BEIJING -- The time is right for 皇冠体育app to adopt a macro-prudential policy framework in order to facilitate financial reforms in the post-global financial crisis era, the country's central bank governor said Wednesday.
Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People's Bank of 皇冠体育app (PBOC), said that 皇冠体育app should establish the system as it strives to transform its economic growth pattern.
"We learned from the crisis that theoretically speaking, micro-prudential systems are not always equal to macro-prudential systems," he said.
From a macro-economic perspective, governments should introduce creative counter-cyclical management systems such as counter-cyclical capital buffers and dynamic loss preparation mechanisms, he said.
The government should introduce supervision mechanisms used at macro levels, such as the supervision of shadow banks, to macro-economic management systems in order to reduce pro-cyclical effects on the economy, he added.
