The role of trade associations: As an assistant of the government, trade associations can only rely on the administrative department to engage in activities to exercise the government's function of managing economic affairs within a certain scope. Some trade associations only collect membership fees and do not provide services for member enterprises, becoming the "second government" of enterprises, losing the true nature of trade associations, resulting in the inability of trade associations to play their due functions.
Trade association refers to a social intermediary organization that serves, consults, communicates, supervises, is fair, self-disciplined and coordinated between the government, enterprises and commodity producers and operators. Trade association is a kind of non-governmental organization, which does not belong to the series of government management institutions, but a bridge and link between the government and enterprises. Trade association belongs to the enterprise legal person stipulated in China's civil law, and it is a kind of non-governmental organizations and social groups in China, that is, internationally renowned non-governmental organizations (also known as NGOs), which are non-profit organizations.

Autonomy is the most essential feature of trade associations. Trade associations, like other autonomous organizations, once established according to law, can act independently within the legal scope to achieve the specific purpose of establishing the organization.

Autonomy mainly includes the right to manage autonomous affairs, the right to organize personnel and the right to use funds.
