As the leading institute in researching capital account regulation issues, IPD has years of experience in publishing papers and hosting conference to advocate for a cautious approach, in particular, for emerging countries.  As the world's second largest economy, China has been facing calls for a capital account liberalization in additon to a rapid internationalization of the currency, Renminbi.

Drawing from its extensive research and a recent publication on this exact matter, IPD joined forces with IWEP and CEGI to host a one-day conference on the topic to discuss the lessons learned from regions such as Latin America, Japan and Eastern Europe and to advocate for exercising caution on the issue of capital account liberalization in the case of China. This one-day conference also benefits from Chinese experts' candid discussion and presentations to ensure a meaningful and analytical academic exchange.

IPD also took the opportunity to unveil the Chinese version of the following report, which has received wide readership within the Chinese academic community.
