Is state-owned capital a state-owned enterprise?

State-owned capital is basically state-owned enterprises. For China's state-owned enterprises, more than 50% of the state-owned assets invested or controlled are state-owned enterprises. State-owned enterprises are mainly divided into:

1, a wholly state-owned enterprise

It means that all the assets of an enterprise are owned by the state, and the state authorizes the enterprise to operate and manage according to the principle of separation of ownership and management rights. A wholly state-owned enterprise shall obtain legal person status according to law, operate independently, be responsible for its own profits and losses, conduct independent accounting, and bear civil liability with the property authorized by the state to operate and manage.

2. Wholly state-owned companies

That is, an enterprise legal person invested by the state alone and established in the form of company organization. A wholly state-owned company in China refers to a limited liability company established by a state-authorized investment institution or a state-authorized department.

3. State-owned capital holding company

A state-owned holding company refers to a state-owned enterprise that controls the company by holding shares with decisive voting rights and is mainly engaged in capital operation and other production and operation.

Generally, it should include four kinds of state-owned holding companies, namely, state-owned holding companies, state-invested companies, large state-owned group holding companies and regional state-owned holding companies.

4. State-owned capital joint-stock companies

Corporate capital includes some state-owned capital, but state-owned capital has no controlling position. Subsidiaries established by state-funded enterprises do not belong to enterprises directly funded by the state, but the rights and interests of state-owned capital contributors of state-funded enterprises extend to subsidiaries through the investment of state-funded enterprises.
