A Comprehensive Guide for Finance Professionals

Praise for Investment Banking & Investment Opportunities in
China



"I first met Tom Liaw when my company was exploring potential
opportunities in Taiwan. He clearly knew the market and proved
invaluable in explaining the financial landscape and in arranging
meetings with potential clients, other market participants, and
senior government officials. Investment Banking and Investment
Opportunities in China should prove equally valuable as we now look
to further expand our activities to mainland China."

-Douglas Reinfeld-Miller, EVP, Ambac Assurance, and Chairman/CEO,
Ambac Assurance UK Ltd



"There is no more important market than China today. Dr. Liaw's
book provides an overview of the current situation and
recommendations as to how investors can profit from China's amazing
growth."

-Donald Tang, Chairman, Bear, Stearns Asia Ltd, and Vice Chairman,
Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc.



"Professor Liaw's book takes you on a quick walk through the major
milestones in China's economic development over the past two
decades. It shows a clear understanding of the environment for
doing business in China and explains hot topics in the marketplace.
This book is simple, easy to read, and yet highly
informative."

-Jesse Wang, Vice Chairman, China Central SAFE Investments Ltd, and
Chairman, China International Capital Corporation Ltd



"Provides a clear map of China's financial system, investment
banking business, and investment opportunities. It should be read
by all who are interested in China."

-Mao-Wei Hung, Dean, College of Management, National Taiwan
University



"Dr. Liaw's book is a comprehensive professional reference work for
those of us involved in the global investment arena. I highly
recommend it."

-Charles P. Menges, Jr., CFA, Principal, Business Global Wealth
Management, a Unit of Alliance Bernstein LP



"China's development has a unique track, including the financial
market. People who want to profit from China should have a clear
view of this market. Dr. Liaw's book, explaining China's market
opening and foreign participation, is the one necessary for them to
read."

-Wei Xing, Director of Rules and Regulations, China Insurance
Regulatory Commission
