Features: In recent years, financial dictionaries that have appeared in China's book market often interpret many terms from the perspective of a Chinese person, which differs significantly from international common practices. Some concepts of certain terms have been phased out, while some newly emerging terms have not been included. All these have caused certain confusion alongside the development of concepts and vocabulary. This is mainly due to the fact that some terms in China have established conventional concepts, but both their connotations and extensions differ greatly internationally. This cannot be said to be without hindering China's alignment with international standards. In response to these issues, we have compiled this book, aiming to eliminate erroneous or confusing concepts, provide new terms and relevant terminology with their definitions, so as to adapt to the new situation following China's entry into the WTO, enabling China's financial industry to align more quickly and effectively with the international financial industry. This dictionary is arranged in alphabetical order of English letters and includes over 4,000 terms. Each entry has a detailed Chinese definition. Since the international financial system is basically based on the financial systems of the United States and the United Kingdom, the definitions in this dictionary are also primarily based on this system, with a particular focus on the financial center of the United States—Wall Street.
