Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox company Шаблон:Chinese Central Huijin Investment Co., Ltd. is a Chinese sovereign fund formerly owned by the government of the People's Republic of China. Established in 2003, five years later it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Investment Corporation, with its own Board of Directors and Board of Supervisors.[1] Central Huijin's principal shareholder rights are exercised on behalf of the State Council.[2] Central Huijin is an organization by which the Chinese government can act as a shareholder for the "big four" state-owned banks, thereby improving corporate governance and initiating reforms of the banking industry.[3]

History

China's first sovereign fund, Central Huijin was established in 2003.[4]Шаблон:Rp It was created as a special purpose vehicle incorporated as a limited liability company.[4]Шаблон:Rp Its mission was to recapitalize China's banks.[4]Шаблон:Rp Researcher Zongyuan Zoe Liu writes that using a sovereign fund like Central Huijin gave "the CPC the maximum degree of flexibility to decide when it would leave the market to its own devices and when it would forcefully intervene to protect the state's interest."[4]Шаблон:Rp Between 2003 and 2006, Central Huijin functioned as a quasi-state-owned private equity fund.[4]

In 2005, the State Council approved the Comprehensive Plan for the Consolidation of Brokerage Firms, with the goal of implementing new regulatory mechanisms and rooting out misconduct in the securities field.[4]Шаблон:Rp Central Huijin wholly-owned subsidiary Jianyin Investment, along with the China Securities Investor Protection Fund, were tasked by the State Council with restructuring Chinese brokerages.[4]Шаблон:Rp During the period 2004-2007, Central Huijin and Jianyin Investment acquired controlling stakes in ten large Chinese brokerage firms, totaling at that time one-third of the Chinese securities industry.[4]Шаблон:Rp This in turn gave Central Huijin's parent institution, the People's Bank of China, significant power in the securities industry despite not having formal legal oversight.[4]Шаблон:Rp Central Huijin's track record of restructuring financial institutions has largely been viewed as a success.[4]Шаблон:Rp

Central Huijin's role has now expanded beyond its original mission.[4]Шаблон:Rp In 2008, Central Huijin Investment was acquired from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange by the China Investment Corporation for roughly $67 billion.[5] It manages more than two-thirds of CIC's assets.[4]Шаблон:Rp Central Huijin functions as the "shareholder in chief" of the entire financial sector, a role that allows the state to participate in the market consistent with global norms of corporate ownership structure without letting go of state oversight of strategic enterprises and sectors.[4]Шаблон:Rp

Central Huijin indirectly supports the Belt and Road Initiative through its support of domestic financial institutions, such as policy banks or state-owned commercial banks, which in turn fund BRI projects.[4]Шаблон:Rp

In December 2019, Central Huijin bailed out Hengfeng Bank.[4]Шаблон:Rp
