From licensed financial institutions to non-licensed financial institutions

The regulatory sandbox was first proposed by the United Kingdom to provide emerging financial technology innovation space. It upholds the concept of flexible supervision, supports the exploration and practice of innovative products by providing a real market space with controllable risks while protecting consumer rights, and discovers and avoids product defects and hidden risks in a timely manner. Li Wei, director of the Central Bank’s Department of Science and Technology, once said that China’s original design of innovative regulatory tools was to standardize and guide fintech innovation. The main body of the institutions entering the box must be a licensed institution. After the relevant products of these institutions are out of the box, they no longer serve as fintech innovation Products are regulated, but included in normal financial supervision.

On December 23, 2019, the Central Bank’s Business Management Department, together with the relevant departments, organized the Beijing Financial Technology Innovation Supervision Pilot Startup Meeting, and Beijing took the lead in carrying out financial technology innovation Supervision pilot. The Chinese version of the “Supervision Sandbox” has officially taken off.
