　　一 、指导思想和基本原则
　　（一）指导思想
　　以邓小平理论和“三个代表”重要思想为指导，以科学发展观和构建社会主义和谐社会为统领，紧紧围绕建设“两个基地，一个中心”目标，以人民银行的企业和个人征信系统为基础，建立健全信用信息采集机制，建设中小企业信用体系和农村信用体系，开展企业资信评级工作，提升企业形象，促进信贷资金对企业的支持，加快改善金融生态环境，促进运城经济持续快速发展。
　　（二）基本原则
　　1、政府主导，人行推动。从我市的实际出发，充分发挥政府的组织、引导作用，人民银行要积极推动，各部门积极参与共同建设。
　　2、整体推进，重点突破。必须统筹规划，全面部署，协调推进，调动各个方面的积极性，形成合力。以健全信贷信用记录为重点，整合合同履约、纳税、环保、公安、司法、产品质量等方面的信用记录，努力在开展行业信用建设的同时，进行信用信息共享平台建设。
　　3、整合资源，信息共享。加强各部门、行业的信用信息数据的整合，进行信用信息的采集、披露和使用，实现信用信息的“无缝”交换与互通。加强信用信息的安全防护，依法逐步有序开放。确保公民个人隐私不受侵犯，确保政府政务机密、企业商业机密及其他相关信用信息安全。
　　4、因地制宜，节约高效。立足运城实际，本着节约高效、减少重复建设和资源浪费的原则，充分利用现有资源，以信贷征信体系建设为依托，加强信用信息数据源部门的协调和合作，逐步建立统一的信用信息平台。
　　二、主要内容
　　（一）加快完善企业和个人征信系统。以人民银行的企业和个人征信系统为重点，明确各部门相应的职责，做好相关征信工作。各部门要积极配合人民银行进行信息采集工作，逐步实现信息共享。充分发挥征信系统立足金融、服务社会的作用。
　　1、企业征信系统建设。认真做好信贷信用信息的征集工作，全面提高系统数据质量。不断扩充系统信息容量，及时更新已入库项目信息，提高信息的时效性和可用性。归集、整合公安、工商、税务、质监、药监、劳动和社会保障、财政、商务、物价、环保、国资、民政、安监、信息产业、建设、交通、司法、旅游、国土资源、农业、林业、科技、文化、出版、广电等部门及各行业组织数据库拥有的企业信用信息，以组织机构代码和企业基本信息为基础加快完善企业征信系统。
　　2、个人征信系统建设。加强重点涉信人群的信用建设，建立个人专业信用档案。以企业高管人员、个体工商户、各类专业技术人员，以及公务员、国有企事业在职职工等人群为重点，依法归集、整合公安、人事、劳动和社会保障、工商、税务、建设、民政、司法、教育、房管及各类公共事业部门数据库拥有的个人信用信息，以公民身份证号码为基础加快完善个人征信系统。
　　市中级法院、市建设局、市地税局、市工商局、市质监局、市环保局、市劳动和社会保障局、市卫生局、市公安局、市房地产管理处、市住房公积金管理中心要在做好本系统信用信息电子化的同时，积极配合人民银行运城市中心支行将非银行信用信息报入企业和个人征信系统。
　　其余部门的非银行信用信息采集根据工作安排进行。
　　（二）全面建设中小企业信用体系。其目的是在中小企业和银行之间搭建一个信息沟通平台，增强信息透明度，培育信用意识，改善融资环境，推动解决中小企业贷款难问题。人民银行运城市中心支行会同市工商局、市中小企业局、市地税局建立良性互动的协商机制，保证全市所有企业都有信用档案。市工商局要从源头把关，在企业登记注册的同时帮助企业建立信用档案；市地税局统一采集企业财务经营信息，供相关部门共享，解决企业多套帐的问题；市经委和市中小企业局要积极进行宣传，从中选出优秀企业提供给商业银行；各商业银行要对财务制度健全、信用管理制度完善、有市场发展前景的中小企业给予信贷支持。
