The Upcoming Theme Weeks of SZSE 2023 Annual Performance Briefings Focus on Strengthening Capital Market Foundations Through New Quality Productive Forces and Other Drivers

Investors are the foundation of the market, and listed companies are the cornerstone of the market. Recently, SZSE has been thoroughly implementing the guiding principles of the Central Financial Work Conference and the work requirements of CSRC for "two strengthenings and two strictnesses". Taking "improving quality and efficiency to promote development, strengthening the foundation and opening a new chapter" as the key tasks, we guide listed companies to actively hold their 2023 annual performance briefings, thereby promoting the core concept of value investment and long-term investment in the capital market. The 2023 annual performance briefings will be held from mid-April to early June, featuring seven theme weeks, including "Central SOEs: the Strong Foundation", "New Quality Productive Forces: the Main Battlefield", "Private Economy: Advancing to New Stage", "Bay Area Engine: Guangdong's Strong Momentum", "Digital Economy: Smart Power", "Energy Revolution: Green New Opportunities", and "Advanced Manufacturing: Creating the Future". The announcements will comprehensively showcase the companies' performance, operational status, and development strategies from multiple dimensions, addressing investors' latest concerns.
