近年來台商企業赴港上市成為熱門的話題,香港更挟CEPA (Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement,更緊密經貿關係安排)之利頻頻向台商招手,目前台灣政府已逐漸意識到香港政府正積極拉攏台商企業至當地上市之壓力,台灣目前在正規劃台商回台上市方案。 因此本研究就二地資本市場的概況、特性、差異及優劣勢作一比較分析,希冀台商企業的決策者在面臨此一重大決策佈局時,應仔細評估掛牌市場的條件、企業自身的基本要件、經營現況及產業的特性是否能夠配合,使企業能作最完善的上市規劃。 研究結論發現長期以來台灣對大陸投資政策的結果,造成企業在台籌集資金無法妥善用於大陸,使得企業西進受阻,對於經營大陸市場原占有同文同種優勢的台商企業而言,在面臨全球化競爭的經營環境,資金受到限制,使得長期耕耘大陸多年且希冀能在大陸繼續擴充以奠定全球化競爭立足點的台商企業,紛紛轉而尋求其他資本市場平台提供企業成長所需資金。 中國在2001年加入WTO之後,如今不僅是居於全球製造中心的地位,更是台資企業追求成長的兵家必爭之地,未來若台灣主管機關對於吸引海外台商回台上市之政策仍無明顯放寬下,會造成許多以大陸為發展基地的台商企業發展受阻且台商如欲在大中華地區與大陸國、民營企業競爭,就不能局限於台灣單一資本市場之佈局,勢必要在中國、香港,甚至其他地區,尋找證券市場的奧援,因此將造成許多台商因為金流限制與投資架構的調整問題,不得不放棄在台灣上市的機會,轉而尋求對集團佈局最有利的地點上市。 目前台灣政府已逐漸意識到香港政府正積極拉攏台資企業至當地上市之壓力,台灣目前在正規劃台商回台上市方案,未來台灣政府如能設計一個足於誘導台商回台上市方案,在人親土親下,以台灣資本市場制度成熟、低成本及高週轉率的特質,台灣資本市場將成為海外台商優先選擇上市之地點。
Recent economic and political developments in Taiwan and Mainland have attracted many Taiwanese firms to list their stocks in Hong Kong. Sensing this adverse trend, Taiwanese government is trying to devise initiatives to increase Taiwanese firms’ listing in Taiwan. Since Mainland became a member of WTO in 2001, it has become the world’s manufacturing and financial powerhouse. In order to take advantage in this growing markets, Taiwanese firms have to access to a larger capital markets and able to invest in Mainland. This study examines the pros and cons of listing in Taiwan versus in Hong Kong for the purpose of providing guidelines for Taiwanese firms in deciding where to list their stocks. The major conclusion of this study is that restrictions imposed by Taiwanese government on Taiwanese firms’ investment in Mainland have driven many Taiwanese firms to choose Hong Kong to list their stocks because of increased investments in Mainland. The advantages of Taiwan’s capital markets include proper regulations, low costs of listing and high turnover, Twiwanese government can attract firms to list in Taiwan by relaxing restrictions on investing in Mainland.
