Original title: Two sessions | Zhu Dingjian, Member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference: Proposal to empower the tourism industry through financial reform and innovation
Our reporter Chen Jingbin reports from Guangzhou
The Two National Conferences of 2021 will be held in Beijing on March 4-5.
The “China Business Daily” reporter learned that at the inauguration of the National People’s Congress, Zhu Dingjian, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, president and CEO of Mission Hills Group, carefully prepared 5 proposals .
Judging from Zhu Dingjian’s resume, Zhu Dingjian has been involved in large-scale investments in the tourism and sports and leisure industries on the mainland for more than 10 years, and has extensive experience in developing the industries. of tourism and sports and leisure. This year, Zhu Dingjian’s proposal for tourism development is the most important, yes, it is recommended to promote financial reform and innovation in the tourism industry.
At the time when the Central Economic Work Conference established “doing good work on peak carbon and carbon neutrality” as the top eight work priorities in 2021, Zhu Dingjian also put forward innovative suggestions for the development of related work. ; it is recommended to gradually deploy carbon demons throughout the country. Carbon neutralization work and spikes will make a breakthrough ASAP. In addition, Zhu Dingjian also presented constructive views on sports culture.
Financial reform and innovation empower tourism
Tourism is now one of the strategic pillar industries of my country’s national economy. As a people’s livelihood industry, tourism carries with it people’s longing for an ever better life.
However, Zhu Dingjian noted that with the improvement and development of the domestic tourism industry, the current financial services and financial tools can no longer meet some of the real needs of tourism development in the new economic era and in general, it is difficult for tourism. companies to obtain sustainable financing channels.
In this sense, Zhu Dingjian suggested boosting the tourism industry through financial innovation models. Specifically, it will promote the tourism industry to make new contributions to the internal economic circulation of my country from various aspects such as relaxing the listing conditions of tourism companies, promoting the securitization of tourism assets and breaking the financing barriers of tourism companies.
Regarding the relaxation of listing conditions for tourism companies, Zhu Dingjian believes that for a long time, tourism companies, especially large-scale scenic spot tourism companies, have not had much room for imagination of investment in the capital market due to its huge investment. long payback period and relatively low benefits. Very popular.
In this regard, Zhu Dingjian suggested that for tourism companies to go public, the government should give more policy dividends to help the most prominent tourism companies rush towards A-share IPOs. In addition, in addition to supporting tourism companies to list and raise funds on the main board and the ChiNext market, it is recommended that the government introduce policies to encourage financial institutions to use the agency’s share transfer system (new third board market ), locally owned. Rights exchanges and cultural exchanges plus Platform, adequate financial services tailored for tourism enterprises, increase the proportion of tourism enterprises listed on the market, and promote better development of the tourism industry.
In terms of promoting the securitization of tourism assets, Zhu Dingjian believes that it is increasingly difficult for tourism companies to obtain loans from banks according to ordinary procedures to meet their own investment and development needs. In addition to borrowing credit, development loans, and other debt loans from banks and other financial institutions, asset securitization is currently a more suitable financing method for tourism businesses. However, due to related reasons such as asset confirmation and continued income protection in the tourism industry, the credit ratings of many tourism businesses are often difficult to meet bond issuance standards and difficult to achieve. progress in the actual application of asset securitization. in the tourism industry.
In this regard, Zhu Dingjian suggested that the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission and other financial management institutions issue joint policies to encourage banks and other financial institutions to develop a loan evaluation system specifically for the tourism industry, so that tourism companies cannot rely on the credit of the main body and the credit of corporate legal persons, but mainly The financing is supported by specific assets to promote the securitization of assets in the tourism industry.
In terms of breaking down financial barriers for tourism businesses, Zhu Dingjian found that current bank loans for working capital are generally one year, rarely more than three years. Many fixed asset financing projects are divided into several stages for their implementation.
