The Chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) (Chinese: 中国证券监督管理委员会主席) is the highest-ranking official in the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the principal regulator of the securities and futures markets in the People's Republic of China.
Appointed by the State Council of China, the Chairman holds ministerial rank and is responsible for formulating and enforcing regulations, supervising securities exchanges, protecting investor interests, and maintaining market order and transparency in China’s rapidly evolving financial sector.
The chairman is the public face of China's securities regulation, and plays a key role in steering capital market reforms, managing systemic risk, and aligning financial development with broader state economic goals. The position is considered one of the most influential in China's financial bureaucracy, often held by technocrats with extensive experience in economics, finance, or Party governance.
