Book Description

A co-publication with Simmonds and Hill In this important study, Dr. Zhu Sanzhu offers a thorough account of the tortuous passage of China from an experimental securities market, subject to regional and local or ministerial regulation, to a full-fledged national securities law. China has conducted its securities experiments within a limited private and quasi-private sector, not linking them, as has been true in Central and Eastern Europe, to the rapid privatisation of the instruments and means of production. The capital markets in China are, for certain actors in the economy, a test of economic performance, economic efficiency, and public confidence. Dr Zhu also provides a translation of the Securities Law of the People's Republic of China along with a glossary of Chinese terms. This volume is an essential resource for all those engaging in business with China or studying the integration of the Chinese economy into the world community. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.
