Description

The authors consider the opportunities for foreign participants in the rapidly evolving People's Republic of China across all sectors of economic activity: banking, securities markets, infrastructure, and business investment. In each case, government regulation, legal structure, market organisation, and recent trends are analysed. Consideration is given to central government strategies to modify policies to achieve particular goals. The foreign participant must be aware of these policy changes and the strategies that guide them. Special attention is given to the foreign exchange system as it affects the foreign participant, and the several reforms undertaken in the foreign exchange sector.
