国资监管合规具有很强的实践性,研究国资监管合规首先需要厘清国资监管机构的发展,从历史和发展的角度把握合规体系;需要以合规的概念刨析国资监管合规的具体内涵,明确我们建设怎样的合规体系;还需要从更深层次把握国资监管合规的意义,解决为什么要合规的问题;更需要掌握合规之“规”,为行为提供指引,所有这些都是国资监管合规的基本问题,这是我们企业合规体系建设的基石,有助于我们从更深层次理解和把握国资监管合规的精神实质,是我们国资监管合规体系建设的第一步,本文以上述基本问题为出发点,对上述问题作基本阐释,以期能对读者理解国资监管合规有所裨益。 一、从国资监管体系的建立与发展 (一)国资监管机构的变革:由国家国有资产管理局到国资委和财政二元监管模式 1、财政部管理的国家局:国家国有资产管理局(副部级)。1988年3月,经全国人大七届一次会议批准,国务院机构改革中唯一新增设的政府部门——国家国有资产管理局。这是建国后中国第一个专职从事国有资产管理的政府职能机构。1994年2月25日,国务院办公厅印发《财政部和国家国有资产管理局职能配置、内设机构和人员编制方案》,国家国有资产管理局为财政部管理的国家局(副部级)。 2、国务院国资委成立及二元监管模式的形成。2003年4月25日,国务院办公厅印发《国务院国有资产监督管理委员会主要职责内设机构和人员编制规定》,划入财政部有关国有资产管理的部分职责。国务院授权国有资产监督管理委员会代表国家履行出资人职责,监管范围是中央所属企业(不含金融类企业)的国有资产。对于其他未划入国资委的职责仍由财政部行使。从此,国资监管进入国资、财政二元监管时代。 2019年11月7日,国务院办公厅印发《国有金融资本出资人职责暂行规定的通知》,各级财政部门根据本级政府授权,集中统一履行国有金融资本出资人职责。 (二)国资监管机构权利来源及类型 1、国资监管权利来源于本级政府授权,具有很强的地域性。 (1)国务院和地方人民政府代表国家履行出资人职责。根据《中华人民共和国企业国有资产法》第四条规定,国务院和地方人民政府依照法律、行政法规的规定,分别代表国家对国家出资企业履行出资人职责,享有出资人权益。 (2)国有资产监督管理机构根据授权履行出资人职责。根据《企业国有资产监督管理暂行条例》第六条规定,国务院,省、自治区、直辖市人民政府,设区的市、自治州级人民政府,分别设立国有资产监督管理机构。国有资产监督管理机构根据授权,依法履行出资人职责,依法对企业国有资产进行监督管理。 2、国资监管机构类型 (1)国有资产监督管理委员会。根据《国有企业资产法》第十一条之规定,国有资产管理机构根据本级人民政府授权,代表本级人民政府对国家出资企业履行出资人职责。《企业国有资产监督管理暂行条例》第六条、第十二条规定,国有资产监督管理机构根据授权,依法履行出资人职责,依法对企业国有资产进行监督管理。国务院国有资产监督管理机构是代表国务院履行出资人职责、负责监督管理企业国有资产的直属特设机构。省、自治区、直辖市人民政府国有资产监督管理机构,设区的市、自治州级人民政府国有资产监督管理机构是代表本级政府履行出资人职责、负责监督管理企业国有资产的直属特设机构。 上级政府国有资产监督管理机构依法对下级政府的国有资产监督管理工作进行指导和监督。 (2)财政部门。根据《国有企业资产法》第十一条之规定,国务院和地方人民政府根据需要,可以授权其他部门、机构代表本级人民政府对国家出资企业履行出资人职责。实践中,财政部门监管的国有企业主要有金融资本、行政事业单位出资企业、文化企业。 根据《国有金融资本出资人职责暂行规定的通知》,各级财政部门根据本级政府授权,集中统一履行国有金融资本出资人职责。财政部门是行政事业资产的监督和管理机构,行政事业单位出资设立企业一般应由财政部门履行出资人监管职责。基于特定行业监管需要,文化企业通常也为财政部门履行出资人职责。 除此之外,部门地区国有资产较少,没有单独设立国有资产监督管理机构的,通常也由财政部门履行出资人职责。 二、从合规概念看国资监管合规 (一)合规概念 根据《中央企业合规管理指引(试行)》第二条规定,合规是指企业及其员工的经营管理行为符合法律法规、监管规定、行业准则和企业章程、规章制度以及国际条约、规则等要求。 由此可见,企业合规是以企业及员工的行为为载体,以法律法规、监管规定、行业准则、企业章程、规章制度,国际条约、规则为准绳,系规范行为以符合规定的动态过程。 (二)合规的类型 1、具体合规与全面合规。根据合规的所涉及的领域不同,企业合规可以划分为具体合规与全面合规。 具体合规,顾名思义,系企业某一业务领域的合规,包含合同管理合规、安全生产合规、企业投资行为合规、企业资产交易合规、企业财务合规、企业采购合规等各个企业业务领域。 