• China's Banking Law and the National Treatment of Foreign-Funded Banks

'An excellent book! Wei Wang provides invaluable information on China's GATS/WTO obligations and its banking laws. Importantly, based upon China's economic and political reforms, the book proposes an integrated legal framework to provide a systematic resolution to existing weaknesses in the treatment and approach towards foreign and domestic banks.' James R. Barth, Auburn University and Milken Institute, USA ’This is a timely, thorough assessment of an important aspect of China’s WTO obligations. The analysis ranges from national treatment under the Qing to the 2012 US-PRC WTO dispute over China UnionPay, noting not only when unequal treatment hurts foreign-funded banks vis-à-vis local banks, but also when it helps them.’ Jane K. Winn, University of Washington, USA
