The Group's subsidiary Guomao Co., Ltd. was officially listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange on December 8, 2006 (stock name "Jiangsu Guotai", stock code "002091"). In December 2016, the significant asset restructuring of the group was successfully completed, and core resources such as trade supply chain business, internet e-commerce business, and financial investment business under the group were comprehensively integrated. They were included in listed companies, increasing the securitization rate of state-owned assets and opening up long-term growth space for future development.
The future goal of Cathay Pacific is to use the supply chain as the core carrier, based on domestic and international market resources, to build Cathay Pacific into a first-class international comprehensive trading company with Chinese characteristics that integrates "trade, industry, research and development, design, and capital".
