Journal Article
Regulating the Geographies of Market Making
2018
Overview
In this article, I develop a sympathetic critique of cultural economy approaches to market making, arguing that the spatial imaginations deployed in this work remain comparatively limited. Drawing on the emerging dialogue between cultural economy and heterodox political economy approaches to money and finance, the article argues that a focus on regulation provides a valuable way of developing new understandings of the geographies of market making beyond cultural economy’s extant reading of space as context, particularly in the form of the financial trading room. Through an original case study of the making of offshore renminbi markets in London’s financial district, the analysis conceptualizes regulation as both a hitherto overlooked relational component of market making and as a set of practices that coconstitute the territoriality of markets. I demonstrate how regulatory changes made in Beijing and London are important in understanding both the growth and potential limitations of London as an offshore renminbi center. This has significant implications empirically, for the wider project of renminbi internationalization, and theoretically, in terms of understanding the geographies of market making.
