Summary · why it matters

The China Securities Regulatory Commission has officially issued the 2026 securities company classification evaluation results. Among the 106 participating entities, 53 were rated Category A, 42 Category B, and 11 Category C, with 14 brokerages achieving the AA rating. This year's evaluation marks the second comprehensive assessment under the capital market's '1+N' policy framework. The proportions of Category A, B, and C companies stand at 50%, 40%, and 10% respectively, with the distribution across tiers remaining stable. The evaluation system covers four major areas: risk management capability, ongoing compliance status, business development, and special initiatives. The special indicators focus on functional performance, professional competence, compliance bottom lines, and industry ecosystem. Notably, industry mergers and acquisitions have been included for the first time as a special bonus item, guiding brokerages to become better and stronger through market-oriented means. This echoes the current wave of industry consolidation, such as CICC's share swap merger with Dongxing Securities and Cinda Securities, and the release of integration effects from Guotai Haitong. On the compliance front, full coverage and strict supervision have been further strengthened, with stricter point deductions for employee misconduct. At the same time, indicators such as cultural development and prudent compensation continue to be emphasized, promoting high-quality development in the industry.
