THIS week Andrew Sheng, a highly respected Central Banker and currently chief
adviser to the China Banking Regulatory Commission, published his latest book:
Shadow Banking in China, an authoritative guide to the rise of Chinese shadow
banking and its systemic implications.
Andrew and co-author Ng Chow Soon examine this rapidly growing sector in the
Chinese economy, and what it means for your investments. It is unique in providing
true, first-hand perspectives from authorities within the world's largest economy.
There is little widely-available information on China's shadow banking developments,
and much of it is rife with disparate data, inaccuracies and overblown risks due to
definitional and measurement differences. The authors clear the confusion by
supplying accurate information, on-the-ground context and invaluable national
balance sheet analysis you won't find anywhere else.
Shadow banking has grown to be a key source of credit in China, and a major
component of the economy. This book serves as a primer for analysts and investors
seeking real, useful information about the sector to better inform investment decisions:
• Discover what's driving the growth of shadow banking in China;
• Learn the truth about both real and inflated risks;
• Dig into popular rhetoric and clarify common misconceptions;
• Access valuable data previously not published in English;
Despite shadow banking's critical influence on the Chinese economy, there have
been very few official studies and even fewer books written on the subject.
Understanding China's present-day economy and forecasting its future requires an in-
depth understanding of shadow banking and its inter-relationship with the banking
system and other sectors. provides authoritative reference that will prove valuable to
anyone with financial interests in China.
