The China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC), the banking regulator, will unveil the framework and roadmap of capital regulation on commercial banks in due time, CBRC officials said on September 17.

CBRC officials also said the international bank capital regulation reform has limited influence over domestic banks in the short term, but the influence in the long run is more substantial.

Chinese commercial banks have a comparatively high capital adequacy ratio worldwide, according to a survey made by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which said China's banking industry is in a favorable position in the reform.

As of June 2010, Chinese banks' capital adequacy ratio hit 11.1 percent on average, while the core capital adequacy ratio stood at 9 percent and core capital accounted for up to 80 percent of the total capital.
