兰州安宁神舟村镇银行 (Lanzhou Anning Shenzhou Village Bank)
Gansu, China
The People's Bank of China's Gansu branch issued a regulatory warning and fine against Lanzhou Anning Shenzhou Village Bank for violations of account management rules and financial technology management regulations. The penalty was disclosed via the branch's administrative punishment information table in July 2026. The enforcement action falls within a broader wave of Chinese regulatory penalties targeting fintech risk-control failures across banks of all sizes.
State-owned banks, joint-stock banks, rural commercial banks, and village banks have all faced penalties for technology compliance gaps in 2026. Regulators have focused on areas including information system changes, data security, credit reporting, account management, and third-party cooperation. Penalties have increasingly targeted individual executives, not just institutions, reflecting a push to hold personnel accountable for digital governance failures.
