leading specialist on China's financial systems

What is the People's Bank of China thinking? Victor Shih is one of very few people who can shed so light on the decision making process of some of the world's most important people. The Harvard-educated scholar has a profound insight in the inner workings of China's politics, where others barely scratch the surface.
Victor Shih joined Harvard's university in 1997 for a study in Government with a focus on comparative political economy and Chinese politics. From that moment he has developed into a leading academic in his field, with close contacts to China's key policy makers.
In his PhD "Not Quite a miracle: Factional Politics, Inflationary Cycles, and Non-Performing Loans in China", he disseminated China's decision making process, a work he continued in his book "Factions and Finance in China".
Victor Shih has also consulted for the US government and the private sector on risk scenarios and "black swan" events related to China.
His subjects include: China's financial and political systems, real estate markets and risk analysis for China investments.
