This paper conducts an in-depth analysis on auditing problems in the process of the SOEs reform from managerial points of view, makes the suggestion that we should introduce governmental audit into the auditing supervision of the SOEs reform, and discusses its methods, approaches, contents and procedures in detail.

Over the past four decades, SOEs transitioned from being affiliates of a planned economy to "new SOEs" as modern enterprises under the market economic system. This journey can be roughly divided into the following four stages: the reform to expand SOE autonomy during 1978-1993, the reform to create a modern enterprise system during 1993- 2003, the reform to create a new system for the administration of state assets during 2003- 2013, and the new era of classified SOE reform since 2013. After the four stages, China's SOE reform has made tremendous achievements, particularly since the 18th CPC National Congress. V~th policy readiness for SOE reform in the new era, reform should be carried out in a comprehensive and systematic manner for different types of SOEs in the future.展开更多

First of all, the paper analyses the problems existing in the current incentive and discipline mechanism system in SOEs, including low transparency income and considerable covert income, insider control,corporate governance nominalization and so on; next,the paper explores the causes behind these problems,such as incomplete corporate governance and imperfect market mechanism; finally, the paper proposes a series of solutions from the aspects of incentive mechanism and discipline mechanism.展开更多

基金' From the two dimensions of modem property ownership system and market-based management system, 'haew SOEs" can be defined as SOEs with modem property ownership systems (characterized by equity diversification and standard corporate governance) and market-based management system (characterized by independent operation, decision-making and management). See "Pre 'hminary Study on New SOEs Phenomenon", China Industrial Economics, Vol.6 2005 by Jin Bei and Huang Qunhui.
