一带一路”投资政治风险研究之菲律宾
一带一路投资风险研究之菲律宾发布时间:2015-03-26 14:24:54 来源:中国网作者:黄日涵海佳伟责任编辑:张林编者按:一带一路战略的顺利推进与一带一路国家的国内政局发展密切相关。
由于一路一带地区上的许多国家对外深陷大国博弈的战场,对内面临领导人交接、民主政治转型、民族冲突等多重矛盾,一带一路国家的政治风险已经成为中国国家战略推进与中国企业走出去的最大风险。
因此,对于一带一路国家的政治风险进行分析与评估已经成为当前中国国际问题研究最为急迫的任务之一。
中国网将以每周发布两篇分析文章的方式,对一路一带地区的60余国的政治风险进行简要的概述与分析。
本系列将持续发布30余周,共计60余篇文章。
具体内容主要围绕该国的一般情况、投资环境、政治结构、各方政治势力、相关政治风险以及可能的国家战略动向进行分析。
黄日涵华侨大学海上丝绸之路研究院研究员中国与全球化智库研究员海佳伟加州大学圣地亚哥分校国际关系研究生中菲建交以来,两国关系发展一直很好,双方在处理一些分歧问题上也形成了一些共识。
但是近两年来,两国关系因南海岛礁问题面临严重困难。
中国和菲律宾之间如何重新回到共识的基础上相向而行,成为摆在中菲两国面前的共同难题,目前中国与菲律宾之间进出口总额在2014年再创新高,随着中国企业投资菲律宾力度的加大,如何有效规避南海岛礁争端可能引发的政治风险,成为了“一带一路”投资中的重要考量因素。
一、菲律宾国内政治概况菲律宾是东南亚国家联盟(ASEAN)和亚洲基础设施投资银行(AIIB)主要成员国,也是亚洲太平洋经济合作组织(APEC)21个成员国之一。
根据中国人民共和国外交部菲律宾专题,菲律宾现行宪法于1987年2月2日通过,同年2月11日由总统正式宣布生效。
菲律宾宪法规定行政、立法、司法三权分立。
菲律宾实行总统内阁制,总统是国家元首、政府首脑兼武装部队总司令。
拥有行政权,由选民直接选举产生,任期六年,不得连任,总统无权实施戒严法,无权解散国会,不得任意拘捕反对派;禁止军人干预政治;保障人权,取缔个人独裁统治;进行土地改革。
菲律宾外资投资政策规定
“投资优先计划”IPP,INVESTMENT ZONE AUTHORITY以特殊的优惠待遇,单独管理各类经济区、出口加工区和保税区的国内外投资;此外,菲政府另有禁止外资进入或限定外资比例的行业清单FINL,FOREIGN INVESTMENT NEGATIVE LIST;菲给予外资的优惠政策主要视外资投向的行业和地区而定,与独资或合资企业公司无关;因此外国企业在菲投资,原则上分为申请优惠待遇和不申请优惠待遇两大类,前者必需符合给予优惠待遇的条件,如IPP或PEZA,允许准入的领域十分广泛,几乎涵盖了菲所有行业;后者准入的领域则比较有限;按菲外国投资法规定,外国企业投资为股权投资EQUITY;一个外国投资企业,属外资所有还是菲人所有,股权界限为40%;如外资股权低于或等于40%,为菲人所有;超过40%,为外资所有;另按菲宪法规定,外国人在菲不允许拥有土地所有权,如投资建厂所需,可向菲政府或私人业主租赁,租赁期限为25年,期满后可续租25年;因此最长租赁期限为50年;一、申请优惠待遇的外国投资一投资PEZA所辖的各类经济区、出口加工区和保税区的外国企业,外资可拥有100%股权,但产品必须100%出口;如获批准,可在菲国内销售30%的产品;二投资于BOI每年修改、增补的IPP领域,主要包括以下几个方面:1、先锋领域PIONEER AREAS:在IPP投资范围内,任何行业均有可能视为先锋领域,只要符合下列条件之一:1在菲尚未有过的、已获商业推广的制成品或原料的生产、制造和加工业;但不得是单纯组装或包装项目;2使用某种设计、配方或组合、工艺、加工工序或系统生产菲尚未有过原料或制成品,或是使用上述设计、配方等将某种生产要素、物资或原料转化成菲尚未有的原料或制成品;3从事菲农、林、矿产业的商业开发或经营,包括因地制宜的食品加工工业;有关项目要符合菲农业政策导向,可由BOI单独规划,或与有关部级单位协商立项;4非常规燃料的生产,或使用非常规能源的工业设备的制造;或同类最终产品的生产、制造或加工过程中使用或转化使用了煤或其它非常规燃料,或在同一过程中使用或转化使用了相当比例的菲当地原料;在先锋领域,外国投资企业可拥有100%股权;但BOI特别规定一条:“外资先锋企业应在30年之内或由BOI决定之更长的期限内,使该企业过度为菲人所有,即菲人持股达到60%”;但如该企业产品出口达100%,则不受此规定限制;2、优先领域又称非先锋领域,PREFERRED NON-PIONEER AREAS:在IPP领域内,不满足上述先锋领域条件的所有行业均为优先领域;在优先领域,外国投资企业所持股权限于40%;但如出口达70%,外资持股比例可放宽;3、出口导向企业:外资可持多数股权40%以上,但产品出口必须达70%以上;如为菲人所有,产品出口只须达50%;出口企业包括从事出口的生产、贸易和服务企业公司;4、地区差异投资:菲全国划分为13个行政区划,同一行业在不同的行政区划,或对外资开放,或禁止外资进入;5、扶贫投资导向:投资于菲经济不发达地区及偏远农业省份,给予外国企业的优惠幅度超过上述任何领域,且辅有额外的地方优惠政策;注一“先锋领域”与“优先领域”在IPP中并不单列,一个行业,如不符合“先锋条件”,即属“优先”;3、4、5、项下的投资同此定义;注二IPP领域几乎覆盖了除FINL之外菲所有的制造、加工、服务行业,包括农业领域;此项只能根据投资者的具体意向查询;二、不申请优惠待遇的外国投资一投资于菲出口企业:系指产品或服务包括旅游业的出口达到60%的生产、贸易或服务企业公司,或当地采购产品、60%出口的贸易公司;外国投资在该类企业可拥有100%股权,但不得与FINL发生冲突详见后;该类企业与前述IPP范围内的出口导向企业的主要区别是不享有优惠待遇;但如出口达70%,即使不在IPP范围之内,也可转而申请优惠待遇;二投资于菲国内企业:系指产品或服务100%对菲国内市场销售的生产企业公司,或原注册为出口企业、但其产品出口未达60%出口的企业公司;外国投资在该类企业可拥有100%的股权,但有限定条件:1、不在IPP范围内;2、不得与FINL冲突;3、销售仅限于批发,不得零售;考虑到IPP覆盖范围的广泛,同时又有FINL的限制,实际上留给投资的所谓“国内企业”已十分有限;三投资于限制外资股权的行业FINL:1、外资股权最高限于25%的行业:1私营对外劳务输出公司;2菲地方政府出资的公共设施和维修合同外国贷款或援助的招标项目除外;2、外资股权最高限于30%的行业:广告;3、外资股权最高限于40%的行业:1自然资源勘探、开发和利用如与菲政府签有资金和技术援助协议,外资可拥有100%股权;2私人土地所有权仅限以公司股权形式拥有;3公用事业水、电管理和运行;4教育机构的所有、设立和管理;5从事水稻、玉米的种植和加工;6SEC管理的金融公司;7为菲政府所有或控制的企业、公司、代理机构提供物资和商品的供货合同;8深海商业捕捞;9公寓所有权;10各类资产、信誉及财产评估公司;此外,经菲律宾国家特别部门批准,外资可在如下领域拥有40%的股权:1经菲国家警察署批准,可从事火器、黑色火药、甘油炸药、爆破器材、望远镜及其它类似器材的生产、维修、仓储或生产过程中所需产品及配料的分销;2经菲国防部门批准,外国投资可从事枪支弹药、军舰和军用船只以及类似设备和训练器材、配件的生产、维修、仓储或生产过程中所需产品及配料的分销;3危险药品的生产;4菲法律允许的桑拿、蒸汽浴、按摩诊所等类似行业;5赛马等非赌博形式的博彩业;申请优惠外国投资不申请优惠外国投资----------------------------------------------------------------------------投资领域股权上限出口要求投资领域股权上限出口要求----------------------------------------------------------------------------PEZA

