In order to implement the spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress, apply the people-centered development philosophy and accelerate the building of a law-based society, the Shanghai Financial Court held the Investor Education Base Unveiling and Investor Judicial Protection Platform Launch Ceremony on November 17, to further extend judicial services, improve the investor protection mechanism, strengthen the investor education, and promote the high-quality development of the capital market. Mao Ronghua, Vice President of the Shanghai High People’s Court, Cheng Hehong, Director of CSRC Shanghai Securities Regulatory Bureau, Xia Jianting, Chairman of China Securities Investor Services Center, Zhao Hong, President of the Shanghai Financial Court, and Ji Nuo, President of Shanghai Bar Association attended the ceremony. Lin Xiaonie, Vice President of the Shanghai Financial Court, hosted the ceremony.
The Investor Education Base of the Shanghai Financial Court (“Investor Education Base”) is the first investor education base established in the national court system. Adhering to the building concept of “Justice for the People and Integration of Trials and Education”, the Investor Education Base highlights judicial characteristics, focuses on typical cases, popularizes general knowledge on law and reveals investment risks to provide normalized and pro bono educational services for small and medium-sized investors both in online and offline ways. In combination with the characteristics of the Court’s work, the Investor Education Base creates a systematic, intelligent and scenario-based investor education platform with investor education lessons, such as judges’ lectures and court hearings, and litigation services, so as to enable the securities and futures investors to “have some thinking, thoughts and gains from the learning” and effectively play the role of protecting investors’ rights and interests.
Mao Ronghua, Cheng Hehong, Xia Jianting and Zhao Hong jointly unveiled the Investor Education Base of Shanghai Financial Court and initiated the launch of the Investor Judicial Protection Platform.
At the ceremony, the Shanghai Financial Court also launched the Investor Judicial Protection Platform (“the Platform”). The Platform, equipped by the judicial technologies and independently developed by the Shanghai Financial Court, is the first whole-process online litigation service and investor education platform in China. On the basis of summarizing the trial experience of securities cases and the innovative litigation mechanisms such as model judgment mechanism and representative action mechanism, the platform comprehensively uses information technologies like intelligent identification, automatic verification, big data and cloud computing to perform two core functions, namely “Online Litigation Services” and “Investor Education” and to provide investors with more efficient litigation services, more transparent right protection processes and more vivid law education.
The basic situation of the Platform was introduced and the main functions were demonstrated at the ceremony.
Nearly 50 people, including personnel from the court system, financial regulatory agencies, financial infrastructures, investor protection institution and relevant industry associations as well as deputies to the Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress, members of the CPPCC Shanghai Committee and journalists from news media attended the ceremony.
