Features: This book focuses on the development trends of global banking, combining historical evolution with theoretical analysis, normative analysis with empirical testing. It comprehensively explores the background, causes, and characteristics of the five waves of global corporate (bank) mergers since the 20th century, the development trajectory and constraints of bank mergers in China, the micro-mechanisms of bank mergers, manager behavior, shareholder behavior, and bank model selection under asymmetric information, as well as government behavior in bank mergers. The book also examines the costs and benefits of bank mergers, the origins, determinants, and risk management of bank merger risks, and the management integration of bank mergers. Based on an analysis and judgment of the trends in international banking and the position of Chinese banking, it proposes development strategies for bank mergers in Chinese banking within the context of economic and financial globalization, global industrial restructuring, and the framework of WTO agreements.
