A Closer Look at China's Lgfvs: Chongqing A Closer Look at China’s LGFVs: Chongqing May 21, 2020 Key Takeaways Primary Analyst Renyuan Zhang — Following a desktop analysis of 83 local government financing vehicles (LGFVs) in Beijing Chongqing City, we believe that the median indicative issuer credit quality of vehicles in the +86-10 6516 6028 renyuan.zhang city is slightly higher than the national median. @spgchinaratings.cn — Chongqing has relatively strong indicative support capability for LGFVs among all cities in the country. However, when compared with the 12 selected peers, its indicative support Secondary Analysts capability for LGFVs is at average level, mainly due to its good economic development, Yingxue Ren average debt level, and relatively weaker fiscal balance. Beijing +86 10 6516 6037 — We believe the overall indicative issuer credit quality of Chongqing LGFVs at city level or in Yingxue.Ren Liangjiang New Area is relatively stronger, while the overall indicative issuer credit quality @spgchinaratings.cn of vehicles in regions such as Liangping District, Qianjiang District, Shizhu County, Yunyang County, Wulong County, and Xiushan County is relatively weaker. Huang Wang Beijing +86 10 6516 6029 Huang.Wang @spgchinaratings.cn To get a full picture of the overall credit quality of LGFVs in Chongqing, we carried out a desktop Kexin Wang analysis of 83 LGFVs in the region, using public information. Our sample includes vehicles at the Beijing +86 10 6516 6033 city-level and below and subway companies, but excludes city-level transportation construction Kexin.Wang companies, investment holding companies and utility companies. The entities in the sample @spgchinaratings.cn represent close to 81% of LGFVs with bonds outstanding in Chongqing, covering 36 districts and counties. We believe they offer a comprehensive reflection of the overall indicative credit quality of LGFVs in Chongqing. We believe local government support is generally the most important factor when considering the credit quality of LGFVs. In this report, we have compared Chongqing’s indicative capability to support and the distribution of indicative importance of LGFVs with its peers. We have also shown the indicative issuer credit quality distribution of Chongqing LGFVs by geographic location.

It had 26 districts, 8 counties, and 4 autonomous counties within its jurisdiction, with a total area of about 1,400 square kilometers as of the end of 2019. It had a population of over 30 million permanent residents, and is considered the largest city in China by population. Chongqing is the economic center of upper reaches of the Yangtze River, an important modern manufacturing base of China, a transport pivot of southwest China, and an inland city with open economy. In 2019, it generated about 2.3 trillion RMB in GDP, slightly lower than median of all provincial governments in the country. GDP per capital was 75,000 RMB, higher than the median of all provincial governments. The major products of industrial companies in Chongqing include automobiles, laptops, printers, integrated circuits, and LCDs, etc. In 2019, the general public budget revenue of Chongqing was around 213.5 billion RMB, among which 154.1 billion RMB was contributed by tax revenue. Its fiscal strength is average level of all provincial governments. We believe that the distribution of indicative issuer credit quality of 83 Chongqing LGFVs in our sample is broadly consistent with that of a nationwide sample of 1700 vehicles, while the median of the 83 vehicles’ indicative issuer credit quality is slightly higher than the national median. We believe Chongqing has relatively strong indicative capability to support the vehicles, while the indicative issuer credit quality of the vehicles across Chongqing is dispersedly distributed due to the large number of districts and counties in Chongqing with disparity in development.

S&P Global (China) Ratings www.spgchinaratings.cn 3 A Closer Look at China’s LGFVs: Chongqing May 21, 2020 Indicative Support Capability: At Average Level Compared to Peers When analyzing Chongqing’s indicative support capability for its LGFVs, we have performed peer comparison with other provincial level municipalities (like Beijing, Shanghai, and Tianjin), five municipalities with independent planning status (like Dalian, Qingdao, Ningbo, Xiamen, and Shenzhen) which have relatively independent fiscal power and developed economy, and some provincial capitals also located in western China (like Chengdu, Xi'an, Guiyang, and Kunming). We view that Chongqing has average indicative support capability for LGFVs compared with the selected peers, primarily due to the combined effect of its good economic development, average debt level, and relatively weaker fiscal balance. However, when comparing among all cities in China, we view that Chongqing and the selected peers all have relatively strong indicative support capability. In 2019, Chongqing’s GDP ranked 4th among the peers, only behind Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen. Its debt ratio is at an average level compared to peers, lower than that of Chengdu, Dalian, Xi’an, Guiyang, and Tianjin.

  • 1 Researching State Rescaling in China
    Researching state rescaling in China: methodological reflections Kean Fan Lim School of Geography University of Nottingham Sir Clive Granger Building, University Park, NG7 2RD UK Tel: +44(0)115 9515428 Fax: +44(0)115 9515249 [email protected] 15 September 2017 Accepted for publication in Area Development and Policy Abstract: This paper foregrounds and evaluates the research design associated with the study of Chinese state rescaling. It first synthesizes the existing gaps in the original, western- based state rescaling framework. The paper then explores how different methodological channels are integrated to support a revised analytical framework. Specifically, it presents the value of multi-sited comparisons through (a) the ‘extended case method’ and (b) the role of the ‘concurrent nested approach’ to data collection. In so doing, the paper offers a systematic assessment of the methodological contributions and constraints in ascertaining and explaining how regulatory reconfigurations unfold across space and time in China. Key words: state rescaling; research design; extended case method; policy experimentation fieldwork; China Acknowledgements This paper has benefited significantly from the comments and suggestions by the editors of Area Development and Policy and the four anonymous reviewers. I would like to thank Trevor Barnes and Jamie Peck for supervising this project as part of my doctoral dissertation at the University of British Columbia. While the process of fieldwork was dynamic, the care and encouragement from my wife, Stephanie Lim, remained a constant guiding light for which I am always grateful. 1 1. Introduction Since the mid-1970s, advanced economies in western Europe and North America have been experiencing a transition from a nationally-configured, Fordist-Keynesian developmental approach towards a ‘flexible’ mode of production based in and around city-regions.

  • China's Special Economic Zones And
    China’s Special Economic Zones and Industrial Clusters: Success and Challenges Douglas Zhihua Zeng © 2012 Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Working Paper The findings and conclusions of this Working Paper reflect the views of the author(s) and have not been subject to a detailed review by the staff of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy. Contact the Lincoln Institute with questions or requests for permission to reprint this paper. [email protected] Lincoln Institute Product Code: WP13DZ1 Abstract In the past 30 years, China has achieved phenomenal economic growth, an unprecedented development “miracle” in human history. How did China achieve this rapid growth? What have been its key drivers? And, most important, can China sustain the incredible success? While policy makers, business people, and scholars continue to debate these topics, one thing is clear: the numerous special economic zones and industrial clusters that emerged after the country’s reforms are without doubt two important engines of China’s remarkable development. The special economic zones and industrial clusters have made crucial contributions to China’s economic success. Foremost, the special economic zones (especially the first several) successfully tested the market economy and new institutions and became role models for the rest of the country to follow. Together with the numerous industrial clusters, the special economic zones have contributed significantly to gross domestic product, employment, exports, and attraction of foreign investment. The special economic zones have also played important roles in bringing new technologies to China and in adopting modern management practices. However, after 30 years’ development, they also face many significant challenges in moving forward.
