Reform of financial sector to continue

CHINA will continue to push forward reform and opening-up in its financial sector this year, the People’s Bank of China said in a report yesterday.

Reforms to the interest rate system, yuan exchange rate management, stock and bond markets, and financial institutions were highlighted in the PBOC’s annual report.

The central bank will continue to liberalize interest rates and give greater freedom to the market.

The foreign exchange market will be opened wider to the world and the yuan’s exchange rate system will be improved, with the currency “basically kept stable around a reasonable and balanced level.”

China will further reform its stock and bond markets to promote direct financing, and improve corporate governance of financial institutions.

The central bank said China’s financial system “generally remained stable in 2015,” thanks to continued reform, robust innovation and more support for the real economy, despite volatility in the global markets.

The country will maintain its proactive fiscal policy and prudent monetary policy this year, with better supervision to prevent systemic risks, said the report.
