Handbook of Asian Finance: Financial Markets and Sovereign Wealth Funds

Twenty chapters describe the structure of Asian banking systems and financial networks, current trends and attitudes in Asian financial markets, and the management of Asian sovereign wealth funds. The academic contributors examine the correlation between house prices and bank lending in Korea, the effect of bank mergers on shareholder value in Japan, Asian market reactions to U.S. macroeconomic news, bribery in China and Hong Kong, corporate governance transparency, and the asset allocation strategy of China Investment Corporation.
