This book provides unique insights into the politics of finance and
the socio-political relations which drive financial policymaking in
Hong kong, Singapore, and Shanghai. While the existing literature
in the field focuses mainly on economic explanations for financial
centre development, this book fills a gap by focusing on the
socio-political relations which underpin the financial
policy-making process. Drawing on extensive interviews with senior
policy-makers and financial sector professionals, the book
describes how state-industry relations drive financial
policy-making in three major financial hubs. Insights and policy
recommendations drawn from these interviews will be particularly
useful for policy-makers and financial sector professionals hoping
to draw lessons from the successful development of the three
leading Asian financial centres.
