The policy arrangements of financial deepening in rural China.

摘要

Financial deepening has been successfully tested by many countries, which is also an optimal developing track in practice in rural China. Chinese government has implemented a variety of policies to alter the finance environment in rural areas to get to the financial deepening. These policies include making the multiform financial institutions, making a fair legal environment and clarified property rights. Based on the McKinnon-Shaw model, we test whether there exits the financial deepening in rural China to judge the policy efficiency and we find that no proof can demonstrate the financial deepening in rural China, which means policies of the financial deepening, should be improved.
