SHENZHEN, China, Dec. 14 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Intermost Corporation

(OTC Bulletin Board: IMOT), a leading electronic online equity exchange

service provider in China, brought the news from the China Securities

Regulatory Commission (CSRC) that “the construction of a Multi-Layer Capital

Market is an important task at present”, which was said by Shang Fulin,

Chairman of the CSRC at the Fifth Forum on the Small and Medium Enterprises

Financing. The Chairman’s statement indicated the determination of the

Chinese government to develop the Multi-Layer Capital Market, including the

Growth Enterprise Market (GEM) and the Equity Exchange Market (EEM).

The China Multi-Layer Capital Market consists of three layers: first, the

main board market, i.e. the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges, where

stocks and shares of listed companies are issued and exchanged; second, the

Small and Medium Enterprise board (SME board), which was established in the

Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2004, and will develop into the second board

market; third, the Over-the-Counter exchange market which includes an Agency

Share Transfer System, and the Equity Exchange Market which includes over two

hundred equity exchange institutions in China. Having undergone years of

lopsided development in the China capital market, the supervision department

has realized the importance of the Growth Enterprise Market, the

Over-the-Counter exchange market and the Equity Exchange Market. Only the

full development of these markets can meet the financing needs of small and

medium enterprises and the huge investment needs of capital.

Mr. Xiangxiong Deng, acting CEO of the Intermost Corporation said, “Any

mature capital market consists of more than a main board market. China’s

rapid economic development is calling for the Multi-Layer Capital Market, of

which the Equity Exchange Market is the fundamental basis. The Intermost

Corporation has captured the leading position in the fast-moving Equity

Exchange Market. Mr. Shang’s presentation gave indication that the Chinese

government will exert best efforts to develop the Equity Exchange Market. We

are well prepared and will seize every opportunity to strengthen our leading

market position.”
