One tiny step for reform, one decent bounce for a share price. On Monday China Unicom, the country’s second mobile carrier by subscriber numbers, said it was being considered for a pilot run of ownership reform for state-owned enterprises. This two-year-old plan, aiming to improve returns on state assets, would enable partial private ownership alongside the state, a so-called mixed ownership. Yesterday, its H shares (a quarter of the company is listed in Hong Kong) popped as much as 6 per cent.
改革的一小步,帶來了股價的可觀反彈。周一,中國用戶數(shù)量第二多的移動運營商中國聯(lián)通(China Unicom)表示正被考慮試點國企所有制改革。這一已提出兩年的計劃旨在提高國有資產(chǎn)的回報,它將在政府持股的同時允許部分私人持股——即所謂混合所有制。昨天,該公司港股(該公司有四分之一在香港上市)股價躍升幅度高達(dá)6%。
