BEIJING, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- Chinese regulators have announced the latest version of systemically important banks, consisting of 20 lenders, to boost macro-prudential management, the central bank said Friday.

 

Among them, six are state-owned commercial banks, nine are joint-stock commercial banks, and five are urban commercial banks, according to the list released by the People's Bank of China and the National Financial Regulatory Administration.
