Information about the 60th anniversary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC).

60 years of historical changes "Financial City" has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In the long river of history, 60 years is not long. However, in this short 60 years, it is no exaggeration to describe the changes that have taken place in Chengdu, a financial city.

Open the financial chronicle in Chengdu chronicle, and the historical changes are vivid-

Sixty years ago, when Chengdu was just liberated, the "private banks" left by the former Kuomintang period were cleaned up and rectified. Chengdu only approved five private banks, namely Jianye Bank, Shanghai Bank, Juye City Bank, Hecheng Bank and Siming Bank, to continue their business. Subsequently, public-private cooperation and the formation of new financial institutions began.

Thirty years ago, the three centers of banking, securities and insurance were dominant, and the People's Bank of China was the only state-owned financial institution in China. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, the financial system established under the highly centralized planned economy system can no longer adapt to the development of the market economy. The comprehensive reform of financial organization and system has begun.

Twenty years ago, Chengdu had public-private joint banks 1 branches, insurance companies 1 branches, trust and investment companies 1 branches, urban credit cooperatives and rural credit cooperatives. The outlets of the four major state-owned commercial banks and Bank of Communications began to appear in the streets of Chengdu, and a diversified financial system was initially formed in Chengdu. Without hesitation, it successfully took the first step in the market-oriented reform of Chengdu's financial industry.

Today, in Chengdu, there are 3 1 banking financial institutions, 42 provincial insurance branches and 5 under construction. Among them, there are 7 foreign banks and 8 foreign insurance companies, both of which are the largest in the west. There are three financial institutions in the financial back-office service center 13, with a total investment of 10 billion yuan, the largest in the west.

Sixty years ago, the city's corporate deposits were only 2.52 million yuan, and the savings deposits were 4.03 million yuan.

Today's Chengdu, the balance of various deposits of financial institutions has exceeded 800 billion yuan, which is 654.38+10,000 times that of the early liberation.

Sixty years ago, the city's loan was only about one million.

Today's Chengdu, the balance of various loans of financial institutions has been around 600 billion yuan, 600,000 times that of the early days of liberation.

Whether it is banking, insurance, securities, or Chinese or foreign capital, the number of financial institutions in Chengdu now ranks first in the west.

The turnover of securities business ranks first in western Chengdu; Financial institutions in Chengdu rank first in the western cities in terms of financial business transactions.

The current Chengdu Financial News has been compiled until 2005; The key word of the next issue of financial magazine will be "western financial center"!

Replace "Member" with "Secretary"

On the Modernization Process of Chengdu Bank from the Perspective of Address Change

From the humble urban credit cooperatives to the modern bank building in Xiyu Street, as the only local bank at present, the development track of Chengdu Bank records the little changes in the financial life of Chengdu citizens and the step-by-step growth of Chengdu's local financial industry.

According to the Financial Daily, the predecessor of Chengdu Bank can be traced back to the mid-1990s. At that time, in Chengdu, more than 40 urban credit cooperatives were fragmented, with poor image and inadequate publicity. "Urban credit cooperatives were all high counters at that time, like pawn shops." Feng Qi, director of the Office of the Board of Supervisors of Chengdu Bank, joined Chengdu Credit Union 1992. At that time, she was called a "member" like other colleagues, not a "clerk" like colleagues in other banks such as the establishment of diplomatic relations between workers and peasants.

65438-0993 the State Council identified Chengdu as a "three centers and two hubs" city in Southwest China, including a financial center. This means that after years of development, Chengdu's financial industry has established a solid central position in the southwest. Subsequently, the construction of the western financial center city also started immediately.

In Feng Qi's eyes, with the rapid development of Chengdu's financial industry, urban credit cooperatives will be replaced by more modern banking institutions.

Sure enough, not long after, according to the State Council's spirit of merging urban credit cooperatives and establishing urban cooperative banks, Chengdu set off a new wave of financial reform.

1996 12.30 after nearly a year of preparation, 44 urban credit cooperatives in Chengdu reorganized and established the first urban commercial bank in Sichuan province-"Chengdu Urban Cooperative Bank". Two years later, it was renamed "Chengdu Commercial Bank".

