    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Research Papers in Economics NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMIC RESEARCH PROJECT CAPITALIZING CHINA LATEST REVISED JULY 20, 2010 ASSESSING CHINA’S TOP-DOWN SECURITIES MARKETS William T. Allen New York University School of Law & NYU Stern School of Business Han Shen Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP China’s securities markets are unlike those of Amsterdam, London or New York. Those markets evolved over centuries from myriad interac- tions among those seeking finance on the one hand and savers seeking rewarding investments on the other. Such spontaneous securities mar- kets did emerge throughout China in the 1980s following the start of economic liberalization, but these spontaneous markets were closed by the government in favor of new and tightly controlled exchanges estab- lished in the early 1990s in Shanghai and Shenzhen. These new markets, have been designed to and largely limited to, serving state purposes, that is to assist in the financing of the state sector of the economy. Rather than evolving in a bottom-up pattern, they are controlled, top-down se- curities markets. This essay reviews as of June 2010, the development of these markets, the economic functions they perform, the regulatory structure that controls and shapes them, and the governance mechan- isms – legal and otherwise – that controls the management of the PRC listed companies. These markets represent a signal accomplishment of the Chinese leadership in producing in less than twenty years’ modern, albeit not yet fully developed, securities markets. Whether they can be further developed to serve more basic economic role than they have been permitted to play is a question with which the essay concludes.

However, the usual disclaimer applies. 1 Abstract This study investigates the impact of stock market development on economic growth in China. To this end, the quarterly data from 1996 to 2011 are used and the empirical investigation is conducted within the unit root and the cointegration framework. The results show that the relationship between the stock market development, proxied by the total market capitalization, and economic growth is negative. This result is consistent with Harris’ (1997) finding that the stock market development generally does not contribute positively to economic growth in developing countries if the stock market is mainly an administratively-driven market. Key Words: Stock Market, Economic Growth, Unit Root, Cointegration JEL Classification: G10, O1, O4, C22. 2 1. Introduction The impact of the stock market development on economic growth has long been a controversial issue. The theoretical debates generally focus on the increasing intermediation roles and functions of the stock market in promoting liquidity, mobilizing and pooling savings, generating information for potential investments and capital allocation, monitoring firms and exerting corporate control, and providing vehicles for trading, pooling and diversifying risks.

The China’s financial growth has always been interesting to discuss since it becomes one of the driver of the industrialization and economic growth in this twenty-first century. Unlike the other countries, China’s financial sector is dominated by banking system and non-banking system. The banking and non-banking system creates the China’s financial system alive. In addition, it also emerged the China’s stock market which is Shanghai stock exchange market and Shenzhen stock exchange market. These two stock markets are the biggest stock market in China mainland. These two stock markets help to provide the platform for the investor to invest. With the easiness offered by the central government of China, much investor joined the investment activities in China’s stock market.

    China took a big step in the development of both its financial and risk management markets when it officially inaugurated, on Sept. 8, the China Financial Futures Exchange in Shanghai. This exchange will extend into the financial sphere an industry that’s already thriving in commodities. Since the 1990s, the Dalian Commodity Exchange, the Shanghai Futures Exchange, and the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange have been trading a healthy slate of commodity futures, such as copper and fuel oil at the SFE, soybeans and corn at the DCE, and sugar and wheat at the The Dawning ZCE.

LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE COMMODITY AND FINANCIAL FUTURES MARKET IN CHINA Sanzhu Zhu* I. INTRODUCTION The establishment of China’s first commodity futures exchange in Zhengzhou, Henan in October 1990 marked the emergence of a futures market in China. The Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange was created in the wake of the country’s economic reform and development, and it became the first experimental commodity futures market approved by the central government. The Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange provided a platform and facilitated a need for commodity futures trading arising alongside China’s economic reform, which had begun in 1978, and which was moving towards a market economy by the early 1990s.1 Sixteen years later, the China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) was established in Shanghai.2 This was followed by the opening of gold futures trading on the Shanghai Futures Exchange on January 9, 2008.3 China gradually developed a legal and regulatory framework for its commodity and financial futures markets beginning in the early 1990s, * Senior Lecturer in Chinese commercial law, School of Law, SOAS, University of London.

  • The China Stock Exchange – IPO Overview 1
    The China Stock Exchange – IPO Overview 1 1. Regulatory Background 1.1 Overview of Regulatory In China, there are two public stock exchange markets, i.e., Shanghai Stock Exchange (the “ SSE ”) and Shenzhen Stock Exchange (the “SZSE ”). As of December 2012, 954 companies were listed on the SSE with a total market capitalization of RMB15,869.844 billion 2. As of May 30, 2013, 1,537 companies were listed on the SZSE with a total market capitalization of RMB 8,101.91374 billion 3. Both the SSE and SZSE operate the Main Board while the SZSE also runs the Small & Medium Size Enterprise Board (“ SME ”) and the ChiNext Board. The Main Board is designed for large scale companies which intend to solicit large amounts of public funds. SME adopts the same listing requirements as the Main Board while targeting companies with a smaller scale for equity flow. The ChiNext Board provides an important platform, with less stringent listing criteria, for those enterprises engaged in independent innovation businesses and other growing venture enterprises to solicit public funds. The Stock Exchange of Mainland China is operated by SSE and SZSE, as membership institutions, and is directly governed by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC ”). 1.2 Regulatory Entities CSRC is in ultimate charge of regulating the issuance, listing, trading, registration, depository and clearance of securities, and ensures that the operation of the stock market is in compliance with laws and regulations. SSE and SZSE provide a platform for the public trading of securities and oversee the trading of securities. 1.3 Required Approvals Any initial public offering (“IPO”) in China (including listings on the Main Board, SME and ChiNext Board) requires the approval of the Listing Committee of the CSRC.

    A study of Chinese market efficiency, Shanghai versus Shenzhen: Evidence based on multifractional models Pierre R.

The Chinese equity market is one of the emerging equity markets which offers an opportunity for international diversification, as a emerging markets, the Chinese stock markets are not mature. Since the 1990s, the reforms in regulations as well as in the attitudes of regulators have rendered the stock market more efficient. The progressive reform process of the stock market has improved the functioning of capital mar- kets and implemented market-based mechanisms. China's stocks pricing mechanism has been pushed toward a more market-oriented approach, in such cases, we expect an alteration in anomalies in the Chinese stock market. In this paper, we examine the daily data from the Shanghai A- share market, and Shenzhen A-share market over the 2006-2019 period. It would seem that in the Chinese stock market, the seasonal anomalies persist. But at the same time, by employing the Hurst exponent analysis, we find that the Chinese stock markets had a trend of becoming more and more efficient after the reform in October 2011. Keywords.
