High growth rates, economic deregulation and increasing marketisation have made the Asia the most dynamic region in the world. The book is an investigation into the oil markets of the region, rapidly expanding as world energy trade adjusts to the high rate of energy demand growth in Asia. The key Singapore market, its evolution and structure are examined, together with the rapid growth of derivative trading and other forms of risk management. The impact of derivatives failures such as the Baring's collapse, is considered. A key section of the book considers the impact of market liberalization and structural industrial change taking place throughout Asia, with particular reference to China, India, Japan and Korea. Throughout Asia the link between economic development and regulation is complex, but vital to an understanding of the operation of markets. This book is intended for economists, oil companies and analysts, consultants, academics, bankers.
