We empirically characterize how China is internationalizing its bond market by staggering the
entry of different types of foreign investors into its domestic market and propose a dynamic
reputation model to explain this strategy. Our framework rationalizes China’s strategy as

our framework to shed light on China’s response to episodes of capital outflows.
