Michael Pettis, a professor at Peking University's Guanghua School of Management and a specialist in Chinese financial markets, is the author of, among other books, The Volatility Machine: Emerging Economies and the Threat of Financial Collapse (Oxford University Press, 2001). In a telephone interview from Beijing to DNA Money's Venkatesan Vembu, Pettis explains the risks that rising hot money inflows and an excessively loose monetary policy pose to China's financial system and the management of its macroeconomy. Excerpts:

UK throws gauntlet, students pick it up
The UK has laid down a new law for foreign students wishing to study on the island, but that has not stopped a large number of young Bangaloreans from heading there.
