China's Securities Regulator Discusses Regulating Quantitative Trading and AI Applications on July 20-21

According to Jin10, China's Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) held a series of meetings on July 20-21 with investors, listed companies, industry institutions, and experts to gather feedback on promoting stable and healthy capital market development. Regulating quantitative trading and AI applications, along with strengthening enforcement against market violations, emerged as core discussion topics.

Industry experts noted that while quantitative trading itself is permissible, it must not become an amplifier of market volatility. The shift from "standardized development" to "standardized behavior" in policy language suggests concrete regulatory measures may be forthcoming.
