Additionally, the central bank is committed to implementing financial reforms, such as expanding and developing the financial market. It is important to note that the PBOC, owned by the state of the People's Republic of China, operates under the influence of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), with the Committee Secretary, nominated by the Chairman of the State Council, playing a significant role in its management.",