全面合规,系将合规要求覆盖各业务领域、各部门、各级子企业和分支机构、全体员工,贯穿决策、执行、监督全流程;合规管理与法律风险防范、监察、审计、内控、风险管理等工作相统筹、相衔接,确保合规管理体系有效运行。 2、程序合规与实体合规。根据合规所符合的规范性质,企业合规可分为程序合规和实体合规。 程序合规,即企业和员工的行为符合规定中的程序性事项,比如说,在公司治理合规中,某项董事会决议事项是否按照董事会议事规则开展,是否按照章程规定履行党委会前置程序;在资产交易中,是否按照规定履行审计和评估程序等,都属于程序合规研究范畴。 实体合规,即企业和员工的行为符合规定中的实体内容,比如说,在公司治理合规中,董事会成员履行董事职责是否符合公司章程规定,是否勤勉尽责;在企业投资合规中,投资项目是否具有可行性等,都属于实体合规范畴。 (三)国资监管合规 国资监管合规,指国有企业全面合规重要组成部分,涉及企业公司治理、资产交易、企业投资、财务管理等主要领域,程序合规与实体合规并重,系指企业及其员工的经营管理行为符合法律规定、国资监管规定、企业章程、规章制度规定。 三、企业合规的意义 (一)积极意义:合规对于企业发展的积极作用 为推进法治国企建设,国务院国资委、山东省国资委等地方国资委相继印发《关于全面推进法治央企建设的意见》、《山东省国资委关于全面推进法治国企建设的意见》(鲁国资企改〔2015〕1号)等法治企业建设意见,充分阐释了法治企业即合规建设意义。 1、合规是依法治企需要,是国资监管部门对国企的基本要求。 随着依法治国的全面推进,国家保障公平竞争的法律规范将更加完备,政府职能转变、简政放权的深度广度将进一步加大,司法公信力将明显提高,全民法治观念将逐步增强。法治环境的新变化为国有企业做优做强提供了强大推动力,同时也对国有企业平等适用法律、公平参与竞争、依法合规管理提出了新的要求。建设“合规国企”有利于国有企业作表率、树形象,与各种所有制企业共同维护市场秩序和竞争环境。 2、合规企业软实力,有利提升企业竞争力,是企业实现稳健发展的必由之路。 近年来,国有企业资产规模不断扩大,但经济效益却没有同步增长,有的还遭遇较大风险。国内外大企业的经验教训表明,企业越大风险越多,可持续发展的要求越高,经营管理也越来越依赖法治。在我国经济发展新常态下,国有企业转调创改的任务重,提质增效的压力大,平衡短期效益与长期发展更加困难。只有祭起合规大旗,企业才能进一步规范经营管理,不断增强竞争力。 3、合规有利于防范企业潜在风险,降低风险、减少损失也是企业效益。 以法商融合、创造价值为核心,在扎实做好法律纠纷案件管理、合同管理、工商管理的同时,进一步拓宽法律风险防范领域,结合国有资本投资运营、完善公司治理机制、发展混合所有制经济等重点改革任务,严格法律审核,加强产权保护。在企业转型升级、创新驱动和国际化经营中,平衡风险与商机的关系,促进企业提质增效。建立统一的法律信息系统,运用信息化手段将法律风险防范嵌入到企业经营管理流程中并成为刚性约束。充分运用诉讼、仲裁等法律手段维护企业的合法权益,防止国有资产流失。 4、合规有利于规范员工行为,尽职免责,防范高管决策风险,促进企业健康发展。 合规建设是深化国资国企改革、建立现代企业制度的内在要求。未来几年,改建国有资本投资运营公司、健全国有资本投资运营体系,引入社会资本参与国有企业改革、发展混合所有制经济,健全公司法人治理结构、推行职业经理人制度等,必然带来相关利益的调整和法律关系的重构,工作的艰巨性和复杂性前所未有。改革越是艰巨复杂,就越要依法合规、坚守法律底线,杜绝违规操作,防止国有资产流失。只有全面提升依法治企能力,才能顺利完成各项改革任务,有效避免重大失误。 (二)消极意义:如不合规,将承担相应不利法律后果 1、不合规的民事责任风险。企业及企业员工因违规行为给他人造成损害的,应依法承担相应的民事责任。根据《民法典》第一千一百六十五条、一千一百六十六条之规定,行为人因过错侵害他人民事权益造成损害的,应当承担侵权责任。行为人造成他人民事权益损害,不论行为人有无过错,法律规定应当承担侵权责任的,依照其规定。 根据《公司法》第一百四十七条、一百四十九条之规定规定,董事、监事、高级管理人员应当遵守法律、行政法规和公司章程,对公司负有忠实义务和勤勉义务。董事、监事、高级管理人员执行公司职务时违反法律、行政法规或者公司章程的规定,给公司造成损失的,应当承担赔偿责任。 