By Zhang Shuxian

On August 7, the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE), in cooperation with the Office of China Securities Regulatory Commission, Liaoning Provincial Local Financial Supervision Administration, and China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX), held a series of institutional investor service activities in Northeast China (Shenyang Stop) in Liaoning Province. Centered on the STAR Market’s “1+6” reform policies, this event aimed to enhance institutional investors’ awareness of building investment and financing platforms, strengthen efforts, and better promote the integrated development of technological innovation and industrial innovation.

At the opening ceremony, Zhan Wei, Deputy Director of the Liaoning Provincial Local Financial Supervision Administration, stated that this event aims to guide institutions in practicing the “Three Investments” concept and to attract financial resources to converge in Liaoning. The Liaoning Provincial Party Committee and Government attach great importance to the development of the capital market. The provincial government has issued multiple policy documents and signed strategic cooperation memoranda with the three major stock exchanges, continuously optimizing the development environment of Liaoning’s capital market. The Liaoning Provincial Local Financial Supervision Administration has been thoroughly implementing the Capital Market Enhancement Project, promoting listed companies to improve quality and accelerating the listing process of companies preparing to go public. Currently, the quality of listed companies is gradually improving, and the pool of prospective listed enterprises is continuously expanding. They look forward to institutional investors driving the aggregation of financial resources into Liaoning, injecting momentum into the revitalization of Northeast China.

A relevant official from the Office of China Securities Regulatory Commission stated that Liaoning is leveraging the opportunities brought by revitalization to strengthen its capital market, actively implementing relevant policies, and promoting the effective implementation of mergers and acquisitions, stock buybacks, increased holdings, and refinancing. Institutional investors are encouraged to remain confident, practice the “Three Investments” concept, and jointly foster a healthy ecosystem for capital market development. The Liaoning Securities Regulatory Bureau will continue to deepen reforms, enhance supervision and services, promote the entry of medium- and long-term funds into the market, and achieve a development pattern of mutual benefit for all parties.

A relevant official from the SSE stated that the Exchange has clearly defined the goals and tasks for strengthening and improving services to institutional investors. By promoting the high-quality development of the institutional investor community, the Exchange aims to better serve the broad base of retail investors and foster a market ecosystem that accelerates the building of a world-class stock exchange. The official encouraged institutional investors to implement the new round of reforms on the STAR Market, thoroughly understand the “1+6” reform policies, make effective use of tools on the investment side, and leverage functions on the financing side. This will help further enhance the STAR Market’s role as a “testing ground” and accelerate the development of a capital market ecosystem conducive to supporting comprehensive innovation.

During the event, the SSE provided an interpretative briefing on the STAR Market’s “1+6” reform policies. In addition, the Exchange organized presentations by market experts on topics such as the 2025 mid-term strategy outlook and how to invest in infrastructure REITs. Experts from CFFEX were invited to share and discuss how to utilize derivatives for asset management. Furthermore, the SSE conducted investor education activities at its branches in Liaoyang, Fushun, Tieling, Benxi, and Dandong, guiding investors to practice the “Three Investments” concept.

Going forward, the SSE will continue to improve its institutional investor service system by carrying out a series of specialized institutional investor service activities in key regions across the country. These efforts aim to support reforms on the investment side, promote the entry of medium- and long-term capital into the market, and facilitate the high-quality development of China’s capital markets.
