China Macro Finance: A US Perspective

Author: Ronald M. Schramm
ISBN: 978-1-63625-689-4

In this new edition of China Macro Finance: A US Perspective, Professor Ron Schramm delves into what makes the Chinese economy and financial system unique and fundamentally different from that of the United States. Building on the key drivers of the Chinese economy, he utilizes numerous Case Studies and Macro Finance Insights to shed light on some of the most puzzling aspects of the world’s second-largest economy. No other textbook so adeptly applies insights from finance and management to the macroeconomic problems of a country, providing useful tools and data to analyze not just China, but any emerging economy.
China has evolved in important ways since the publication of the first edition of this textbook. A burgeoning service sector, slowing returns on investment, and the ebbs and tides of the China’s real estate market all provide grist for a reconsideration of where China is and where it is going. New challenges and opportunities also present themselves: the Trump trade war, the COVID-19 shock, President Xi Jinping’s One Belt One Road initiative, e-money, and the weave and weft of China’s social safety net. A new chapter on China’s financial system is required reading for a deep and broad understanding of opportunities and pitfalls in Chinese corporate finance and asset management. This textbook is intended for master’s students and advanced undergraduate students in economics, finance, or international affairs.
