China to remove business restrictions on foreign banks, brokers: Report
China
will remove business restrictions on foreign banks, brokerages and
fund management firms, a cabinet meeting chaired by premier Li
Keqiang on Wednesday said, according to state television.
China
has stepped up efforts to open its financial sector amid a festering
trade war with the United States, with increased access to its
financial sector among a host of demands from Washington.
The
country caught traders off-guard with a surprise injection into the
financial system via loans to banks, ahead of data on Friday which is
expected to show a further slowdown in the domestic economy.
