Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 15 (Reporters Wu Yu and Ren Jun) The People's Bank of China announced on the 15th that it has jointly issued a document in conjunction with the State Administration for Financial Regulation, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange to clarify the statistical recognition standards for the "five major articles" in the field of finance, achieve full statistics coverage, and strive to build a panoramic view of key areas of financial services for the real economy.

To do a good job in five major articles in science and technology finance, green finance, inclusive finance, pension finance, and digital finance, we need high-quality statistical data to support it.

According to reports, the "Overall Statistical System of the "Five Big Articles" of Finance (Trial)" jointly issued by the four departments recently focuses on making unified provisions on the statistical objects and scope, statistical indicators and calibers, statistical recognition standards, data collection, sharing and release, and departmental division of labor in the "Five Big Articles" field of finance.

Industry insiders believe that establishing a "five major articles" of finance with comprehensive coverage and unified standards will integrate the scattered statistics in various fields into an organic whole, which can promote the solution of problems of inconsistent statistical caliber and unclear standards, realize the full sharing and efficient use of data, and provide strong support for the precise implementation of various policy tools.

Relevant persons from the People's Bank of China introduced that in recent years, the People's Bank of China has organized financial institutions to carry out special statistics on loans in green, inclusive, agricultural-related, manufacturing and other fields, and has begun to establish a more systematic and complete statistical system for the "five major articles" of finance, and has worked with relevant financial management departments to promote the refinement and unification of statistical standards.

According to the system, the statistical objects cover the banking industry, securities industry, insurance industry financial institutions and financial infrastructure institutions, and the statistical scope includes a variety of financial instruments and products such as loans, bonds, equity, asset management and debt, funds, insurance, derivatives, etc. There are more than 200 key statistical indicators, and the system stipulates unified and coordinated statistical standards and statistical calibers for each indicator.

Experts believe that clarifying statistical standards is conducive to giving full play to the role of the "baton" of assessment and evaluation work, guiding financial institutions to make precise efforts, optimize the fund supply structure, and effectively strengthening high-quality financial services for major strategies, key areas and weak links.
