Study Group: China’s Financial System – similarities and differences to the Western markets

​Study group hosted by M-RCBG Senior Fellow, Marlene Amstad, with guest Prof Dr. Darrell Duffie, Dean Witter Distinguished Professor of Finance at Stanford Graduate School of Business. 

The Chinese economy has become one of the most important in the world, and its success is driven in large parts by its financial system. Though closely scrutinized, China’s system is often poorly understood and can be vastly different when compared to those in the established markets. Based on the newly published Handbook of China’s Financial System, the study group will identify the most important similarities and differences to the main Western financial markets. Focusing on the bond and stock markets, we will also discuss the process of opening China’s capital markets and the challenge of significant indebtedness of China’s SOE’s.
