"The book is written in an accessible, charming and literate style. This is particularly rare given its subject matter. The clarity of the writing indicates a real depth of understanding...I believe, in time, this will become a standard reference work that those working in oen aspect of the financial markets in the region will reach more, regularly, to inform themselves about other aspects of finance in their rgion or their field in other parts of the region...Equally, this book will serve finance and economics students admirably, as it is a deeply insightful, thorough and comprehensive treatment...I am a big fan of this work. It was six years in the writing and all the better for it. I commend the authors for their efforts." - Ross Buckley, CIFR King & Wodo Mallesons Professor of International Finance Law, University of New south Wales, Sydney
