The Graduate School of Business at Stanford University is invested in knowledge creation on the issues unfolding around the world. Each year a conference will be held that focuses on a topical phenomenon that has world-wide relevance. Starting with a foundation of academic research presented by thought leaders on the topic, the conference will then expand to engage business and political figures in a dynamic conversation. Participants will leave with new learnings, new perspectives and new questions to research. 

China’s external capital markets have experienced tremendous growth over the last two decades. Yet in spite of this success, concerns exist about the listing process, the effectiveness of securities regulation, the influence of political forces, and both the transparency and governance practices of Chinese firms. The recent wave of accounting scandals among both domestic and foreign listed Chinese companies highlights the potential weaknesses that exist in China’s capital markets.
