On this second site, you can look up your own company’s rating by searching for the company’s name or Unified Social Credit Identifier (an 18-digit number) (the site is available in Chinese only). Databases with these lists are already publicly available in China today.įor an insight into the current blacklists and social scoring system, consult the National Credit Information Sharing Platform and the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System. Conversely, people and businesses who behave particularly well within the system will be put on red lists. State authorities will blacklist individuals and companies that have broken existing laws, rules, and local regulations. These listings are based on a ‘rap sheet’, a type of behaviour certificate. We can assume that it will build upon already existing and widespread listing systems. The government also hopes that computer analyses of enormous databases will allow predictions of future social behavior.Īs the national system is still under construction and there is no consistent explanation from the Chinese government, there are currently many different views of how the social credit system will work and exactly what it will involve. Even environmental protection should benefit from increased control and surveillance. Government services should also be optimized through the data-based system. The State would like to improve the Chinese people's management of debt and finances, and to establish a credit score for the millions of citizens without a bank account. Ideally, it should set up preventive self-control measures that can nip negatively evaluated behavior in the bud.įurther goals include avoiding food scandals, fighting pervasive corruption, and increasing security, as citizens will be encouraged to follow the rules and laws. According to its own communications, the Chinese state is particularly focused on the educational aspect of the social credit system. The Chinese regime wants to track the behavior of citizens, companies, authorities, and organizations from a political, moral, and social point of view. The national social credit system under construction should help meet several goals. The government also hopes that computer analyses of enormous databases will allow predictions of future social behaviour. Government services should also be optimised through the data-based system. If possible, the State will track almost all economic and business activities through comprehensive market regulation based in IT and big data (Corporate SCS).įurther goals include avoiding food scandals, fighting pervasive corruption, and increasing security, as citizens will be encouraged to follow the rules and laws. From an economic standpoint, the Chinese government will rely on the driving and piloting effects of the rating system. The system should also lead to more honesty and trust in the community if citizens and companies are guided by a compulsory and universal scoring system. Ideally, it should set up preventive self-control measures that can nip negatively evaluated behaviour in the bud.Ĭitizens should behave for the common good and set good examples for society by volunteering to perform tasks that benefit the community.
