在10日的博鰲亞洲論壇2018年年會開幕式上，國家主席習(xí)近平明確提出，去年年底宣布的放寬銀行、證券、保險行業(yè)外資股比限制的重大措施要確保落地，同時要加大開放力度，加快保險行業(yè)開放進程，放寬外資金融機構(gòu)設(shè)立限制，擴大外資金融機構(gòu)在華業(yè)務(wù)范圍，拓寬中外金融市場合作領(lǐng)域。
習(xí)近平在講話中指出：
這些對外開放重大舉措，我們將盡快使之落地，宜早不宜遲，宜快不宜慢，努力讓開放成果及早惠及中國企業(yè)和人民，及早惠及世界各國企業(yè)和人民。
We have every intention to translate these initiatives of opening-up into reality, sooner rather than later. We want the outcomes of our opening-up efforts to deliver benefits as soon as possible to all enterprises and people in China and around the world.
11日，中國人民銀行行長易綱在“貨幣政策的正常化”分論壇上宣布了12項金融業(yè)對外開放的重大舉措。
預(yù)計到今年6月30日將落實的有六條：
一、取消銀行和金融資產(chǎn)管理公司的外資持股比例限制，內(nèi)外資一視同仁，允許外國銀行在我國境內(nèi)同時設(shè)立分行和支行。
Foreign equity restrictions on banks and financial asset management firms will be canceled, with equal treatment for domestic and foreign-funded institutions. Foreign banks will be allowed to set up branches and subsidiaries at the same time in the country.
二、將證券公司、基金管理公司、期貨公司、人身保險公司的外資持股比例的上限放寬至51%。三年以后，不再設(shè)限。

此外，易綱還宣布，經(jīng)過中英兩國雙方共同的努力，目前滬倫通的準(zhǔn)備工作進展順利，將爭取在2018年年內(nèi)開通滬倫通(launch the Shanghai-London stock connect this year)。
