The China Banking Association first released the report on China's banking social responsibility in May 10th. The report introduces the fulfillment of social responsibility from six aspects, namely, the general situation of the banking industry, the contribution of the banking sector to the economic and social development, and the responsibility of the banking industry to stakeholders.

The report shows that in 2008, the amount of charitable donations made by banking financial institutions amounted to 1 billion 10 million yuan, and the donation projects covered many fields and industries such as education, culture, sports, medical and health, science and technology, environmental protection, national defense and public security.

Among them, more than 100 billion yuan of relief and reconstruction loans were distributed to the areas where rain and snow were frozen, and 118 billion 657 million yuan was reissued to the Wenchuan earthquake stricken area, with a donation of more than 900 million yuan.

In promoting the improvement of people's livelihood, in 2008, banking financial institutions helped the disadvantaged groups to improve their living standards by providing small-scale financial services, supporting low-cost housing construction, and supporting individual entrepreneurship. All year round, they put in 540 billion yuan of housing accumulation fund loans and more than 4 million households.

According to the actual situation of underdeveloped areas and poverty-stricken mountainous areas, the banking financial institutions in 2008 targeted credit support to ensure the smooth implementation of poverty alleviation projects such as infrastructure construction, drinking water projects, basic education and planting and raising. Some state-owned commercial banks also launched targeted poverty alleviation according to the plan of the poverty alleviation Office of the State Council.

Among them, 19 billion 340 million yuan was granted to national student loans, covering most of the institutions of higher learning in China, and more than 2 million students were received.

Yang Zaiping, vice chairman of the banking association, said that in 2008, the Banking Association issued the guidelines on corporate social responsibility for financial institutions in China's banking sector, and put forward suggestions on the management mechanism and system of corporate social responsibility for banking financial institutions.

At present, major commercial banks have released social responsibility reports, and have made important progress in promoting public supervision.
