More and more enterprises aware that it is difficult to grasp the rapidly changing market opportunities on their own internal resources integration. So they began turning their attention to external enterprises. Virtual enterprise, a means to effectively integrate external resources, aiming to enhance core competencies, becomes a real selection to adapt to economic globalization and the advent of network age.Virtual enterprise has advantage of rapidly exploiting product and meeting individual demand. Then virtual enterprise gradually enters our field and becomes the main research object of management scholars. After more than ten years of development, theory circle and practice circle discuss the relevant problems of virtual enterprise. But we still have not consensus on many questions. On the basis of literature that is grasped at present, how to constitute financial system of virtual enterprise have not studied yet. This paper analyses the financial questions of virtual enterprise and proposes its concrete financial institutional frame.The paper is organized as follows:Firstly, theoretical questions such as connotation, property, characteristics are analyzed.

This kind of division is favorable to constitute financial content and improve the effectiveness of system.(4) Connotation of capital is extended.
