Financial derivatives markets are an important part of the world economy. These markets can be very beneficial to their traders, but if not properly regulated, also have the potential to expose their economies to substantial risk. Zheng and Gross provide an overview of the derivatives regulatory regimes in the United States and China, discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each system, and offer their thoughts on the wisdom of the two approaches.
