Company characteristics of financial company

1, the business scope is extensive, but is limited by the enterprise group. Financial company is a financial institution within the enterprise group. Its business scope is limited to the internal group, mainly for the financial services provided by the member enterprises in the enterprise group. The business of financial company includes general banking business such as deposit, loan, settlement, guarantee and agency. It can also be approved by the people's Bank of China to carry out securities, trust and investment business.

2, the fund comes from the group company, is used for the group company, has strong dependence to the group company. There are two main sources of financing for financial companies: one is capital invested by members of a group company and a group company, the other two is the deposit of a member company in a financial company. The funds of the finance company are mainly used to provide financial support for the members of the group company, and a small amount is used for securities investment which is not related to the leading industry of the group company. Because the source and application of financial companies are limited to the internal group companies, financial companies have strong dependence on the group companies, and their development is related to the development of their group companies.

3, accept the dual supervision of the enterprise group and the people's Bank. Financial company is a financial institution within the enterprise group. Its shareholders are mostly members of the group company, so its business activities are bound to be supervised by the group companies. At the same time, a financial company is engaged in financial business, and its business activities must be subject to the supervision of the people's Bank of China.

4, adhere to the principle of combining service with efficiency and giving priority to services. As an independent corporate entity, financial companies have their own economic interests. But because financial companies are internal organizations of enterprises groups, and most of the member companies are financial company shareholders, financial companies should generally deal with the relationship between services and benefits in the operation, and strive to maximize the profits of financial companies in the premise of providing good financial services for members of the group companies.
