Report Scope:

-In August 2017 China's central bank the People's Bank of China created a nationwide centralized online payment clearing platform, involving both banks and third-party online payment companies. To set up this platform the central bank signed an agreement with 44 companies, including Alibaba Group Holdings' affiliate Ant Financial, Tencent Holdings, and China UnionPay's affiliate. The central bank has mandated banks and online payment systems such as Alipay and Tenpay to connect to the new platform and route transactions through it as of June 30, 2018. This move will allow the Chinese government to effectively monitor online transactions carried out through both banks and third-party online payment providers, thereby curbing money laundering and other illicit transactions.

-The Chinese credit card market is expected to attract more foreign competitors, as in June 2016 the central bank formally opened its credit card clearing market to foreign companies. The rules issued by the central bank and the China Banking Regulatory Commission require foreign companies to comply with national security and cybersecurity standards, and be locally based. The move, which ends CUP's monopoly, was a result of longstanding demand for international scheme providers-particularly Mastercard and Visa.

-In a bid to boost competition in the credit card market, the central bank relaxed credit card lending rates in April 2016. Effective from January 2017, the new rule allows banks to offer up to a 30% discount on the credit card lending rate. In order to give banks autonomy to set their own terms, the central bank has also decided to eliminate unified rules on banks' interest-free periods and minimum monthly repayments. Prior to the regulation, the lending rate was fixed at 0.05% per day; the interest-free period ran up to 60 days, while the minimum monthly payment was at least 10% of monthly bills. The new rule also allows banks to decide whether and how much to charge card holders for delays in payments.
