Abstract
The integration of LegalTech in China's financial and legal sectors offers useful insights for innovative legal practices, financial regulation and judicial reform. This article examines how LegalTech transforms personal credit risk management in China, analyzing its integration within banking compliance systems and judicial processes. It explores three key dimensions: the evolution of debt collection practices through technological innovation, the enhancement of public remedies through automated judicial systems, and the development of legal frameworks to legitimize LegalTech solutions. While highlighting LegalTech's potential to improve efficiency in credit risk resolution, the article addresses critical challenges including moral hazard in automated systems and the preservation of judicial discretion in technological implementation.
