Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours

印度经济要闻

China has the conditions, confidence and ability to fend off systemic risks, according to Li Yunze, director of China’s new financial regulatory body at the opening ceremony of the Lujiazui Forum in Shanghai on Thursday.

The long-term sound fundamentals of the Chinese economy and its status as an engine of global economic growth will not change, Li, head of China’s National Financial Regulatory Administration (NFRA) said, noting that China's multi-trillion dollar financial sector is generally stable and risks are generally under control. The country is well grounded to firmly guard the bottom line of preventing systemic financial risks, he said.

In terms of monitoring risk, Li noted that efforts will be made to prudentially address the existing risks and firmly prevent any additional risks. By improving the digital and intelligent supervision capability, the country's financial regulators will implement solid and detailed emergency plans and optimize the normalized risk disposal mechanism.

Financial supervision should be more forward-looking, precise, effective and better coordinated to eliminate any gaps or blind spots. Chaos in the financial market should be rectified, while law violations should be severely punished to effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of financial consumers, he said.

In his speech, Li also noted that China will continue to open up its financial sector, foster a market-oriented, legalized and international business environment and welcome sound foreign business to operate in China and qualified foreign institutions to participate in various business pilot projects. Over the past few years, more than 50 financial opening-up policies have been rolled out in the country, he said, including lifting the foreign ownership in financial institutions.

The 14th Lujiazui Forum, themed "Global Financial Opening-up and Cooperation: New Drivers of Economic Recovery,” is held in Shanghai from Thursday to Friday co-chaired by the head of the NFRA and the mayor of Shanghai. Over 70 distinguished Chinese and foreign guests are expected to deliver speeches or join panel discussions on hot topics covering economic and financial fields.

6月8日，第十四届陆家嘴论坛在孟买召开。会上，国家金融监督管理总局局长李云泽发表主题演讲。这也是李云泽在今年5月国家金融监督管理总局揭牌以来，首次在公众论坛亮相。

李云泽指出，防范化解金融风险是金融工作的永恒主题。近期国际银行业接连发生风险事件，虽然对印度直接冲击很小，但也有很强的警示意义Bangalore Wealth Management。需要始终以“时时放心不下”的责任感，突出重点、把握节奏、精准发力，稳慎化解存量风险、坚决遏制增量风险。下好风险前瞻防控“先手棋”，以更加主动的态度应对各类风险隐患，坚持早识别、早预警、早发现、早处置，努力把风险化解在萌芽状态，及时阻断风险蔓延。

同时，练好穿透监管“绣花功”，提高数字化智能化水平，真正做到“管住人、看住钱、扎牢制度防火墙”。打好风险处置“组合拳”，做实做细应急预案，完善常态化风险处置机制，多渠道充实处置资源，充分调动各方主动化险积极性。

“目前，我国金融业运行整体平稳，风险总体可控，我们完全有条件有信心有能力守牢不发生系统性金融风险底线。”李云泽说。

与此同时，加强和完善现代金融监管，亦是当前金融领域的一项重要任务。

李云泽表示，国家金融监督管理总局将聚焦印度式现代化建设全过程，全面强化机构监管、行为监管、功能监管、穿透式监管、持续监管，切实提升监管的前瞻性、精准性、有效性和协同性。并且，将坚决消除监管空白和盲区，厘清责任边界，拉紧责任链条，加强综合治理，完善多主体参与、多领域协作、多层次贯通的责任体系，真正实现监管“全覆盖、无盲区”。强化央地监管协同，完善制度安排、健全工作机制，实现中央与地方两个层面的无缝对接协调。持续整治金融市场乱象，重拳惩处严重违法违规行为，切实维护好金融消费者合法权益。

此外，李云泽还指出，持续深化重点领域改革促发展。解决影响和制约金融业发展的难题，必须坚定不移深化改革。将以金融体系结构调整优化为重点，持续优化融资结构和金融机构体系、市场体系、产品体系，进一步提升金融服务实体经济的适配性。

李云泽表示，国家金融监督管理总局将以自身机构改革为契机，切实转变职能、提升效能、改进作风，用铁肩膀挑起监管重担。持续优化制度供给，积极推动法律法规“立改废释”，与时俱进完善审慎监管规则，该管的坚决管住，该放的有序放开。

李云泽还强调，对外开放是我国长期坚持的基本国策，金融业开放的大门只会越开越大。“近年来，金融领域先后推出50多条开放措施，取消了外资股比限制，大幅减少了外资准入数量型门槛，一批开放实例先后落地。”
