Additional text

'Fintech is the new frontier of finance, and China is at the frontier of Fintech. Robin Huang provides a comprehensive account of how Fintech in China has been regulated, and of how regulation has shaped its development. There have been successes (mobile payments) and, in relative terms, failures (online lending). Professor Huang's account will be essential reading for all those seeking to understand the future of finance in and beyond China.' Simon F. Deakin, Professor of Law, University of Cambridge
