People's Bank of China Calls Upon Fintech for Transaction Monitoring
The People’s Bank of China wants fintech firms to pitch in on a government-controlled monitoring system to watch over financial transactions on the internet. Sun Gouofeng, director of general of the Bank’s research institute says it is unfair for taxpayers’ money to cover the costs arising from heightened regulation on fintech businesses. Making remarks at a conference, Gouofeng wants more of the major players in fintech to take the responsibility of funding its regulation.
