One of the biggest challenges facing European companies in China is the perpetuation of China’s ‘economic caste system’, which distinguishes companies by ownership, and favours state-owned over private and local over foreign. This biased economic structure pits finance-starved private companies against the unnaturally enhanced, inefficient SOEs that are at the core of China’s structural problems. The continuation of this system is doing little to inspire the European business communities’ long-term confidence in China’s economy.

Since the establishment of the Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone in 1990, the State Council has approved the set-up of over 160 Customs Special Supervision Areas (CSSAs) in terms of bonded zones, export processing zones, bonded logistic parks, bonded ports, comprehensive bonded zones and cross-border industrial zones. Each of these areas enjoys different preferential benefits, is regulated by different policies or rules and runs different processes.
