With the rapid expansion of the Chinese economy, corporate governance has become a high priority both for the government presiding over the transition to a more market based economy, and the businesses and shareholders at the core of market development. In 2002, for instance, China's Securities Regulatory Commission and the State Economic and Trade Commission adopted a code of corporate governance for listed and non listed companies. In 2003, the government set up a new commission, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) to divide the ownership and regulatory functions of State Owned Enterprises. The government has made capital market development and financial market stability primary goals, and has recognized the value of improved transparency and governance in attaining them.  |
