The intentions of the BoC were made clear last year in October when they launched a certification program for Fintech products. The system was set to cover all possible angles on Chinese payment systems including point-of-sale mobile terminals, embedded application software, user front-end software, and security carriers and chips.

According to the outline from the Bank, China ought to have come up with framework dubbed ‘the four beams and eight pillars’ of their Fintech Development.
