The China Private Equity Risk Management Research Center was officially established in Beijing on October 17.

As a think tank of the national investor education base in Beijing Fund Town, the China Private Equity Risk Management Research Center will conduct risk assessment, early warning, control and other related research to provide both a scientific basis and standards for the regulation, investment, and risk disposal of private equity funds. It will also provide strong support for investor education along with compliance and risk control management of fund managers. Through the use of professional and systematic research and investment education activities, it will promote the formation of a proactive and compliant industrial ecology, prevent and resolve financial risks, protect the legitimate rights and interests of investors, drive the building of the "Two Zones" in Beijing, and advance the scientific, healthy and sustainable development of China's private equity industry.

Private equity plays a major part in the national financial strategy. Preventing and resolving financial risks and averting systematic financial risks is a fundamental responsibility in financial industry. In recent years, China's private equity industry has developed rapidly. As of now, the total scale of private equity funds has exceeded CNY 19 trillion, and the corresponding risk management research must be strengthened urgently. Therefore, it has become particularly urgent to consistently strengthen education for investors by summarizing the occurrence characteristics and disposal experience of risk events in the private equity sector.
