Abstract

This chapter is a description and explanation of the methods how the empirical study was conducted in this research. The analysis presented in this book draws on empirical material from two main sources: documents and face-to-face interviews. In this research, data about the development of trust business is collected from written documents, while the data for the relationship between financial institutions and citizens is gathered from qualitative research (namely, face-to-face interviews). Following a brief introduction of empirical research questions and empirical research methods, this Chapter spends one section to explain the ways in which the data of trust business in China is collected, and spends another section to explain the method to collect data on mutual trust between potential investors and financial institutions in China. This Chapter ends with several important selected results of this empirical research, and an explanation on the limitations of this empirical research.
