Abstract: On 13 September 2020, the Peoples’ Bank of China issued The Trial Measure for the Supervision and Administration of Financial Holding Companies (FHCs), stipulating that firms that control two or more different types of financial institutions may need to establish FHCs. This emerging new type of organization has profound implications; however, serious research on Chinese FHCs is almost none. This study fills in this gap by conducting a comprehensive review on Chinese FHCs from three perspectives. First, from the perspective of macroeconomics and financial markets, this study reviews different types of FHCs and analyses the major source of risks on macroeconomic stability and macroprudential regulation. Second, from the perspective of regulation, based on this regulation document and other literature, this study explores Chinese authorities’ main regulatory objectives. Third, from the perspective of academics, this study also presents a future research agenda regarding Chinese FHCs.
