Enterprises with state-invested capital (referred to as F1 enterprise for short) include SOEs (enterprises with 100% charter capital held by the State and enterprises in which the State holds more than 50% of charter capital or total voting shares) and enterprises with 50% or less of charter capital held by the State.
F1 enterprise fully implements the rights and obligations of the owner in accordance with the Law on Enterprises for enterprises with their own capital contribution (referred to as F2 enterprise). The State and the owner’s representative agency of F1 enterprise do not directly interfere in the operation of F2 enterprise.
For an F2 enterprise operating in the form of a one-member limited liability company with 100% charter capital owned by F1 enterprise, the State and the owner’s representative agency of the F1 enterprise have adjusted regulations to ensure the rights and interests such as regulations on corporate governance, distribution of after-tax profits, decentralization of authority to decide on investment.
