economic crisis.
