May 10 - Red-chip companies, or mainland firms incorporated outside the mainland and listed in Hong Kong, are expected to list on the yuan-denominated A-share market by the end of this year, say Hong Kong-based analysts1.
If the A-share listing of these firms, at least 20 percent of whose stake is held by the State or State-owned entities2, materializes, it will help cool down the red-hot Shanghai market by providing more quality shares, they say.
"We believe mainland regulators will clear all legal hurdles3 soon," said Ronald Wan4, managing director and head of investment banking5 at Bank of Communications Securities. "The listing for the first (batch6 of) red chips will come by the end of the year."
Ricky Tam, chairman of Hong Kong Institution of Investors7, also said mainland regulators seem eager to attract more quality companies to the A-share market.
"The listing of red chips on the mainland will provide alternative investment channels for domestic punters," Tam said. "That will definitely help cool down the frenzy8 in Shanghai. The central government is eager to ease the excess liquidity9 in the market."
There are about 85 red chips listed on the main board of the Hong Kong bourse with a total market capitalization of about HK$3.1 billion.
Red chips have long been excluded from the domestic market because their flotation involves technical complications.
China Mobile and PetroChina have the best chance of being in the first batch of red chips listing on the mainland, given their huge capitalization and reputation.
"China Mobile and PetroChina are very likely to be in the first batch. Technically10 speaking, we don't see any hurdles delaying their listing, especially with the State Council giving its nod."
Market sources say five red chips have been given the green light to float in the A-share market. These are China Mobile, China Netcom Corp, CNOOC, Lenovo and an unidentified electronic components11 producer.
But Tam cautioned that red chips could divert some capital away from mainland shares. "Giants like China Mobile and PetroChina are most likely to join the stream, but we doubt whether Lenovo is large enough to be on the list," Tam said.
Red chips such as China Mobile have so far tried to tap the mainland market through China depository receipts (CDRs). But senior mainland officials now seem more inclined to A-share listing rather than CDRs.
