On October 10, Wu Qing, Secretary and Chairman of the Party Committee of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, held an expert symposium on capital markets and financial situations in Beijing to have in-depth exchanges with heads of listed companies and experts from securities fund institutions. Participants believed that my country's macro-economy is stable and improving, and proposed to continue to strengthen the construction of market stabilization mechanisms, expand medium and long-term funding sources, develop and expand patient capital, promote qualified listed companies to increase dividend repurchases, and improve investor returns and rights protection mechanisms. Qian Shengdong, investment consultant of Galaxy Securities, pointed out that the core of the symposium was to stabilize expectations rather than strong stimulus, and the policy was developed around the two main lines of capital and return. He Li, chief investment adviser of Cathay Pacific Haitong, said that the symposium unified the consensus on the market situation and made it clear that we should continue to strengthen the construction of market stabilization mechanisms, research and reserve more incremental policy tools. The symposium will regard broadening channels for medium- and long-term funds to enter the market as an important direction, and proposes to promote qualified listed companies to increase dividend repurchase efforts and improve investor returns and rights protection mechanisms. Just the day before the symposium, the China Securities Regulatory Commission publicly solicited opinions on the "Measures for the Operation and Management of Publicly Offered Securities Investment Funds (Draft for Comment)" and planned to lower the establishment thresholds for stock funds, hybrid funds, funds of funds and other products from 200 million yuan and 200 million units to 50 million yuan and 50 million units. He Li believes that the entry of medium and long-term funds into the market will open up the entry path of long-term funds such as social security, annuities, and insurance, optimize the long-term assessment mechanism of various institutional funds, improve the original speculative atmosphere of the market, and consolidate the long-term stable funding foundation. In terms of investor returns, in addition to promoting dividend buybacks, promoting investor education on indexed investments and improving the delisting system are also important links in improving investor returns. Qian Shengdong analyzed that the capital side is likely to advance along two paths: lowering market entry thresholds and expanding long-term capital sources: on the one hand, it will relax the constraints on product establishment and operation through new public offering regulations, and on the other hand, it will further optimize the market entry channels and investment ratios of long-term funds such as social security, insurance funds, and corporate annuities. He believes that this is more beneficial to leading companies with solid performance and stable cash flow. It is difficult for themed small market capitalization companies to obtain the favor of long-term funds; on the return side, it is necessary to move forward post-event supervision into institutional incentives to promote the normalization of dividend repurchases.
