STAR Market reforms to spur innovation

Ongoing reforms at the tech-focused STAR Market of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, part of China's continued efforts to give more financial support to the private economy, will further spur technology innovation and facilitate highquality economic growth in the country, said experts.

The comments came after two new private economy-focused subindexes were officially launched at the STAR Market on Wednesday.

The SSE STAR Private-owned Enterprises Index will track all private companies trading on the STAR Market.
