China' s rise will be long-term punitive for the rest of Asia. Across all aspects of Asian geopolitics and economics, China' s ascendency to regional hegemonic status will result in the decline of its neighbours' political independence, economic dynamism and future growth potential. Any short-term benefits of China' s growth, such as increased trade, will be transitory. The longer-term implications of its emergence as the regional hegemon will be greater economic and financial dependencies and vulnerabilities, the large-scale shift of business activity to within its boundaries and its increasing geopolitical influence across the region. The challenge for China' s neighbours is how to respond to these evolving dynamics, especially as their strategic options are increasingly limited and few of the potential future scenarios are long-term positive. China' s rise, therefore, be Asia' s decline.
William Bratton has 20 years' experience in Asia in both management consultancy and investment banking. He was initially based in Singapore, where he worked as a strategy consultant specialising in the telecom and media sectors. He then joined Deutsche Bank in Hong Kong, where he quickly became a top-ranked equity analyst. He most recently ran HSBC' s Asian equity research department between 2014 and 2019, where he oversaw a significant improvement in product quality and client traction. He has extensive networks across Asia, especially within financial institutions, and has seen first-hand many of the region' s evolving geopolitical, financial and economic dynamics. He was trained as an economic geographer with a PhD from the University of Cambridge and a first-class degree from the London School of Economics. He is studying for his second doctorate at the University of Oxford on the geography of finance.
