Open the column
In recent years, my country’s market supervision authorities have continued to deepen the reform of the commercial system, continuously optimize the business environment, actively carry out targeted assistance actions for small, medium and micro enterprises, and strive to create sufficient market space for the development of various enterprises, including private enterprises.
At present, the number of registered market entities in my country has increased from 55 million in 2012 to 146 million at present, an increase of nearly 1.6 times.
At the same time, the ranking of China's business environment among 190 economies in the world has jumped from 91st in 2012 to 31st in 2020.
Numerous figures have repeatedly shown that my country’s market environment is full of vitality, providing huge opportunities for the development of various enterprises... For this reason, this newspaper has a special column today to reflect in depth the continuous optimization of the business environment by market regulators at all levels to help small, medium and micro enterprises. Please pay attention to the development of enterprises and private enterprises.
On September 3, the Zhengzhou Municipal Market Supervision Bureau explored the establishment of a market supervision and optimization business environment "Shitong" platform formally launched.
The platform focuses on the business environment blockages, pain points, and difficult issues of social concern, enterprise concern, and mass concern, and responds to the expectations of the masses and enterprises in a timely manner, and escorts the optimization of the business environment.
Zhengzhou's latest move is a microcosm of the continuous optimization of the business environment by the market supervision department.
On July 10, the "Seminar on Cultivating Market Entities and Optimizing the Business Environment" sponsored by the Development Research Center of the State Council was held in Beijing.
The data from the seminar shows that the ranking of China's business environment among 190 economies in the world has jumped from 91st in 2012 to 31st in 2020, an increase of 60 places in 8 years.
This achievement is inseparable from my country's continuous deepening of the reform of the commercial system and the optimization of the business environment.
From creating a relaxed and convenient market access environment, to providing convenient and efficient government services, to creating a fair and orderly market competition environment, and finally, many places implement market supervision without penalties for minor violations, etc., all for market business The optimization of the environment has pressed the "accelerator", which has effectively increased the confidence of the enterprise and the vitality of the entire market.
Fast entry and smooth exit, convenient in both directions
On July 22, Lawson (Beijing) Co., Ltd. applied for the business license of "Metro Convenience Branch" at the Market Supervision Bureau of Chaoyang District, Beijing.
This is not an ordinary business license, it is the first "one city, one license" business license in Beijing.
According to the person in charge of the Registration Section of the Market Supervision Bureau of Chaoyang District, Beijing, the "one city, one license" reform has provided enterprises with more free and convenient examination and approval services.
According to this model, the main body of the market in Beijing only needs to apply for a business license and record the names and addresses of all branches on the business license of the head office.
This change greatly simplifies the steps and procedures of enterprise registration and reduces the cost of license maintenance.
This is the latest exploration of the market supervision department to carry out the facilitation reform of market entity registration, shorten the licensing time limit, simplify the processing process, and reduce the burden on enterprises.
In recent years, various regions have continued to relax the registration requirements for corporate residences (business premises), allowing "multiple locations for one site" and "multiple locations for one site" to create a flexible and relaxed environment for innovation and entrepreneurship.
At the same time, my country has fully achieved the goal of the entire process of business opening, and the average business startup time has been compressed to less than 4 working days.
While encouraging legal market entities to quickly enter the market to participate in fair competition and transactions, the market supervision department also created simple cancellation systems to allow some market entities to exit the market in a timely manner to optimize the industrial structure, activate market resources, and maintain development vitality.
Chen Jie, director of the Commercial Law Office of the Institute of Law of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that the "Regulations of the People’s Republic of China on the Administration of Market Entities Registration" promulgated on August 24 promptly introduced a simple deregistration method to provide market entities that meet specific circumstances with an efficient and smooth exit from the market. The legal supply has also opened up new ideas for solving the problem of "difficulty in writing off" that has been prominent in the market for a long time.
The service is better and the efficiency is higher
In August of this year, the person in charge of Jiangsu Yangzhou Zhehang Forklift Sales Service Co., Ltd. has been worrying about the replacement of special equipment installation permits due to the lockdown of the residential area.
