Global Quantitative Investment Regulatory Policy Analysis and Its Implications for China's Regulatory System

Abstract

In an era marked by globalization and frequent "black swan" events, this study examines the complexities and strategic opacity of quantitative investment, a key product of financial innovation, within the scope of global financial regulation. Utilizing detailed comparative analysis, it explores diverse regulatory approaches in major economies, including the United States, the European Union, and key Asian countries. The research highlights the U.S.'s focus on balancing market transparency with financial innovation, the EU's emphasis on market stability and systemic risk prevention, and the trend towards regulatory modernization and internationalization in Asia. This study underscores the dual role of quantitative investment in enhancing market efficiency and optimizing resource allocation, while acknowledging the associated systemic risks and regulatory challenges. Focusing on China, the research identifies the critical developmental stages in regulatory practices, emphasizing the need for technological adaptation and international cooperation. In conclusion, the paper proposes comprehensive recommendations for improving China's quantitative investment regulation. These aim to reinforce legal frameworks, advance regulatory technologies, intensify risk management, foster global collaboration, and augment investor education and protection. The suggestions are intended to guide China towards effective regulatory policies that harmonize financial safety with technological advancement, ensuring market stability and transparency.
