China’s top securities analysts and leading public companies were recognized at the 20th Golden Bull Award ceremony held at the western Chinese city of Chengdu on Thursday.
The Golden Bull Award, the most prestigious of its kind at China’s capital market, is presented by China Securities Journal to outstanding players of this country’s fund companies, listed firms and professional analysts.
The ceremony on Thursday honored 92 professionals from 23 Chinese securities dealers for their superb analytical work last year. Another five research teams each received an award for their great teamwork, including Guotai Junan Securities Co. Ltd., Haitong Securities Co., Ltd., GF Securities Co., Ltd., Tianfeng Securities Co., Ltd. and Industrial Securities Co., Ltd.
The consulting services sector has evolved into an indispensable part of China’s securities market, helping securities dealers to bring in clients, expand business and enhance competitiveness, said Ge Wei, president of China Fortune Media Group, at the ceremony.

“China’s securities consulting sector now sees new development opportunities as reforms of its financial market take hold and internationalization of its capital market gathers momentum,” he said.
The Golden Bull Award also went to China’s public companies for their robust performances as well as their senior managers with significant contributions.
Among them was Yu Liang, chairman of real estate giant China Vanke Co., Ltd. listed at the A-share and H-share markets, who highlighted the important role of the securities market in his company’s development.
Without the help of China’s securities market, it would have been impossible for Vanke to develop from a small business into one of the top 500 companies in the world, he said.
