Qian has been Professor of Finance and Executive
Dean at the Fanhai International School of Finance (FISF), Fudan University
since the school was founded in June 2017. He was
elected to the Standing Committee of the Chinese People’s Political
Consultative Conference, Shanghai Committee, in January 2023. Prior to

programs at the Shanghai Advanced Institute of Finance, Shanghai Jiao Tong
University; he was also the Deputy Director of China Academy of Financial

Professor
Qian’s research interests span many areas of corporate finance, financial
institutions, and capital markets. His research papers have been published in
top academic journals including the Journal of Finance, Review of
Financial Studies, Journal of International Economics, and Management
Science. One of his best-known papers, entitled “Law, finance, and economic
growth in China,” published in the Journal of Financial Economics (JFE)
in 2005, won an “All-Star” paper award based on its large number of citations (as
of March 2021, the average citation per year by journal articles since
publication is 60.3, ranked 14th among all the papers published by the JFE).
In the paper, he and his coauthors explained how China has achieved its
impressive economic growth without strong formal legal institutions or an
efficient, ‘standard’ financial system that includes a stock market and a
banking sector. This paper has led to a large and growing number of studies
examining the role of alternative (non-market, non-bank) financing channels and
governance mechanisms in promoting economic growth in China and other emerging markets.
He recently published a book entitled The Power of China’s Financial System,
and has contributed book chapters on developing financial systems in China and
other emerging markets.

Board of European Journal of Finance, an Associate Editor of Frontiers of Economics in China, and was on the editorial board of Review of Finance. He is a Senior Fellow of the Asian Bureau of Finance and
Economic Research, and a Research Fellow at the Financial Institutions
Center of the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. He was also one of
the academic advisors for The Chinese Finance Association, the largest

visiting, special-term or guest professor at MIT’s Sloan School of Management, the
