"The authorities have recently announced that they would allow the participation of foreigners into the financial sector and they will do this slowly over time. And we think that this will help increase competition and increase efficiency. It will also help in pricing risks more accurately. So I think these are developments in the right direction."

China has made great achievements in the financial sector, said an official with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Ratna Sahay, deputy director of the Monetary and Capital Markets Department of IMF, made the remarks in an exclusive interview with the China Global Television Network (CGTN) in Washington D.C. on Wednesday after IMF released an assessment report on China's financial sector.
Sahay said China's financial system has sustained the country's fast economic growth and helped reduce poverty.
"The Chinese financial system has been very supportive of the high growth rates in China and it has also helped in reducing poverty rates, bringing it down to a very low level," said Sahay.
Sahay said China's financial reform is going on in the right direction.

And we think that this will help increase competition and increase efficiency. It will also help in pricing risks more accurately. So I think these are developments in the right direction," said Sahay.
IMF recognized the fast development of China's financial market amid the steady economic growth and referred to it as a large, dynamic and interconnected financial system in the report.
IMF began to conduct financial sector assessment of 29 economies with systemically important financial sectors on a mandatory basis in 1999. It first assessed China's financial sector in 2011, and the IMF assessment report on China released on Wednesday was the second one.
