Article Abstract:
China is adopting a restructuring scheme to ensure a comprehensive separation of control between government and state enterprises. This separation of ownership must dictate sound accountability in terms of spending and debt-paying by managers over financial resources. China may provide performance-based incentives for managers, create private financial intermediaries and apply the bankruptcy law for poor performances to ensure an effective corporate governance.
