Acknowledgements
This book is mainly based on research conducted in Financial Law Institute, Ghent University, where it took shape under the guidance of my Ph.D. promoter Prof. Dr. Hans De Wulf. I would like to express my gratitude to Prof. Hans De Wulf for the guidance and support throughout the whole course of my research. I would also like to thank other members of my guidance committee, Prof. Stefaan Voet from KUL and Prof. Alain François from VUB for their insightful comments on my research. My sincere appreciation also goes to members of the Financial Law Institute for such great atmosphere for academic research. I would also like to acknowledge the funding provided by the China Scholarship Council to financially support my research in Ghent. Last but not least, my deepest gratitude goes to my family, especially to my husband Dr. Tiancheng Jiang who supported and encouraged me during my days in Ghent. The completion of this book would not have been possible without love and support from my family.
