The development of service industry is facing some new requirements along with the fulfillment of basic industrialization and the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry. Change in demographic structure is both a pressure and an opportunity for the development of service industry.

Policy options are offered as follows: relax market access for service industry, transform supervision modes, cultivate an institutional environment that encourages innovation while tolerating failure, nurture and develop diversified service participants; expand investment in human capital of service industry, improve taxation policies conducive to the development of service industry, bring forth different types of financial services, expand open-up to domestic and overseas markets and improve infrastructure facilities of service industry; speed up the building of an environment focusing on fair sharing of economic benefits and orderly competition, and improve the statistical system of service industry and service trade.
