How President Xi Jinping Has Charted the Course for Boosting China's Strength in Finance:

Nurturing a Financial Culture with Chinese Characteristics News provided by en.qstheory.cn Nov 03, 2026, 00:50 ET Share this article Share this article BEIJING , Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from en.qstheory.cn: Boosting strength in finance requires us to enhance not only China's hard power but also its soft power. With an outstanding financial culture, we can shape the values that orient the financial sector, create internal incentives and constraints, and provide the moral foundations for the law and supervision. In this regard, President Xi Jinping has stressed the need to operate in an honest and trustworthy way and never cross the line; to prioritize the greater good in the pursuit of interests, rather than placing self-interest above all else; to adopt a steady and prudent approach and resist the urge to recklessly seek quick gains; to uphold fundamental principles while breaking new ground and ensure finance does not become decoupled from the real economy; and to uphold the law, ensure regulatory compliance, and refrain from misconduct. These requirements not only draw on the essence of traditional Chinese culture, but also articulate the philosophy underpinning modern finance.
