Description
Asia's securities markets offer exciting opportunities for investors, yet they are difficult to navigate and subject to rapidly changing regulatory regimes. Securities practitioners, their advisors and regulators require comprehensive, independent, and up-to-date information about these markets.
Asia-Pacific Securities Markets is the definitive guide for securities professionals operating in the Asia-Pacific region. The thorough review includes summaries of regulations, listing rules, trading and settlement procedures, taxation and foreign investment procedures for 11 markets. The market descriptions include key statistics and financial data, but also go beyond the facts to explain the character and culture of each market.
This fourth edition has been revised and updated to reflect the many changes in Asia's securities markets since the last edition was published in 1997. A new chapter on Vietnam's emerging securities market has been added, and the chapters on development and the comparison of the Asia-Pacific markets have been largely rewritten.
Each country chapter is consistently structured to allow comparison between markets and includes:
โข Country profile
โข Stock market overview
โข Secondary stock market
โข Derivatives and structured products
โข Securities regulatory framework
โข Primary stock market
โข Debt securities markets
