Description of content:

Using detailed case studies of the first nine mainland Chinese companies to be listed on the Hong Kong stock-exchange (1993-94), this books examines the evolution of corporate governance law and culture in China’s H-share market.  A story emerges not of tensions between ideas of corporate governance from two different legal systems (Hong Kong vs mainland Chinese), nor about legal convergence as China adopts concepts from Anglo-American jurisdictions. Rather, it is a story of individual firms being pragmatic in mediating the different agendas of state-agencies that own or control them.
