  Regional development of top 500 companies is uneven

The uneven regional development of Chinese enterprises has formed a situation of “one city dominates”. In 2021, China’s Fortune 500 companies are mainly located in Beijing, the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta. Among them, Beijing has 61 companies, ranking first, accounting for 40% of the total number of top 500 companies in the country. As a pilot area for reform and opening up, Guangdong has attracted a large number of enterprises based on its geographical location and policy advantages. In 2021, there are 15 enterprises on the list, ranking second. There is a lack of leading enterprises in the western region, and there is a big gap in development with the eastern cities.

Part of the reason for Beijing’s “one city dominance” is that the private sector accounts for a relatively large proportion. In the aggregate of all the world‘s top 500 companies in my country, state-owned enterprises still occupy the dominant position. In 2021, among the top 500 companies in my country, there are 95 state-owned enterprises, 34 private enterprises, and 14 Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan enterprises.
