Details

Tim Clissold (Chinese name: 祈立天) is a Western writer on business in China. He is the author of a memoir detailing how he helped the Wall Street trader Jack Perkowski to invest, lose and recover over $400 million in mainland China as the country first opened up to foreign direct investment. His book detailed the numerous ways the fund lost money and the steps it took to recover it. Clissold was president of the foreign-invested ASIMCO Technologies before parting company from Perkowski, who claims never to have read the book that gave him the nickname Mr. China. Time Magazine described Mr China as 'an instant classic.' He has since written two more books, Chinese Rules and Cloud Chamber. The Financial Times Shanghai correspondent wrote of Chinese Rules: 'Read Tim Clissold, the British businessman whose book Mr China is probably the best I've ever come across about China. Now he has written another: it's about what makes China tick - for foreigners who can clearly hear it ticking but can't quite figure out why.' After leaving ASIMCO Technologies, Clissold founded Peony Capital, an orginator of carbon offsets used to finance renewable energy in China. He is a Senior Research Associate at the Cambridge University China Centre at Jesus College and a director of Henderson Far East Income. He undertakes dispute resolution assignments in China, mainly on behalf of foreign investors who have met difficulties there.
