The U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission is holding a hearing next Thursday, January 23, on "China's Quest for Capital: Motivations, Methods, and Implications" starting at 9:15AM in Dirksen Senate Office Building, Room 419.
The hearing will examine the internal dynamics of China's financial system; China's increasingly rapid integration into global financial markets; and the risks this poses to U.S. investors and savers.
The first panel examines China's overall capital requirements and systemic challenges to raising new capital. The second panel identifies and evaluates methods different actors in the Chinese economy use to raise capital and access financing. The third panel is designed to assess the exposure of U.S. investors to the growing integration of Chinese securities into global capital markets, with a particular emphasis on index inclusions and Chinese companies' engagement with U.S. equities markets.
