We must adhere to the fundamental purpose of providing financial services to the real economy, do a good job in the "five major articles" of finance, coordinate financial openness and security, and accelerate the construction of a modern financial system with Chinese characteristics. We must complete the task of reforming the local financial management system as scheduled, accelerate the formation of a joint effort between the central and local governments, strengthen the daily supervision of local financial institutions, firmly hold the bottom line of preventing systemic financial risks, and use high-quality financial development to support the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation.

We must adhere to goal orientation and problem orientation, anchor the long-term goal of building a strong financial country and firmly hold onto the short-term and medium-term goals of avoiding systemic risks. We must face the risks and hidden dangers in the financial sector, follow the main line of risk prevention, strong supervision, and development promotion, emphasize strategic methods, adhere to seeking truth from facts and adapting to local conditions, and solidly do a good job in key work in the financial sector. At present, we need to coordinate the strict prevention and control of interwoven risks such as real estate risks, local government debt risks, and local small and medium-sized financial institutions, and crack down on illegal financial activities. We need to comprehensively strengthen the supervision of local financial organizations and collaborate to strengthen the supervision of small and medium-sized financial institutions.
