  • Presentation by Beijing Credit Society / HYJZ Ltd: Why China Needs MyData and Its Potential Applications in Emerging countries

Author: Xinhai Liu (Vice president of. Beijing Credit Society)  Guangyong An (Chief Data Official of Haiyangjinzhi Data Co. Lid [Beijing])
China, home to the world’s largest digital economy, faces both challenges and opportunities in developing person-centric data ecosystems. Credit reporting, one of the earliest MyData industries, illustrates the problem clearly: traditional models—built on rigid data sources, outdated assessments, and low transparency—are in decline. At the same time, stricter privacy regulations are reshaping how personal financial data can be used. These dynamics highlight the urgent need for new approaches that balance data utility with individual rights.

Our presentation will explore why MyData is essential for China and its potential applications. We will show how AI-enabled services can act as personal credit assistants, empowering individuals to access and control their data, improve financial inclusion, and strengthen trust.

In addition, we will:

* Compare MyData with other personal data economy models, including Open Banking, India’s Account Aggregator framework, data brokers, big data exchanges, and consumer reporting companies, highlighting differences in inclusiveness, transparency, and sustainability.
* Share our experience of studying and promoting MyData since 2019, during which Chinese regulators and industry institutions have gradually begun to recognize its value.
* Discuss how MyData can contribute to tackling China’s pressing youth unemployment challenge by fostering new data-driven services, entrepreneurship, and cross-sector innovation.

For the MyData audience, this session provides both strategic insight and practical examples. Participants will gain a clear understanding of why China urgently needs MyData, how key applications—especially in consumer credit—can drive innovation, and why China’s experience offers lessons highly relevant for other emerging markets.
