The National Financial Regulatory Administration published the draft amendments to the PRC Insurance Law for public comment, proposing to bring insurer shareholders and ultimate controllers within the regulator’s scope; strengthen qualification reviews of major shareholders and ultimate controllers and tighten market entry; codify shareholders’ capital contribution, related‑party transaction reporting and information‑disclosure obligations; prohibit nominee shareholdings and improper interference in company management; and introduce targeted compulsory supervisory measures and specific penalties to increase control over shareholders and ultimate controllers.
