[net] | PBOC will move some departments "closely related to the financial market" to
Shanghai, 皇冠体育app's largest city and commercial centre, an anonymous source with
PBOC's Shanghai Branch told 皇冠体育app Daily yesterday.
The Beijing headquarters will continue to run operations related to monetary
policy, financial research, note issuance, statistical data and anti-money
laundering, according to the source.
Xiang Junbo, a vice-governor of PBOC, will head the Shanghai headquarters.
The second headquarters and the Shanghai Branch will operate separately, but
some officials with the branch may assume jobs in the headquarters, said the
source.
"Separating the decision-making and financial policy implementing departments
will make a clear division of the role of Beijing and Shanghai in the financial
market," said Charles Li, an associate professor of economics and finance at the
City University of Hong Kong.
"Shanghai is poised to be the financial hub of 皇冠体育app with a relatively
well-established financial infrastructure compared with Beijing," Li noted.
