This is a highly recommended resource for business students, policy-makers, professionals, and industry practitioners." --Stephen Riady, OUE Limited

"These Handbooks of Asian Finance offer an excellent overview of the problems and issues faced by regulators and financial institutions. They provide sufficiently robust analysis and useful practical insights over a wide range of subjects and should be of immense value to those who are interested in Asian finance especially in the East Asian economies." --Lim Chee Onn, Singbridge Pte Ltd

"Following the Asian financial crisis (1997-98), the Asian economies and financial sectors underwent a far-reaching restructuring and transformation. The much-needed Handbooks of Asian Finance are an attempt to deal with them in an in-depth manner. They cover all aspects of Asian financial markets, institutions and pan-Asian financial issues in a lucid and comprehensive way. I have no qualms in recommending them to interested undergraduate and graduate students." --Dilip K. Das, Woosong University

Each section is written by highly qualified experts in their respective fields." --Amine Tarazi, Université de Limoges

"The Handbooks of Asian Finance provide a clear and careful analysis of the issues concerning financial markets in Asia. They consitute a 'must' for practitionners, advanced students, and academic specialists in this field. Many thanks to the editors for this great job." --Bertrand Candelon, Maastricht University

Participants in Asian financial markets have witnessed the unprecedented growth and sophistication of their investments since the 1997 crisis. Handbook of Asian Finance: REITs, Trading, and Fund Performance analyzes the forces behind these growth rates. Insights into banking, fund performance, and the effects of trading technologies for practitioners to tax evasion, market manipulation, and corporate governance issues are all here, presented by expert scholars. Offering broader and deeper coverage than other handbooks, the Handbook of Asian Finance: REITs, Trading, and Fund Performance explains what is going on in Asia today.
