Premier Wen Jiabao said Friday that China aims at a mature
capital market.
"Our goal is very clear. The goal is to build a mature capital
market," Wen said at a press conference following the conclusion of
the annual session of the National People's Congress (NPC), China's
top legislature.
"We will continue to improve the quality of the listed
companies, put in place an open, fair and transparent market system
and strengthen the oversight over the capital market," Wen said in
response to a question about China's stock market.
Wen said China will also encourage timely disclosure of the
information of the stock market and enhance the awareness of
individual investors about the risks of the market.
