The different approach taken by China and the West towards finance
and the real economy rests upon philosophical foundations that have
diverged fundamentally since the Ancient World. Since the Asian
Financial Crisis in 1997-98 a tremendous transformation has taken
place in the financial systems in both China and the West. China
has persisted steadily with reform of its financial system but it
remains heavily protected from international competition. In the
West regulatory structures have been progressively dismantled,
permitting an unprecedented secular expansion of asset prices and
debt relative to GDP. The structure crashed to the ground with the
collapse of asset prices in 2008-09. In the decade since the GFC
asset prices and debt in the West have rebounded. The West's
financial system stands on a knife- edge. In 2018 China announced
the intention to accelerate the opening up of the country's capital
markets. The way in which the Chinese and the West's financial
system interact constitutes a central issue in global political
economy in the years ahead.