《企业国有资产法》第七十一条规定,国家出资企业的董事、监事、高级管理人员有“在企业改制、财产转让等过程中,违反法律、行政法规和公平交易规则,将企业财产低价转让、低价折股的”、“不如实向资产评估机构、会计师事务所提供有关情况和资料,或者与资产评估机构、会计师事务所串通出具虚假资产评估报告、审计报告的”、“违反法律、行政法规和企业章程规定的决策程序,决定企业重大事项的”、“其他违反法律、行政法规和企业章程执行职务行为的”等法定行为,造成国有资产损失的,依法承担赔偿责任。 2、不合规的行政责任风险。企业及企业员工违规行为违反有关行政监管规定,行政机关有权根据《行政处罚法》的规定对企业行政处罚。根据《行政处罚法》第三条之规定,公民、法人或者其他组织违反行政管理秩序的行为,应当给予行政处罚的,依照行政处罚法由法律、法规或者规章规定,并由行政机关依照行政处罚法规定的程序实施。 3、不合规的行政处分风险。《企业国有资产法》、《企业国有资产监督管理暂行条例》、《企业国有资产交易监督管理办法》等法律法规规章专章对违反监管规定的法律责任作出系统规定。此外,为加强和规范违规经营投资工作,国务院办公厅印发《关于建立国有企业违规经营投资责任追究制度的意见》,国务院国资委、各省国资委也相继出台企业违规经营投资责任追究实施办法,对违规经营投资责任作出规定。 根据上述规定,国有企业不合规行政处分类型主要有免职、警告,根据资产损失程度、问题性质等,对相关责任人采取组织处理、扣减薪酬、禁入限制、纪律处分、移送司法机关等方式处理。其中,组织处理。包括批评教育、责令书面检查、通报批评、诫勉、停职、调离工作岗位、降职、改任非领导职务、责令辞职、免职等。扣减薪酬。扣减和追索绩效年薪或任期激励收入,终止或收回中长期激励收益,取消参加中长期激励资格等。禁入限制。五年内直至终身不得担任国有企业董事、监事、高级管理人员。纪律处分。由相应的纪检监察机关依法依规查处。移送司法机关处理。依据国家有关法律规定,移送司法机关依法查处。以上处理方式可以单独使用,也可以合并使用。
The compliance of state-owned assets supervision is very practical. To study the compliance of state-owned assets supervision, we need to clarify the development of state-owned assets supervision institutions and grasp the compliance system from the perspective of history and development. We need to analyze the specific connotation of state-owned assets supervision compliance with the concept of compliance and clarify what kind of compliance system we should build. We also need to grasp the significance of state-owned assets supervision compliance from a deeper level and solve the problem of why compliance; it is more necessary to master the "rules" of compliance and provide guidance for behavior, all of which are the basic issues of state-owned assets supervision and compliance, which is the cornerstone of the construction of our enterprise compliance system. It helps us to understand and grasp the spiritual essence of state-owned assets supervision and compliance from a deeper level, and is the first step in the construction of our state-owned assets supervision and compliance system, in order to help readers understand the regulatory compliance of state-owned assets.
