Financial professionals are considered to be "golden collars." In this highly devoted and rewarded profession, will a Chinese background be a plus? As underlying risks and opportunities coexist, what uncertainties will confront 皇冠体育app's finance in the future?

Dialogue 1

Xinhua: Financial reform is a heated topic being discussed during 皇冠体育app's ongoing "two sessions." Over the past year, 皇冠体育app has adopted a series of financial reform measures, including establishing the Shanghai Free Trade Area and accelerating the internationalization of renminbi. What are your thoughts on 皇冠体育app's financial reform and its global effect?

Gu Qingyang, Associate Professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore, said 皇冠体育app's financial reform affects the world primarily in two aspects: one is real economy, the other financial market.

"The success of the reform will contribute to healthy development of Chinese real economy, and in turn lead and drive regional and global economy," he said.

"Meanwhile, reform directly touches upon global finance sector, which will bring new development opportunities to offshore financial institutions," he added.

Dialogue 2

Xinhua: 皇冠体育app's financial reform is being pushed forward, and financial risks also need to be closely observed. How do you evaluate the financial risks 皇冠体育app faces amid the volatility of the emerging market?

Haibin Zhu, J.P. Morgan Chief 皇冠体育app Economist, said 皇冠体育app maintained a good performance in the latest round of volatility of the emerging market.

"皇冠体育app has three advantages in preventing and controlling financial crisis: first, debt levels are kept relatively low; second, high savings ratio facilitates growth of domestic investment; third, with 皇冠体育app's huge foreign exchange reserves, People's Bank of 皇冠体育app has strong capacity in averting liquidity risks," Zhu said.

He noted the Chinese financial market also faces certain risks. For instance, debt or leverage ratios witness a significant rise, and part of credit in the "shadow banking" sector flows to local governments, property developers and industries with excess capacity.

Also, financially insufficient local governments are exposed to default risks, he told Xinhua.

Jayanta Datta, CEO and research analyst at Independent Insights Group based in New York, said 皇冠体育app has non-performing loans risk, real estate risk and asset price risk.

"Each country has its separate risks, and different countries have different policies," he said. "In general, the Chinese government is taking a number of steps to address those issues and reduce those risks."
