Meet the new bankers
An interesting rundown of China’s new economic team:
Wang Qishan, 64, former financial supremo, also on the PBSC. Now China’s chief corruption-buster, he has led a clampdown on trading abuses in the bond market.
…
Zhou Xiaochuan (pictured), 65, governor of the People’s Bank of China, the central bank. Oversees one of the world’s biggest money supplies, but lacks political independence. Earned his stripes as a banking reformer in the 1990s but, after last week’s mess, may wish he had retired as planned in March.