The Establishment and Development of State-owned Assets Supervision System in 1.
The reform of (I) state-owned assets supervision institutions: from the State Administration of State-owned Assets to the SASAC and the dual supervision model of finance
1. National Bureau managed by the Ministry of Finance: State Administration of State-owned Assets (at the vice-ministerial level). In March 1988, with the approval of the first session of the Seventh National people's Congress, the State Administration of State-owned assets was the only newly added government department in the institutional reform of the State Council. This is China's first full-time engaged in the management of state-owned assets after the founding of the government functional institutions. On February 25, 1994, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Function Allocation, Internal Institutions and Staffing Plan of the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of State-owned Assets". The State Administration of State-owned Assets is a national bureau (deputy ministerial level) managed by the Ministry of Finance.
2, the establishment of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council and the formation of the dual supervision model. On April 25, 2003, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Regulations on the Main Responsibilities, Internal Institutions and Staffing of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council", which was included in part of the responsibilities of the Ministry of Finance on state-owned assets management. The State Council authorizes the State-owned assets Supervision and Administration Commission to perform the duties of investors on behalf of the state, and the scope of supervision is the state-owned assets of enterprises under the central government (excluding financial enterprises). Other responsibilities not included in the SASAC are still exercised by the Ministry of Finance. Since then, the supervision of state-owned assets has entered the era of dual supervision of state-owned assets and finance.
On November 7, 2019, the General Office of the State Council issued the Notice on the Interim Provisions on the Responsibilities of State-owned Financial Capital Investors, in which financial departments at all levels, in accordance with the authorization of the government at the corresponding level, centrally and uniformly perform the duties of state-owned financial capital investors.
Sources and types of rights of (II) state-owned regulatory agencies
1, the right of state-owned supervision comes from the authorization of the government at the same level, which has a strong regional nature.
(1) The State Council and local people's governments perform the duties of investors on behalf of the State. According to Article 4 of the State-owned assets Law of the People's Republic of China Enterprises, the State Council and local people's governments, in accordance with the provisions of laws and administrative regulations, respectively perform the duties of investors on behalf of the state to state-funded enterprises and enjoy the rights and interests of investors.
(2) The state-owned assets supervision and administration institution shall perform the duties of the investor according to the authorization. According to Article 6 of the "Interim Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of State-owned Assets of Enterprises," the State Council, the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government, and the people's governments of cities divided into districts and autonomous prefectures have respectively established state-owned assets supervision and management agencies. The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Agency shall, in accordance with its authorization, perform its duties as an investor and supervise and manage the State-owned assets of enterprises in accordance with the law.
2. Types of state-owned regulatory agencies
(1) State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. According to the provisions of Article 11 of the "State-owned Enterprise Assets Law", the state-owned asset management agency shall perform the duties of investor on behalf of the people's government at the same level to the state-funded enterprise in accordance with the authorization of the people's government at the same level. Articles 6 and 12 of the "Interim Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of State-owned Assets of Enterprises" stipulate that the state-owned assets supervision and management agency shall perform its duties as an investor in accordance with the law and supervise and manage the state-owned assets of enterprises in accordance with the law. The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Agency of the State Council is an ad hoc agency directly under the State Council that performs the duties of investors on behalf of the State Council and is responsible for the supervision and management of state-owned assets of enterprises. The state-owned assets supervision and administration agencies of the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government, and the state-owned assets supervision and administration agencies of the people's governments of cities and autonomous prefectures are directly affiliated ad hoc agencies that perform the duties of investors on behalf of the government at the same level and are responsible for supervising and managing the state-owned assets of enterprises.
The state-owned assets supervision and administration organ of the government at a higher level shall guide and supervise the state-owned assets supervision and administration work of the government at a lower level according to law.
(2) The financial sector. According to the provisions of Article 11 of the State-owned Enterprise Assets Law, the State Council and local people's governments may, if necessary, authorize other departments and institutions to perform the duties of investors on state-funded enterprises on behalf of the people's government at the corresponding level. In practice, the state-owned enterprises supervised by the financial department mainly include financial capital, enterprises funded by administrative institutions and cultural enterprises.
