Publicly listed banks are intensively recruiting Chief Compliance Officers. The compliance governance in the banking industry may be facing profound changes.

According to China Securities Journal, as of March 2, nearly 30 listed banks have issued announcements regarding the appointment of their Chief Compliance Officers. Among them, Agricultural Bank of China, Construction Bank, Bank of China, Lanzhou Bank, and Qing Agricultural Commercial Bank have announced that their Chief Compliance Officers will also serve as the bank's president. Industry insiders believe that the establishment of a Chief Compliance Officer is not only an important measure for banks to respond to regulatory policies, but also promotes a deep restructuring of the banking industry's compliance management system, which is beneficial for banks to transition from "passive regulatory compliance" to "active compliance governance."
