Of the development of the economic observer, led by state-owned assets supervision and administration of state function definition classification scheme has formed a preliminary opinion, according to the state-owned assets supervision and administration commission (microblogging), the future 112 state-owned enterprises will be divided into three categories, respectively, the public security, specific functions and business competition, and the different types of state-owned enterprises reform direction also have different emphasis in the future. Next, the scheme also need through the soe reform leading group discussion and modification, or will be announced in the first quarter of next year.

Three types of

Looking from all walks of life to the top-level design of the reform of enterprises at present has already entered a key period, in addition to an overall framework, will also with several interrelated were revealed. And according to the relevant people, relevant supporting scheme has been set by the ministries led respectively and formed a preliminary opinions, such as mixed ownership reform led by the national development and reform commission, the state function definition and classification, led by state-owned assets supervision and administration, perfect the state assets management system reform of the led unit is the ministry of finance, the above scheme after soe reform leading group discussion and modified, or will be announced in the first quarter of next year.

State function definition classification scheme was as a breakthrough point of this round of reform of state-owned enterprises, has also been defined as to develop a mixed sector of the economy, set up two classes (state-owned asset management companies and state-owned assets operating company), to improve the oversight system for state-owned assets, to push forward the reform of the layout structure adjustment and so on many QianZhiXing measures.

China's enterprise reform and development research institute, vice President of edmond lee said the uncertainty classification, the mixed ownership is hard to push; Problems also involves assessment and classification, according to different evaluation criteria, the different types of resources and distribution will be adjusted; In addition classification will decide which company will be merged, etc.

Before for the classification of the state, the society also has a variety of opinions. Chairman zhi-ping song had advocated in the Chinese building materials, the existing state-owned enterprises may be classified according to the function of the state-owned economy, divided into two categories: public welfare safeguard and competitive safeguard of provide for the public welfare is a state-owned enterprise, competitive is state-owned economy and non-public ownership economy of cross-shareholdings, mutual integration of mixed ownership enterprises, this problem is simple and clear, and easy to understand and operate.

According to these people, and finally in the preliminary opinion of state-owned assets supervision and administration commission, 112 state was divided into three categories, respectively, the public security, specific functions, business competition.

For the classification of the big, sasac internal are always had a consensus. "Although the foreign didn't clear, but the state-owned assets supervision and administration of state-owned enterprises over the years has been of performance appraisal is generally classified according to the." Edmond lee said.

In terms of the definition of a specific category, according to the state-owned assets supervision and administration idea, to provide public products and services as the main purpose of realizing the maximization of social benefits of state is defined as the state of public classes, such as in cotton, grain storage in storage, etc.; Specific function class state is national strategy of service, to safeguard national security and national economic operation as the main target, realize the unity of the social and economic benefits, including the petroleum and petrochemical, electric power, communications and other fields of central enterprises and 11 military enterprise; While commercial competition, economic benefit as the main target, both social benefits and a total of 77.

The situation is, for the classification of public security and business competition of state-owned enterprises has been basically reached a consensus, but the division of state for a specific function, especially the state related business in the field of further refinement, there are differences.

Edmond lee also said, "this is the most controversial part. Part is similar to the state that is in the field of petroleum and petrochemical, electric power, communication has the characteristics of natural monopoly, and public welfare, competitive, internal segmentation is difficult."

These people also said that for this type of business model, the characteristics of its main business sectors determine its category.

The reform direction

Classification as QianZhiXing reform of mixed ownership reform, reform is more hope for non-public capital to see a clear picture, namely the three central enterprises in what fields or plate is non-public capital is expected to open in the future. So in addition to the classification of the foundation, the three kinds of different state the future direction of reform is crucial.

These people said, for the enterprises of public security class, state-owned assets supervision and administration of the plan is to further optimize the distribution of the public welfare of affordable business resources, accelerate reform of the classification of advocate complementary, stripping the public business, improve the public welfare of affordable business accounted for.

Among them it is worth noting that the public security in the state, the government of the franchise business, the future will be allowed to conform to the relevant qualifications of non-public capital investment into, to realize equity diversification; For the franchise business, according to the idea of the state-owned assets supervision and administration commission, is open to all kinds of capital, government purchase, the government need to be aware of is to strengthen the quality of products and services, the price level, operating costs, safety in production, the respect such as information disclosure regulation, introduce the social evaluation.

And for the most attention of petroleum and petrochemical, electric power, telecommunications and other fields 18 specific function the reform of state-owned enterprises, state-owned assets supervision and administration, for natural monopoly class, to implement to separate government functions from enterprise management, soe should separate, franchising, government regulation reform, promote the network separation, independent operation, open and competitive business link, ensure all kinds of market main body equal access. For network platform, through channels such as capital markets and equity investment, to absorb the participation of social capital, in part of the network link equity diversification; The network platform, military special operations, such as practice on the basis of cost supervision, on the basis of reasonable cost and reasonable profits of pricing mechanism.

However, this is basically the continuation of the third plenary session of the file content, and there is not much new.

The personage inside course of study says, this is also the most controversial part of the reform, to reform this kind of enterprise is one of the premise of natural monopoly and perfectly competitive business points clear. But most of these enterprises business chain long, all sorts of business have intersection, a clear definition is not easy to do.

"So the state-owned assets supervision and administration of the file is more of a principled, impossible to define so specific, too specific enterprise is difficult to operate, and easy to conflict." Edmond lee said. "Before I was inclined to the outside world needs to determine negative list of industry admittance, can list specific negative list, such as the industry related to national security, including the national defense security, economic security, such as strategic reserve security and information security, and other industries and key areas; is' real 'natural monopoly industries, it has long-term industry of economy of scale, etc can be temporarily closed to open, non-public economy can clearly know yourself or plate can enter the field." He said.

Edmond lee, however, noted that "is the positive side, the national development and reform commission or, to be published this month in the infrastructure and public utilities franchise management method", to the implementation of franchising conditions of infrastructure and public utilities projects have a spec: including access to conform to the domestic and foreign related laws and regulations; with public welfare, long-term, operating, can share the risk, etc." "This or will make the above state through franchising operable mode gradually let go of the field." Edmond lee said.

After also has the development and reform commission official said, infrastructure and public utilities franchise way to encourage non-public enterprises to franchise areas, play a decisive role in market allocation resources, is of great significance.

For the attention of 77 business class competition state, the reform of state-owned assets supervision and administration to reform direction, guided by economic benefit, comprehensively promote market-oriented reform.

In particular, is to increase the intensity of restructuring integration, speed up the development of the mixed ownership economy, improve industrial concentration, efforts to develop a number of domestic and international dynamic and influential enterprise in the industry. Improve the evolution of the market mechanism, eliminate no competitive advantage, the long-term loss of enterprise, to speed up the disposal of inefficient, ineffective, and bad assets, orderly into the potential of industries and enterprises.

In addition, these people said, the future of the state of public security, a specific function, sasac's attitude is wholly state-owned capital to keep or absolute holding; An important backbone enterprise in class enterprise of business competition, state-owned capital will also maintain absolute holdings, and other state-owned capital shall, in accordance with the market rules, the rational flow.
