Conducting high-quality mergers and acquisitions as part of deepening state-owned enterprise reforms [2][6]. 2. Using listed companies as a new lever for precise investment attraction [6]. 3. Promoting industry integration and upgrading to create leading enterprises in key sectors [2][6]. Group 3: Industry Trends - The trend of local SOEs controlling listed companies is gaining momentum across various regions, including Hubei, Anhui, Zhejiang, and Guangdong, as a means for industrial upgrading and fiscal transformation [7][10]. - The "M&A Six Guidelines" policy is enhancing the activity level of mergers and acquisitions [7]. - Local SOEs are increasingly viewing listed companies as platforms for capital operations and industry integration, rather than solely as investment tools [10].
