"Chinese Financial Reform: Balancing Growth in China" is a public talk sponsored by the Asia Society that focuses on Chinese economic development. The program will outline the key steps and sequencing for financial reform in China in a way that will safely modernize the monetary regime, strengthen the regulatory and financial stability framework, and move toward a fully market-based system of financial intermediation. The program will be moderated by Adrian Dickson, Global Head, News Product, Thomson Reuters.
