The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (CBIRC) was an agency of the State Council of the People's Republic of China authorised to[1]

  • Supervise the establishment and ongoing business activities of banking and insurance institutions.
  • Take enforcement actions against regulatory violations.

History[edit]

The CBIRC was established in April 2018 by a merger of China's banking and insurance regulators, namely, the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) and China Insurance Regulatory Commission (CIRC).[2]

It was abolished in March 2023 as part of a plan to overhaul government agencies, being replaced by the National Administration of Financial Regulation.[3]
