(MENAFN- Asia Times) The People's Bank of China said in its 2017 Q4 monetary policy report that it will continue to promote the introduction of regulatory rules for financial holding companies, aiming to catch up on "the last piece of the puzzle" of overall financial supervision, reported.
It will clarify regulatory requirements concerning market access, corporate governance, capital adequacy and related party transactions.
