It is publicly recognized that “Quality infrastructure plays a critical role in achieving sustainable development. It contributes to economic growth and competiveness, fosters a diversified and deep productive sector, provides greater access to fundamental services that improve quality of life and promote social equality, and bolsters national and regional integration”(IDFC, 2015). However, there existed a substantial gap between supply and demand of infrastructure services in the Yongzhong Wang is a deputy director and senior fellow at developing world. Furthermore, rapid per capita income increases in many emerging countries will amplify the International Investment scale and pace of infrastructure demand. According to a predict of OECD, the infrastructure investment needs Department, Institute of World across land transport, telecommunications, electricity and water and sanitation sectors could amount to an Economics and Politics (IWEP), estimated USD 53 trillion through 2030.

  • China's Banking System: Issues for Congress
    China’s Banking System: Issues for Congress Michael F. Martin Specialist in Asian Affairs February 20, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42380 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress China’s Banking System: Issues for Congress Summary China’s banking system has been gradually transformed from a centralized, government-owned and government-controlled provider of loans into an increasingly competitive market in which different types of banks, including several U.S. banks, strive to provide a variety of financial services. Only three banks in China remain fully government-owned; most banks have been transformed into mixed ownership entities in which the central or local government may or may not be a major equity holder in the bank. The main goal of China’s financial reforms has been to make its banks more commercially driven in their operations. However, China’s central government continues to wield significant influence over the operations of many Chinese banks, primarily through the activities of the People’s Bank of China (PBOC), the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC), and the Ministry of Finance (MOF). In addition, local government officials often attempt to influence the operations of Chinese banks. Despite the financial reforms, allegations of various forms of unfair or inappropriate competition have been leveled against China’s current banking system. Some observers maintain that China’s banks remain under government-control, and that the government is using the banks to provide inappropriate subsidies and assistance to selected Chinese companies. Others claim that Chinese banks are being afforded preferential treatment by the Chinese government, given them an unfair competitive advantage over foreign banks trying to enter China’s financial markets.