According to the "Notice on the Interim Provisions on the Responsibilities of State-owned Financial Capital Investors", financial departments at all levels shall perform the duties of state-owned financial capital investors in a centralized and unified manner in accordance with the authorization of the government at the corresponding level. The financial department is the supervision and management organization of the assets of administrative institutions, and the establishment of enterprises funded by administrative institutions shall generally be supervised by the financial department. Based on the regulatory needs of specific industries, cultural enterprises usually also perform the duties of funders for the financial sector.
In addition, if there are few state-owned assets in the departments and areas, and there is no separate state-owned assets supervision and management institution, the financial department usually performs the duties of the investor.
2. from the concept of compliance to see state-owned regulatory compliance.
(I) Compliance Concept
According to Article 2 of the Guidelines for Compliance Management of Central Enterprises (for Trial Implementation), compliance means that the operation and management of enterprises and their employees comply with laws and regulations, regulatory regulations, industry standards and enterprise articles of association, rules and regulations, as well as international treaties and rules.
It can be seen that corporate compliance is a dynamic process of regulating behavior to comply with regulations based on the behavior of enterprises and employees, laws and regulations, regulatory regulations, industry standards, corporate articles of association, rules and regulations, international treaties, and rules.
Types of (II) Compliance
1, specific compliance and comprehensive compliance. Depending on the area of compliance, corporate compliance can be divided into specific compliance and comprehensive compliance.
Specific compliance, as the name implies, is the compliance of a certain business area of an enterprise, including contract management compliance, safety production compliance, enterprise investment behavior compliance, enterprise asset transaction compliance, enterprise financial compliance, enterprise procurement compliance and other enterprise business areas.
Comprehensive compliance, which covers all business areas, departments, subsidiaries and branches at all levels, and all employees, throughout the entire process of decision-making, implementation, and supervision; compliance management and legal risk prevention, supervision, auditing, and internal control, Risk management and other work are coordinated and connected to ensure the effective operation of the compliance management system.
2, procedural compliance and entity compliance. Corporate compliance can be divided into procedural compliance and physical compliance, depending on the nature of the norms to which compliance is subject.
Procedural compliance means that the behavior of enterprises and employees conforms to the procedural matters in the regulations. For example, in corporate governance compliance, whether a certain board resolution is carried out in accordance with the rules of procedure of the board of directors and whether the pre-procedures of the party committee are carried out in accordance with the provisions of the articles of association; In asset transactions, whether audit and evaluation procedures are performed in accordance with regulations belongs to the scope of procedural compliance research.
Entity compliance, that is, the behavior of enterprises and employees in accordance with the provisions of the entity content, for example, in corporate governance compliance, board members to perform the duties of directors in accordance with the provisions of the articles of association, whether the diligence; in corporate investment compliance, whether the investment project is feasible, etc., are within the scope of entity compliance.
(III) state-owned regulatory compliance
State-owned regulatory compliance refers to an important part of the comprehensive compliance of state-owned enterprises, involving corporate governance, asset transactions, corporate investment, financial management and other major areas, with equal emphasis on procedural compliance and entity compliance. It refers to the operation and management of enterprises and their employees. Behavior complies with legal regulations, state-owned regulatory regulations, corporate articles of association, rules and regulations.
The Meaning of 3. Corporate Compliance
(I) positive significance: the positive role of compliance for enterprise development
In order to promote the construction of state-owned enterprises under the rule of law, SASAC of the State Council, SASAC of Shandong Province and other local SASAC have successively issued opinions on the construction of state-owned enterprises under the rule of law, such as the opinions on comprehensively promoting the construction of state-owned enterprises under the rule of law, and the opinions on the construction of state-owned enterprises under the rule of law (2015 No. 1), which fully explains the significance of law.
1, compliance is the need to govern enterprises in accordance with the law, is the basic requirements of the state-owned regulatory authorities for state-owned enterprises.
