0 Introduction
Economists consider the role of the financial system as substantial and fundamental in the
economic system. The financial system has the function of effectively facilitating the
implementation and allocating economic resources. But in some cases, the financial system may
not be able to be well adjusted to the rapidly changing financial environment (ref). As a result,
there have been reforms and in the wake of the global financial crisis, which usually arises from
shocks in the financial market. When it comes to the regulation of the financial sector, regulators
have raised increasing concerns of the banking system given the situation where global banking
activities change rapidly. The regulation of the financial sector is also aimed to improve the
stability and efficiency of the financial system in line with the Basel Committee regulation with
regard to banking supervisions. However, there have been accusations as regulatory systems
cannot effectively deal with the rising housing prices and credit expansion. As a matter of fact,
** (ref) finds out that regulations sometimes provide little check of the decisions and actions
taken by the financial sectors which merely aim to maximize profits. This generates negative
impacts on economic operations, so effective regulations for financial sectors are necessarily
needed.
This paper first presents a critical assessment and evaluation of the need for regulating the
financial sectors by first identifying the role of the financial sector and secondly assessing the
necessity and importance of regulating financial sectors. Then it comes to the discussion of bank
regulation mechanism in China.
