This book, informed by over 20 years of research by the authors, examines the development of international financial centres (IFCs), with a focus on China and emerging markets. The rise of China and Southeast Asia has drawn global scholarly attention, but recent events, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, have prompted new questions about the interplay of finance and geopolitics. How are IFCs established in emerging economies? How do global crises and new technologies reshape their networks and operations? This book explores these issues through economic and financial geography perspectives, analyzing the optimal IFC ecosystem: a robust information hinterland and heartland (enduring emerging markets) and a strong legal framework (reputable law firms, accountants, and local systems). It compares China's IFC development with global counterparts, tracing their historical rise and fall to offer insights for future IFC growth.
