Abstract: This paper investigates the performance changes of 390 state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in China during 2000-2008 with the existence of share issue privatisation (SIP), and analyses the macro and micro determinants of these changes. We find that SIP significantly improves SOEs' output and efficiency, and the performance changes vary along with different macro and micro factors. Economic growth, industry regulations, regional marketisation, institutional investors, and equity refinancing are positively related to performance changes. However, capital market development, control of large shareholders, contest of shareholders, and capital occupation exhibit significant negative impacts on firms#39; performance changes.
