China privatisations press ahead
Article Abstract:
The Chinese government seems determined to accumulate a large number of companies eligible for overseas listings, even though it has been necessary to delay flotations for which approval has already been granted. The State Economic and Trade Commission plans to put 150 state enterprises on the stock markets in the period to 2001. Shares of around 200 of the 500 large state-owned enterprises have already been offered to the public, and the money raised will be used to undertake further reforms.
