Wei Christianson
Wei Christianson (August 21, 1956 – ) is the CEO and Managing Director of Morgan Stanley in China.
Ms. Christianson applied and was accepted to Amherst as its first student from mainland China, and she continued on to Columbia Law School.
After Ms. Christianson moved to Hong Kong, she attained a position drafting the regulatory structure that would enable the first batch of People's Republic of China companies to be listed outside China — a unique job that helped pave the way for her investment banking career.
In the years since, Ms. Christianson has masterminded major initial public offerings including Sinopec, China Life, and SMIC, and oversaw the $4.2 billion acquisition of Gas Khazakstan by CNPC, which was the largest cross-border M&A deal ever undertaken in China at that time.[1]|accessdate=February 27, 2011}}</ref>
