Description
Capital Choices analyzes the creation of different SWFs from a comparative political economy perspective, arguing that different state-society structures at the sectoral level are the drivers for SWF variation. Juergen Braunstein focuses on the early formation period of SWFs, a critical but little understood area given the high levels of political sensitivity and lack of transparency that surround SWF creation. Braunstein's novel analytical framework provides practical lessons for the business and finance organizations and policymakers of countries that have created, or are planning to create, SWFs.

Reviews
Dr. Braunstein fills an important niche in the sovereign wealth fund literature by providing a meticulously researched and skillfully executed description of the different domestic and international actors, networks, and forces at work in the development of modern SWFs. This book is an excellent example of the kind of detailed research needed to fully understand the crucial impact of these funds."" - Paul Rose, Ohio State University
