The two sides had professional, pragmatic, candid and constructive communication on a range of financial policy topics of mutual interest, including the broader strategy of further deepening comprehensive reforms as discussed at the third plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the central bank said.
The discussions also covered the economic and financial situation, monetary policies, financial stability and regulation, securities and capital markets, cross-border payments and data, international financial governance, financial technology, sustainable finance, as well as anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing.
During the meeting, a group of technical experts presented a report on various topics, including disposal mechanisms for global systemically important banks, operational resilience of financial institutions, climate risk stress testing, and supervision of cross-border financial services, according to the statement.
