Hierarchical classification to promote mixed reforms

Peng Huagang said that in the reform of mixed ownership, we must adhere to the principle of "three causes, three suitable and three no", and measures should be adapted to local conditions, business conditions, and enterprise conditions. There should be no one-size-fits-all approach and no lalang matching.

The reform of stratification and classification should be highlighted.

Stratification, that is, the group company level and the secondary and tertiary company levels, require different measures. For central enterprise group companies, more are diversified reforms.

Classification, that is, to further promote market-oriented reforms for highly competitive industries, and for enterprises held by state-owned capital investment and operation companies, it is also the focus of mixed ownership reforms.

It is necessary to actively and steadily advance mixed-use reforms one by one with one strategy. Through mixed reform, further improve governance and further establish and improve market-oriented operating mechanisms.

Three aspects to prevent the risk of central enterprises' bonds

Peng Huagang said that at the end of June, the debt-to-asset ratio of central enterprises was 64.9%, a decrease of 1 percentage point year-on-year, and remained stable as a whole, with debt risks under control as a whole. In recent years, there has not been a single bond default incident in a central enterprise.

He pointed out that the next step is to continue to do a good job in debt risk management and control of central enterprises.

One is to control the debt ratio. Set warning lines and control lines in accordance with the industry to implement classified management and control. One enterprise, one policy determines the annual target of the debt ratio and follows it up to keep the overall debt level of central enterprises stable.

The third is to control high-risk businesses. It is necessary to strictly control the risks of non-main business low-margin commodity trading business, strictly control business risks such as financial derivatives, financing guarantees, and PPP, and resolutely prohibit financing trading businesses.

In terms of preventing bond risks, the first is to strictly restrict the proportion of bond issuance, strictly control the proportion of high-risk corporate bonds in interest-bearing debt and the proportion of short-term bonds in bonds, and prevent the risk of centralized redemption.

The second is to strictly enforce the use of bond funds, focus on the main business industry, strictly prohibit idle transfer of funds, deviate from the real and false, and strictly prohibit the misappropriation of funds for illegal arbitrage.

The third is to strengthen bond risk monitoring, focusing on the bond default risk of companies with severe operating losses and tight cash flow, and make arrangements for redemption funds in advance.

The fourth is to establish a credit protection fund to encourage enterprises to steadily resolve the risk of bond default in accordance with the principles of marketization, legalization, and internationalization.

Central enterprises must actively participate in the construction of the national energy rights and carbon emission rights trading market

Peng Huagang said that central enterprises should steadily promote the establishment of low-carbon development systems and mechanisms, promote enterprises to establish and improve carbon asset management systems, actively participate in the construction of national energy rights and carbon emission rights trading markets, and carry out carbon emissions reporting and information disclosure in accordance with the law. , SASAC supports enterprises to develop market-oriented energy-saving methods such as integrated energy services and contract energy management, guides enterprises to build an investment and financing system compatible with carbon peaks and carbon neutrality, and develop green financial products and business innovation.

He said that at present, some central enterprises have established professional institutions for carbon asset management, have carried out carbon emission statistics, accounting, inventory and other work, and are actively participating in carbon emissions trading. Central enterprises in key industries such as energy and steel have also invested in carbon trading institutions in Beijing, Shanghai, Hubei and other places. In the whole process, the central enterprises are very active, whether it is from the establishment of rules, the establishment of the market, to participation in carbon trading.

Peng Huagang said that the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) attaches great importance to carbon peaking and carbon neutral actions, and is now actively studying and formulating relevant opinions and plans to promote central enterprises to better play a role in carbon peaking and carbon neutral actions. The next step is to steadily advance the green and low-carbon transformation of the industrial structure, steadily advance the optimization of the energy structure, steadily advance the efficient and intensive use of energy resources, and steadily advance the application of green and low-carbon technologies.