It is reported that the company is mainly engaged in the special equipment installation business, but the company's special equipment installation license is about to expire. If the license is not renewed, the company's production and operation cannot be carried out.
At this time, after he saw the notice on Yangzhou to optimize the administrative examination and approval service during the epidemic period, he tried to call for consultation.
Unexpectedly, in the case of "no meeting", Yangzhou City Market Supervision Bureau completed the certification and issuance for him in the approval system as quickly as possible, ensuring the normal operation of the company.
In recent years, market regulatory authorities in many places have implemented the reform measures of "no-face approval", and realized approval matters to be handled online as much as possible, which has brought great convenience to enterprises.
In Beijing, enterprise start-up has fully entered the "one era" of "one form to fill in, one online submission, one window to handle, one day to complete, and one credit for universal use".
In Fujian, the Provincial Market Supervision Bureau implements an online “one-network service” model, and implements online “one-form fill-in” applications for enterprise registration, official seal engraving, application for invoices and tax control equipment, and employee insurance registration. Realize "approval does not meet, do not have to run".
At the same time, the offline "one-window service" service is optimized. The Fujian Provincial Market Supervision Bureau, in conjunction with relevant departments, integrates service resources, integrates application materials, re-engineers the collaborative handling process, and implements "one-window receipt and one-window handling" for enterprise start-up matters. Mode, realize that the applicant can submit the application offline "one window", the window on-site or through the delivery method to receive the application at a time.
Liu Junhai, director of the Institute of Business Law of Renmin University of China, said that the services of market supervision and other departments have become better and more efficient, which can not only arouse people's entrepreneurial enthusiasm, but also enable enterprises to grow and expand better.
Supervision has measures, law enforcement has temperature
"In optimizing the business environment, my country has not only gradually relaxed market access standards, lowered entry barriers and costs, but also encouraged market entities to follow market competition laws, actively participate in market competition, and guide and urge the market through self-discipline and heterogeneous methods. The main body operates in compliance." said Ye Lin, a professor of law at Renmin University of China.
Xiong Maoping, deputy director of the State Administration for Market Regulation, said that in order to adapt to the regulatory changes brought about by the liberalization of access, the market supervision department has effectively changed the supervision concept, vigorously reformed and innovated the supervision method, and promoted the shift from focusing on pre-approval to focusing on supervision during and after the event.
"The company’s annual inspection has been changed to the company’s annual report publicity, a national corporate credit information publicity system has been established and widely used, and systems such as corporate information publicity, a list of business abnormalities, and a list of seriously illegal and untrustworthy enterprises have been established. The joint punishment of corporate credit supervision has achieved remarkable results. "Double random, one open" supervision as the basic means, based on credit supervision and'Internet + supervision', and a new supervision mechanism supplemented by key supervision has basically taken shape." Xiong Maoping said.
Taking Beijing as an example, the city combines the construction of a comprehensive law enforcement team of market supervision departments to give full play to the effectiveness of comprehensive law enforcement, and increase anti-monopoly and anti-unfair competition, intellectual property infringement and counterfeiting, product quality, special equipment, measurement supervision, standardization, certification and recognition In order to maintain fairness, orderliness, harmony and stability in the market order, and protect the lives, health and safety of the people, the law enforcement and handling of cases in areas such as food and drugs, and illegal charges involving enterprises.
At the same time, as the first government department in Beijing to implement a fault-tolerant and corrective mechanism for minor violations, the Beijing Municipal Market Supervision Bureau insists on monitoring in accordance with the law, ensuring that law enforcement is well-founded, and the procedures are legal, and minor violations are corrected in a timely manner. Market entities that have not caused harmful consequences shall not be subject to administrative penalties, and they shall adopt measures such as ordering corrections, criticism and education, admonishment and interviews to promote their operations in compliance with laws and regulations.
Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Shandong, Guangxi, Hainan and other places have also issued regulations on non-punishment for minor violations in the field of market supervision, reflecting the temperature of law enforcement.