With the comprehensive promotion of the rule of law, the state's legal norms to ensure fair competition will be more complete, the depth and breadth of the transformation of government functions and the streamlining of administration and decentralization will be further increased, the judicial credibility will be significantly improved, and the concept of the rule of law of the whole people will be gradually enhanced. The new changes in the legal environment provide a strong impetus for state-owned enterprises to become better and stronger, and at the same time put forward new requirements for state-owned enterprises to apply the law equally, participate in competition fairly, and manage in compliance with the law. The construction of "compliant state-owned enterprises" is conducive to state-owned enterprises to set an example, build an image, and jointly maintain market order and competitive environment with enterprises of various forms of ownership.
2, compliance enterprise soft power, conducive to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises, is the only way for enterprises to achieve steady development.
In recent years, the scale of assets of state-owned enterprises has been expanding, but the economic benefits have not increased at the same time, and some have encountered greater risks. The experience and lessons of large enterprises at home and abroad show that the bigger the enterprise, the more risks, the higher the requirements for sustainable development, and the management is increasingly dependent on the rule of law. Under the new normal of China's economic development, the task of transferring and reforming state-owned enterprises is heavy, the pressure of improving quality and efficiency is great, and it is more difficult to balance short-term benefits and long-term development. Only by raising the banner of compliance can enterprises further standardize their operation and management and continuously enhance their competitiveness.
3, compliance is conducive to preventing the potential risks of enterprises, reduce risks, reduce losses is also enterprise benefits.
With the integration of law and business and the creation of value as the core, while doing a solid job in legal dispute case management, contract management, and business management, we will further broaden the field of legal risk prevention, combine state-owned capital investment and operation, improve corporate governance mechanisms, and develop a mixed-ownership economy. Key reform tasks, strict legal review, and strengthen property rights protection. In the transformation and upgrading of enterprises, innovation driven and international operation, balance the relationship between risk and business opportunities, and promote the quality and efficiency of enterprises. Establish a unified legal information system, use information technology to embed legal risk prevention into the enterprise management process and become a rigid constraint. Make full use of litigation, arbitration and other legal means to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises and prevent the loss of state-owned assets.
4, compliance is conducive to regulating employee behavior, due diligence and exemption, to prevent the risk of executive decision-making, and promote the healthy development of enterprises.
Compliance construction is an inherent requirement for deepening the reform of state-owned enterprises and establishing a modern enterprise system. In the next few years, the reconstruction of state-owned capital investment and operation companies, the improvement of the state-owned capital investment and operation system, the introduction of social capital to participate in the reform of state-owned enterprises, the development of mixed ownership economy, the improvement of corporate governance structure, and the implementation of professional manager system will inevitably bring about the adjustment of relevant interests and the reconstruction of legal relations. The arduousness and complexity of the work are unprecedented. The more arduous and complex the reform is, the more it is necessary to comply with the law, adhere to the bottom line of the law, put an end to illegal operations, and prevent the loss of state-owned assets. Only by comprehensively improving the ability to govern enterprises according to law can we successfully complete various reform tasks and effectively avoid major mistakes.
(II) negative meaning: if non-compliance, will bear the corresponding adverse legal consequences

In addition, in order to strengthen and standardize the illegal operation and investment work, the general office of the State Council issued the opinions on establishing the accountability system for illegal operation and investment of state-owned enterprises. The state owned assets supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council and the state owned assets supervision and Administration Commission of all provinces have successively issued the implementation measures for the investigation of the responsibility for illegal operation and investment of enterprises, which stipulates the responsibility for illegal operation and investment.

4. the regulatory compliance system of state-owned assets.
Since the establishment of the State-owned Assets Administration Bureau in 1988 and the establishment of a special State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Agency in 2003, after more than three years of reform and development of the State-owned enterprise supervision system, my country has formed a comprehensive system of laws and regulations such as the Civil Code, the Company Law, and the Enterprise State-owned Assets Law, and the Interim Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Enterprise State-owned Assets, with the "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of State-owned Assets Transactions of Enterprises", "Measures for the Clearance and Verification of State-owned Enterprises", "Measures for the Registration and Management of State-owned Assets Property Rights of Enterprises" and other departmental regulations, as well as other local regulations and normative documents, multi-level and full Covered state-owned assets supervision and regulation system.
China's state-owned regulatory system is complex, clarifying the state-owned regulatory system is the basis of state-owned regulatory compliance practice, only clear state-owned regulatory should comply with the basic content of laws and regulations, in order to control the compliance direction of enterprises and employees' behavior.
