China hikes bank reserve
ratio to cool investment
China
Daily, April 29, 2007 - China's central bank Sunday raised the amount
of money banks must set aside in reserves, reducing the money
available for lending, in the latest move to rein in the investment
boom. "The increase is aimed at stepping up liquidity management of
the banking system and to guide a reasonable growth of credit," said
the statement. That marked the seventh hike in less than a year in
addition to three interest rate increases as regulators try to prevent
the economy from overheating. China's economy surged 11.1 percent in
the first quarter of this year after growing 10.7 percent in 2006, as

Regulations
for overseas stock exchanges' agencies
Xinhua
Jan. 14, 2006 - China will not approve the establishment of overseas
bourses' agencies before regulations on the management of the business are
made, a senior securities regulatory official said Saturday. The country
is mulling over measures to regulate overseas bourses' agencies in the
country, Tu Guangshao, vice chairman of the China Securities Regulatory
Commission (CSRC) said. Applications of overseas stock exchanges to set
agencies in China will be examined and approved only after the regulations
come out, said Tu, without elaboration. Earlier reports said that China
has granted applications of the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq
Stock Market. Stock exchanges from the United States, Britain, Singapore
and the Republic of Korea have launched a series of promotions in China
over recent years, encouraging local enterprises to go public there.
However, analysts worry that overseas listing of domestic companies,
especially those report outstanding performance and with high-growth
potentials, will slower the growth of China's capital market.
