Abstract: This paper investigates the implementation of regionally differentiated macro-prudential policies in China. To assess the relative intensity of the city-level macro-prudential policies over time, we construct a time-varying city-level macro-prudential policy intensity indicator for 70 Chinese cities from 2010-2017. The empirical evidence shows China's macro-prudential toolbox has gradually evolved toward city-level policies tailored to granular local conditions to mitigate risks.
