New e-banking rules to
take effect next
month
|
Two new rules for the rising electronic banking
(e-banking) business issued by China's banking watchdog will take
effect on March 1 this year.
The China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) said in Beijing on
Monday that it has just issued the management rules and the security
evaluation guidance on e-banking business in line with international
regulations.
A spokesman with the CBRC said the two new rules will affect the
e-banking business operated by all Chinese banks and all kinds of
financial companies set up in China.
The management rules on e-banking
business are divided into 99 items under nine chapters,
covering procedures for application, risk management, out-sourcing
business, transnational business and the relevant legal obligations.
The security evaluation guidance on
e-banking is divided into 57 items under five chapters,
which are focused on specific security evaluation activities.
The spokesman said the two new rules on e-banking in China will help
enforce government supervision over the e-banking market and improve the
service of the banking sector to meet the rising demand from consumers.