As a result, the operation framework of a modern commercial bank has been initially established, and the local financial industry in Chengdu has also ended the history of urban credit cooperatives, laying a good foundation for the construction of the western financial center.

At that time, Feng Qi was very uneasy in the face of such a change: the possible variables in the future made her uneasy, but the development prospects after the establishment of the bank made her full of yearning for the future. Since then, the word "member" has withdrawn from the historical stage, and Feng Qi and her colleagues, like other "real bank" employees, have put on handsome and professional uniforms and become real "employees".

On June 28th, 2008, 10, Chengdu Commercial Bank held an unveiling ceremony and officially changed its name to Chengdu Bank Co., Ltd., referred to as "Chengdu Bank". This ended the 0/2-year history of local city commercial banks/KLOC and entered the era of "Chengdu Bank" with cross-regional development.

Time flies. Feng Qi and her colleagues left their youth on the road of the development of Chengdu Bank. Chengdu, a financial city, has also entered the track of rapid development and ushered in the most glorious moment in history.

"Chinese capital" to "foreign capital"

Institutional capital inflow

Seeing the accelerated development of western financial centers

One day in 2005, Wu Zhongyun, then a researcher at the Political Research Office of the Municipal Party Committee, received a transfer order. The Chengdu Municipal People's Government set up a new financial service office and transferred it as its director. After receiving the transfer, Wu Zhongyun was very happy. As one of the earliest graduates of Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, he has been engaged in economic policy research for many years, which is a position that can make him exert himself. More importantly, this is the second financial services office set up by the government in China after Shanghai. Wu Zhongyun vaguely felt that the great era of Chengdu's financial industry was coming.

What I saw, heard and experienced later confirmed this feeling of Wu Zhongyun.

2005 is a year for Chengdu's financial industry to link the past with the future. Before this year, Chengdu's financial industry made rapid progress on the basis of reform and opening up. From 1990 to 16 in 2005, Chengdu, as a financial center city in southwest China, attracted the arrival of eight national and regional joint-stock commercial banks, including China Merchants Bank (15, -0.99%). At the same time, a number of foreign banks set up representative offices in Chengdu; Overseas Chinese Bank of Singapore took the lead in setting up branches.

By the end of 2005, the balance of RMB deposits in Chengdu banks had reached 34.5 times of 1990; The loan balance is 2 1.93 times of 1990. After this year, the pace of Chengdu's construction of the western financial center began to accelerate significantly.

In the second year of Wu Zhongyun's tenure in the Finance Office of the municipal government, Chengdu immediately welcomed the first foreign bank after China's entry into WTO-HSBC Chengdu Branch. Subsequently, foreign financial institutions poured into Chengdu. In this position for just three years, Wu Zhongyun has witnessed and participated in six foreign banks entering Chengdu, or upgrading their representative offices to branches, and eight foreign insurance companies coming to Chengdu to set up the first branch in the west.

In recent years, the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have quickly issued a number of policies and documents on further accelerating the construction of the western financial center, creating a good investment platform with unprecedented determination, confidence and service awareness.

This is a magnetic field, attracting capital from all directions. Not only foreign capital, but also domestic joint-stock banks and insurance companies are pouring in. In 2007 alone, Wu Zhongyun witnessed the introduction of two joint-stock banks, hengfeng bank and Zheshang Bank, and the establishment or preparation of three village banks, including Qionglai National Village Bank. Add 12 insurance institutions such as Bohai Property Insurance and BOC Property Insurance.

At the same time, for the development of local financial industry, Chengdu has shown the courage and courage to be the first in the world. Promote the introduction of foreign shareholders, renaming and even listing of Chengdu Bank; Promote the comprehensive reform of Chengdu rural credit cooperatives and unify legal persons; Contributed to the birth of Chengdu Investment Holding Group; Promote the establishment of local insurance companies; Promote rural banks to blossom everywhere; Promote the listing and financing of advantageous enterprises ...

In this step, Chengdu went boldly and calmly.
