China's top financial regulators, in collaboration with the Guangdong provincial government, have recently issued the "Guidelines on Financial Support for Guangzhou Nansha to Deepen Comprehensive Cooperation with Hong Kong and Macao."This comprehensive policy package aims to strengthen Nansha's strategic role in positioning the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) as a global center for innovation and openness.
Jointly issued by the People's Bank of China, the National Financial Regulatory Administration, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and the Guangdong Provincial Government, the policy package outlines 30 targeted measures across six key areas. These include enhancing financial services for innovation and entrepreneurship, supporting social welfare initiatives, developing specialized financial sectors, deepening financial market connectivity within the GBA, advancing cross-border financial collaboration, and improving regulatory efficiency.
To accelerate implementation, Nansha will host a high-level forum and investment promotion conference in late May. The event will feature in-depth policy briefings, roundtable discussions with leading domestic and international financial institutions, enterprises, and industry associations, and focused dialogues on aligning reforms with national economic priorities and local industry development.
