Upcoming Meeting Expected to Sidestep Leadership Changes

(Beijing) – In a meeting next week that will set the tone for major financial reforms in the coming year, analysts expect policymakers to remain muted on top leadership changes which could impact the course of policies.

Scheduled for January 6, the two-day conference will consider proposed policy amendments to improve the country's financial regulatory environment. Sources close to the conference, who declined to be named, told Caixin that opposition remains strong to establishing a consolidated regulatory body for supervising and managing state-owned assets of financial institutions.
