This PhD-level course provides an in-depth, comparative analysis of financial markets in Asia and other major global economies. The course covers the historical evolution, structural frameworks, regulatory ecosystems, and recent developments shaping the financial landscapes across regions. It critically examines the interplay between monetary policy, foreign exchange regimes, and financial institutions such as banks, hedge funds, and real estate markets. Attention is given to trade dynamics, trade finance, and the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in economic development. Students will gain analytical and practical insights into financial market integration, risk, crisis contagion, and policy coordination in the context of globalization and geopolitical shifts.
