More than 400 delegates from 247 companies joined FinanceAsia's 7th annual Borrowers & Investors forum for North Asia at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Hong Kong on March 2.
Delegates heard speeches and panel discussions on a range of issues including developments in the Asian bond markets, the impact of capital account liberalisation in China and the effect of the renminbi's new status as a reserve currency on the nation's debt market.
Expert speakers predicted that China's bond market buildout could kill QFII and CNH, while others pointed to the challenges facing investors as as a growing number of Chinese companies default on their debts.
Speakers included Julian Trott of Goldman Sachs, Tun Lin of Hony Capital and Louis Kuijs, head of Asia economics at Oxford Economics.