In this regard, Zhu Dingjian suggested that financial institutions can study the appropriate extension of the tourism enterprise working capital loan cycle, and development loans for fixed asset projects will be issued in accordance with the tourism project preparation and planning. . For example, if the tourism project is divided into two phases, the first phase The funds for the project have been launched at the same time, and the funds for the second and subsequent projects can be followed in time according to the preparation and planning.
Regarding the large number of small, medium and micro enterprises in the tourism industry, Zhu Dingjian suggested that the current state preferential loan policy for small and micro enterprises in the real economy should be extended to small, medium and micro tourism enterprises already financial services. and support that “should be expanded” should be expanded. Support and encourage financial institutions to increase pure credit lines for small and medium tourism companies, and carry out innovations focused on access to clients, asset evaluation, mortgage guarantees and credit procedures. At the same time, they encourage insurance companies, guarantee companies and other small and medium-sized companies that do not have physical assets Tourism companies grant credit enhancement guarantees to solve the financing difficulties of small and medium tourism companies due to insufficient guarantees .
Promote the pilot “Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutral”
In addition to proposing to promote financial reform and innovation in the tourism industry, Zhu Dingjian made a constructive proposal for one of the top eight work priorities this year proposed by the Central Economic Work Conference: “Doing a good job in the carbon peak and carbon neutrality “.
In recent years, the structure of energy production and consumption in my country has been continuously optimized. In 2019, the intensity of my country’s carbon emissions was reduced by 48.1% compared to 2005, and significant achievements have been made in reducing low-carbon consumption. President Xi Jinping first proposed at the 75th United Nations General Assembly that China will strive to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and strive for carbon neutrality by 2060.
However, Zhu Dingjian noted that my country has a vast territory, and the level of development and resource endowment of different regions are different. To achieve the above objectives it will be a systematic and huge project.
In this regard, Zhu Dingjian suggested selecting economically developed areas such as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the Yangtze River Delta to implement pilot projects, introduce carbon max and carbon neutral plans as soon as possible, and strive to achieve carbon peaks during the period of the “XIV Five Year Plan” Provide systemic solutions and expertise for the entire country.
Specifically, Zhu Dingjian suggested that pilot regions and cities should first clearly formulate specific targets and timetables for energy conservation, reducing emissions, and increasing the use of green and clean energy, as well as time targets for achieving carbon peaks. and carbon neutrality as early as possible. as possible. On the one hand, the “subtraction” of emission control and energy saving is done carefully, the pilot program summarizes the practices and clear measures and action plans are formulated to reduce emissions and save energy for different industries and cities. . On the other hand, the “addition” of increasing the supply of new energy is made according to local conditions, and it is recommended to vigorously support the research and development of new cutting-edge energy technologies in terms of finance and taxes.
Second, accelerate the establishment of a national carbon market system and include energy-consuming, high-emission petrochemical, building materials, steel, paper and civil aviation industries and companies in the national carbon trading market. soon as possible. At the same time, it is recommended to continue lowering the threshold for companies to enter the carbon market in pilot cities. For example, Guangdong currently establishes emission control companies as industrial companies with annual emissions of 10,000 tons or more, and Shenzhen establishes it. as companies with annual emissions of more than 3,000 tons. Consider further lowering the emissions threshold, including more companies in the carbon trading market, and expanding the scope of emissions control.
To complete the overall goal of peak carbon and carbon neutrality, not only government guidance and industry investment are needed, but also the active participation of the entire society. In this regard, Zhu Dingjian believes that it is necessary to establish an inclusive low-carbon living platform for residents of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to encourage residents to participate in low-emission reduction in carbon. Set detailed scores for travel, household water and energy consumption, purchase of new energy vehicles, recycling of old objects, purchase of energy-saving appliances, participation in green activities, etc., and develop low-carbon living points for individuals and families. Give reward.
In addition to the above proposals, Zhu Dingjian also made suggestions and suggestions on sports culture, suggested reforming the traditional teaching mode of sport, teaching classes at different levels, and improving the international competitiveness of cultural trade through multilateral efforts in terms of cultural competitiveness. . In addition, Zhu Dingjian also suggested that the People’s Heroes Memorial Day be established to strengthen national respect and unite people’s hearts.
