Description
Summary:This Selected Issues paper analyzes state-owned enterprise (SOE) development and reform in China. The paper discusses the role of state ownership in the Chinese economy, providing a 'snapshot' of key features of the state sector, and a review of the growth, efficiency, and profitability of SOEs.

The paper also examines banking sector development and policy issues in China.
