【正确答案】正确答案： Deepening the financial reform in China will offer new opportunities to facilitate cooperation between foreign banks and the Chinese banks. The China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) encourages foreign banks to acquire equity in Chinese banks. This benefits both foreign banks in terms of business, customer and market, and Chinese banks in terms of introduction of advanced experience and practice in corporate governance, internal control, risk management and operation concept. Qualified strategic investors from abroad are welcome to participate, on a voluntary and commercial basis, in the reorganization and restructuring of Chinese financial institutions as an important measure to deepen the financial reform. With the approval of the State Council, the CBRC decides to increase the equity share of a single foreign institution to 20 percent from the previous 15 percent. As long as the equity share of the total foreign investment in a financial institution is lower than 25 percent, the nature and business scope of the institution with foreign equity remain unchanged. With the approval of the State Council, so far five joint-equity banks or city commercial banks are authorized to sell equity to foreign investors, although the maximum equity share of a single foreign investor is limited to 15 percent. The introduction of foreign investment plays a positive role in improving the equity structure of Chinese financial institutions, introduction of advanced banking management model, and bringing our banking activities in line with the international practice. I give you two operation concept examples. Bank of Shanghai (BOS): After selling 18 percent of its equity to International Financial Corp. , the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corp. Ltd. , and the Hong Kong Shanghai Commercial Bank, the BOS has made great progress in improving corporate governance, introducing advanced operation and management concept and expertise and tightening internal control. This is attributed to the technical assistance and appointment of resident directors from the three foreign investors. Consequently, the BOS is among the first city commercial banks to adopt the annual disclosure systems for reporting business management. Nanjing Commercial Bank (NCB): After acquiring 15 percent of the NCB's equity share and becoming its third largest shareholder, International Financial Corp. has given NCB a lot of advice on corporate governance, operation management system, portfolio structure, accounting system, etc. These are being implemented. This plays an important role in helping NCB raise its level of business management.
