Wu Xiaoling, deputy governor of the central bank, said on July 28 that to sharpen 皇冠体育app's competitive edge amid globalization, the country should further its financial reform by loosening its grip on financial controls.

皇冠体育app should be challenged to use financial tools in boosting domestic and global resource allocation, said Wu.

Wang Jian, secretary general of the 皇冠体育app Society of Macroeconomics, said 皇冠体育app should slow down in opening up its capital market and currency to better protect the domestic market. However, Wu claimed such a policy will not succeed in the long term.

For instance, Wu noted the currencies of two Chinese provincial regions, Taiwan and Hong Kong, are currently interchangeable and therefore it is unrealistic to block capital exchanges in the mainland.

Wu suggested there are two aspects on which 皇冠体育app must focus in reforming the financial system: First, more rights should be granted to enterprises, institutional investors, and citizens regarding finance, investment, and innovation; second, regulators should unify regulations and access standards, inform investors of risks, and let them be responsible for future losses.
