Praise for Due Diligence in China
"A number of highly publicised frauds at Chinese companies listed in Western markets have raised questions about the approach to diligence. In Due Diligence in China: Beyond the Checklists, Kwek Ping Yong addresses this uncertainty, using real case studies to bring the diligence process in China to life. Yong highlights where standard diligence processes should be augmented for China and alerts us to potential oversight issues."
—Dominic Barton, Managing Director, McKinsey & Co.
"The Chinese economic landscape is littered with the remains of good ideas that were too casually executed. Due diligence may well be the single most important decision that an organization can make regarding the China market. Kwek Ping's experience and familiarity with doing business in China makes this book a comprehensive source of guidance on how to be better prepared in entering the world's most complex marketplace."
—Bill Fischer, Professor, IMD; former Executive President and Dean, China Europe International Business School (CEIBS); coauthor, Reinventing Giants
"Comprehensive and focused, Due Diligence in China is a truly useful guide on due diligence and extends the knowledge base of the subject under the business landscape of China.
"Kwek Ping has a deep technical understanding based on years of private equity investment experience in China across various industries and companies. The book presents a framework that integrates research and analysis. It covers the scope of problems and issues that one will face in the process and provides practical ideas on how to resolve them, complete with implementation guidelines, checklists, summary models as well as case studies.

A must-read for anyone thinking of partnering in China as buyer or investor."