　　（三）积极推动信用评级工作发展。要以提升企业信用,树立企业形象,解决中小企业贷款难和银行难贷款问题为出发点，积极开展企业资信评级工作，重点是借款企业和担保企业评级。人民银行运城市中心支行要加强对评级机构的监督管理,督促评级机构依法合规经营，培养有公信力的资信评级机构。各部门特别是各商业银行要加强宣传，积极组织企业参加资信评级工作，研究建立内外评级结果的应用机制,重视评级成果的转化。
　　（四）大力推动农村信用体系建设。继续开展信用乡（镇）、信用村和信用户建设，推动信用县（市、区）和金融安全区创建活动，创造良好的金融生态环境。市农村信用联社、市农发行、市邮政储蓄银行和市农行等涉农金融机构要逐步建立完善农户电子信用档案和农户信用评价的方式方法，提高信用风险管理水平；打造良好的农村信用环境，为农民积累更多的信誉财富；将农村信用体系建设同新农村建设结合起来，增强农民信用意识、改善农村信用环境和融资环境、提高农村金融服务水平。
　　三、主要措施
　　1、统一思想，提高认识。各县（市、区）人民政府和各有关部门必须从事关改革发展稳定大局的战略高度，充分认识加快推进企业和个人征信系统建设的重要性、紧迫性，根据县（市、区）、本部门的实际情况，按照职责分工，充分发挥职能作用，配合人民银行开展企业信用、个人信用体系的建设工作，不断提高依法行政水平，改善信用环境和信用秩序。
　　2、加强对征信系统建设的组织领导。成立运城市征信系统建设领导组，由市委常委、常务副市长张建合任组长，市政府副秘书长李丰林、人民银行运城市中心支行行长张林任副组长，市公安局、市中级人民法院、市检察院、市工商局、市质监局、市劳动和社会保障局、市环保局、市国税局、市地税局、市财政局、市商务局、市药监局、市物价局、市国资委、市民政局、市安监局、市建设局、市交通局、市司法局、市旅游局、市国土资源局、市农业局、市林业局、市科技局、市文化新闻出版局、市广播电视局、市人事局、市教育局、市中小企业局、市银监分局、市房地产管理处、市住房公积金中心等单位的主要负责同志为成员，统筹协调此项工作。
　　同时成立领导组办公室，由人民银行运城市中心支行副行长王侃任主任，成员由各部门分管领导组成，具体负责此项工作的落实。
　　3、加大政策支持力度，积极筹措征信系统建设资金。对征信体系公共基础设施项目的建设经费，凡属公共财政支出范围的，可逐步纳入财政预算统筹、规范安排并予以确保；在有关中介服务机构建立、运营过程中，涉及的政府性收费应予以适当减免，并在土地使用、工商登记、运营性资产购置等方面给予优惠。
　　4、积极使用征信系统的产品。各县（市、区）人民政府、各部门要率先在政府采购、土地交易、政府投资建设项目招投标、政府投资补助或贴息项目的选择、人才聘用等事项办理中使用信用产品，在登记注册、行政事务审批、日常监管、资质认定管理及周期性检验和评级评优等工作中逐步推广使用信用报告。鼓励银行和商业机构在与企业或个人发生信用交易、信用消费、信用担保、商业赊销和租赁等业务时，按照授权和规范流程，通过信用信息查询系统，查询当事人的信用报告或要求当事人提供信用报告。
　　5、加大征信宣传教育力度，进一步提高全社会诚信意识。各级宣传部门和相关单位要充分利用广播、电视、报刊、网络等传媒，在全市范围内组织开展征信知识宣传普及活动。把弘扬关公文化，建设“诚信之邦”作为社会主义精神文明的重要内容来抓，引导各类主体重视自身信用程度的社会评价，努力提高自身的信用等级，在全社会营造诚信光荣、失信可耻的社会氛围。注重加强对经济主体开展“诚信兴业”为内容的宣传教育，引导企业和个体工商户树立诚信理念，使“不做假账”、“不制假售假”、“不偷逃税款”、“不逃废债务”、“不违法经营”、“不拖欠职工工资”、“不拖欠社会保险费”、“不欠缴住房公积金”成为企业和个人的自觉行动。
