　　Song emphasized that we should take correct attitudes in examining Yichang’s financial development and fully understanding the financial risks we are faced with. We should be resolute in actively adjusting to the new economic situation. We need to be more creative in offering financial products and financial services so as to serve the enterprises and the development of the whole city. All departments at different levels should be able to find out financial risks immediately by establishing the financial risk checking system; we should reduce financial risks in time by perfecting financial risk file management system and the system of joint meetings. We also should establish non-official loan information registration system and promote social credit system in order to improve the financial development environment.
