Abstract:
The development of China’s Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have achieved remarkable results, but the
exploration and reform of key issues have also entered into the deep water area. Certain principles specified in the report of the
20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China should be taken as the long-term value orientation for the development of
REITs. First, the development of REITs should focus more on promoting the high-quality development of the real economy. More
attention shall be paid to mobilizing the enthusiasm of original stakeholders, rationalizing the use of recovered funds, regulating the
development of social capital, and securing the compliance of project management. Second, the development of REITs should be
people-centered and mainly serve the long-term investors and value investors. Persist in conducting investor education and market
cultivation, checking asset quality, simplifying product logic, and optimizing operation management. Third, the development of
REITs should better reflect Chinese characteristics and be closer to the reality of reform and development. Treat the problems in
the reform with an inclusive attitude, broaden the scope of issuance at a reasonable pace, develop and revitalize the stock market
with diversified ideas, and increase policy support with a courageous spirit.
