- Shanghai Securities Exchange will support listing high-quality technology companies that have made breakthroughs in key areas, according to a statement on its website. The exchange will enhance refinancing, mergers and acquisitions, equity incentives, and share reductions, while also guiding private equity and venture capital funds to invest in hard tech and start-ups, the statement added.
- Several Chinese banks have tightened rules on dollar wealth management products after quotas filled up, 21st Century Business Herald has reported. An insider at one institution said customers’ subscription amount for the day can no longer exceed the redemption amount from the previous day and the bank will not proactively promote foreign currency wealth management products. Last year, dollar wealth management products averaged over 5% return, with demand increasing after recent rate cuts on dollar deposits, the paper noted.
