BEIJING, Jan. 10 -- Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng met on Wednesday with members of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) International Advisory Council.

He, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, noted that the overall trend of China's economic recovery and long-term improvement remains unchanged.

He said China will continue to deepen the reform and two-way opening-up of its capital market, facilitate cross-border investment and financing, and attract more foreign financial institutions and long-term capital to China.
