Features: A must-read for state-owned enterprises and private enterprises that are already large or about to become large, focusing on institutionalized innovation! · With the rapid development of China's economy, both state-owned enterprises and private enterprises are accelerating their expansion into group, regional, and international scales. However, the corporate governance structure of enterprise groups is the prerequisite and foundation for their healthy development and risk avoidance. Yet, this issue has not been fully resolved either theoretically or practically. The publication of Parent-Subsidiary Governance Structure fills this gap. · Li Yingsheng, President and Editor-in-Chief of Sales and Marketing magazine · Parent-Subsidiary Governance Structure effectively addresses the institutionalized arrangements for top-level management in the group development of state-owned enterprises, offering practical and guiding value. The author possesses extensive experience in managing enterprise groups, providing deeper insights. · Yuan Xiaoning, Deputy General Manager of Shaanxi Investment Group · Chinese enterprises face challenges from the knowledge economy, information economy, and network economy, transitioning from a capital- and technology-oriented development phase to a stage guided by institutions and culture. Therefore, institutionalized innovation has become the most critical core competitiveness. Parent-Subsidiary Governance Structure is the core content of institutionalized innovation, helping business leaders build a structured framework for institutional arrangements. · Li Hongxia, President of the Refractory Materials Research Institute of China Iron and Steel Group · Zhongdi Electric Group is a private joint-stock enterprise. Since its founding in 1990, it has grown at a rate of over 50% annually. Through capital operations and technological innovation, it has become a large-scale group enterprise and a leader in the power industry. However, institutional innovation remains the main bottleneck for its development. Parent-Subsidiary Governance Structure offers valuable insights and is worth reading. · Lu Tingshou, Chairman of Zhongdi Electric Group · Corporate governance is a hot topic in both academia and business discussions, with parent-subsidiary governance being a particularly pressing theoretical and practical issue for group enterprises. This book does not merely discuss parent-subsidiary governance in theoretical terms but systematically, standardly, and procedurally addresses the problem from the operational perspective. Based on China's national conditions, the book categorizes enterprise groups into administrative parent-subsidiary structures and economic parent-subsidiary structures. Administrative parent-subsidiary governance structures provide management paradigms from three aspects: state-owned asset supervision departments, state-owned asset operation companies, and enterprises. These also establish the logical relationships and operational rules of corporate governance for state-owned enterprises. Economic parent-subsidiary governance structures focus on the governance of parent-subsidiary relationships formed through market-oriented group establishment, drawing on standardized corporate governance models from developed countries. The operational rules of these structures are relatively clear. Domestic enterprises can "match the type" to set up governance structures for their group enterprises, achieving the goal-oriented, structural, practical, and purpose-driven design objectives.
