The ACFIC is a non-governmental chamber of commerce established in 1953.[4]: 167 The ACFIC was established to advance the Communist Party's interests and promote the party's policies among private entrepreneurs.[4]: 167
From November 2002 to 2012, the ACFIC had been led by ChairmanHuang Mengfu (Chinese:黄孟复), who, like his predecessors, was also a vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference National Committee, ranking as anational leader of China. His predecessor wasJing Shuping, founder of thefirst private bank in modern China and the son of a well-known entrepreneur of the late Qing Dynasty.[citation needed]
The first vice-chairman of the ACFIC is Quan Zhezhu (Chinese:全哲洙), a deputy minister of the United Front Department originally fromJilin. The ACFIC has another 23 vice-chairpersons, most of them private entrepreneurs.[5]
The ACFIC is led by a ministerial-level CCP secretary and chairman. The chairman has usually been a member of theChina National Democratic Construction Association, also serving as avice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.[6] ACFIC leadership is chosen through consultation between the CCP and private enterprise.[7] The ACFIC is a constituent of the CPPCC and is allocated seats to the NPC.[8] ACFIC seeks to influence policy through submitting proposals to the CPPCC, a process which requires relevant government ministries to investigate the proposals and prepare a formal response.[4]: 167
More than 3,000 regional federations of industry and commerce (FIC) have been established in allprovinces andprefectures and mostcounties of China. The relationship between ACFIC and the regional FIC is described as a role of guidance, but the statute of ACFIC is also valid for the regional federations.[9]
In September 2020, the CCP announced that it would establish more party committees in regional FICs, and would arrange a special liaison between them and the CCP.[10]
