Research On The Impact And Countermeasures Of Economic And Trade Rules Of CPTPP State-Owned Enterprises On China

With the deepening of international economic and trade exchanges,the share of state-owned enterprises in international trade in emerging countries represented by China is increasing,and in this context,many regional free trade agreements led by the West have begun to develop in the direction of stricter regulation of state-owned enterprises.With China’s intention to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership(CPTPP),the issue of China ’ s state-owned enterprises has become a huge challenge.The economic and trade rules of CPTPP state-owned enterprises are based on the bonding theory and the theory of competitive neutrality,and embody the connotation of the theory of competitive neutrality of the American model on the basis of inheriting the theory of competition neutrality of the Australian model.Compared with previous international free trade agreements,the CPTPP expands the scope of the concept of state-owned enterprises,lowers the threshold for countervailing duty investigations,and sets stricter standards for information disclosure.At the same time,it also increases the burden of proof on the requested party in the dispute resolution process.At this stage,the reform of China ’ s state-owned enterprises is still in progress,and there is a big gap between the important position of state-owned enterprises as the pillar of the national economy and Western countries.If joins the CPTPP at this stage,accepting the economic and trade rules of CPTPP state-owned enterprises will mean a huge challenge for China.However,coexisting with the challenges is the opportunity for reform,whether or not to join the CPTPP,its future impact on the development of China’s international economic and trade exchanges is inevitable.Therefore,in order to strive for more voice,China should accelerate domestic reform,on the one hand,accelerate the development of the fair competition review system under the rule of law,realize the institutional convergence between fair competition review and the Anti-Monopoly Law,and form a sound competition policy system;On the other hand,we should continue to further promote the reform of the categorical governance of state-owned enterprises,reduce improper government interference in commercial state-owned enterprises,clarify the division of functions between pure public welfare state-owner enterprises,fully competitive state-owned enterprises and special functional state-owned enterprises,on this basis,promote the reform of financial ledger operation and equity structure arrangement of state-owned enterprises,and improve domestic industrial policies and information disclosure mechanisms;In addition,we should also fully prepare for negotiations in the later stage,actively express reasonable demands,and make good use of CPTPP exceptions and exceptions to the schedule of concessions in light of the actual situation,so as to strive for more interests for China’s state-owned enterprises.
