In order to implement the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China
the Ministry of Water Resources held a party group meeting to emphasize the need to promote the building of the water rights trading market
strengthen the reform of the water conservancy investment and financing system
and promote high-quality development of water conservancy. Water-extracting loan financing is an important means to achieve this goal. In the water rights trading market
“water-extracting loan” financing activities are one of the important paths to activate water resources assets and develop green finance. Using water-extracting rights as collateral can help companies enhance the value of their water resources assets and solve financing difficulties. This article summarizes the current development status of China's “water-extracting loan” financing model
and concludes that there are still problems in the operation of “water-extracting loan”
such as vague legal definition of water-extracting rights
inconsistent financing guarantee methods
inadequate financing business supervision mechanisms
and insufficient incentive measures. Based on this
it is proposed that in the future
legislation should be improved to clarify the legal attributes of water rights
financing guarantee methods should be standardized
regulatory systems and incentive mechanisms should be improved to effectively promotewater conservancy investment and financing reforms.
