Preface:

    China Financial Supervision and Regulation Report: 2013 (hereafter the Report 2013), as the annual report from Research Center for Financial Laws and Regulations (RCFLR), tries to reflect the current status, development and reformation of China's financial supervision and regulation in a systematic, comprehensive, persistent and authoritative manner. With the philosophy of "factually recording, objectively reviewing, and comprehensive analyzing", we hope this report may provide reliable and useful references for financial institutes, academic researchers, and regulatory authority.

    The Report 2013 consists of three parts as General Reports, Sub-reports, and Special Topics. The first of the two general reports is Financial Regulation Reform in the 12th Five-Year Plan Period: Background, Problems, and Development, which discusses the perspective of China’s financial regulation and supervision system in the Five-Year Plan Period based on a review of its evolution path. The second general report is China’s Financial Supervision and Regulation: Developments in 2012, which makes a survey of the main reform and policy issues of China’s financial supervision and regulation in 2012 and gives an outlook of 2013. Sub-reports provide the details of development in the regulation of banking, securities, insurance, and foreign exchange administration. Special Topics deliver deeper analysis on some important issues in China's financial supervision and regulation, including liquidity regulation in banking sector, IPO system, regulating trust industry, macro prudential policy, and credit rating in micro financial institutes. We also include a systematic survey of the financial regulation systems in the world and discuss their implication for China's development in this area.