菲律宾税务投资分析

贸工部下属的投资署(BOI)、经济特区管理委员会(PEZA)负责投资政策包括外资政策的实施和管理。
凡在菲律宾营运的国内外公司,只要向菲律宾投资局(the Board of Investments, BOI)注册,且受其监督,即可享有1987 年所制定的综合投资法案(The Omnibus Investments Code of 1987)对投资菲律宾所提供的奖励。
而随着投资法令松绑,除了禁止投资项目外,外国企业基本上可以在菲律宾投资任何产业。
菲律宾的企业型态大致可分为独资、合伙与公司。

一般而言,在设立菲律宾公司时,需符合以下条件:(1)注册资金及条件资本额、股票型态与设立费用在公司设立时,所发行及实收资本额须为核定资本额的25% ,且不可低于5,000 菲币。
公司成立后,若有增减资或发行公司债融资需求,须得到过半数董事同意、三分之二以上股东同意以及证券监理委员会之同意,始可施行。
若公司实收资本额包含现金与现金以外财产者,公司在申请登记时,须检附相关财产契据、财产鉴价报告(财产移转价值须与在税上申报价值相同)、经公证的财产原始或移转登记、过去与目前财产税支付凭证等资料。
此外若其他债权人对该财产享有留置权(lien or encumbrances),则须检附其他债权人的同意书。
菲律宾公司可同时发行多种类型股票,且无股票最低面额的限制。
即使如此,普通股与特别股仍为最常见的分类,又分别称为「A 股」与「B 股」。
一般来说,只有菲律宾人可持有A 股,外国人只能持有B 股。

第一节宏观环境律宾最大政党。
首都设在马尼拉。
阿罗约总统执政以来,提出一系列改革措施,发展经济,增加就业,国内生产总值保持了5%左右的速度增长。
同时政府出台多项措施,惩治腐败,打击恐怖主义,推动国内和平进程,整顿社会治安,旨在构建稳定的社会秩序。
目前,菲律宾已在反腐、反恐行动以及与反政府组织的谈判中均取得一定进展,国内政治、安全形势趋于好转。
受政府腐败、频繁的兵变、恐怖组织和反政府武装组织威胁等因素的影响,菲律宾政治也存在较大的不确定性。
长期以来,腐败问题是困扰菲律宾政府的痼疾。
阿罗约连任后,亲自领导由11人组成的“总统价值观形成委员会”,主抓政府打击贪污腐败的行动,以整顿官僚主义。
但这些措施并未取得实质效果。
在国际透明组织每年公布的各国腐败排行榜上,菲律宾总是处于最腐败的国家之列。

菲律宾的外贸经济政策讲解
下面就介绍一下菲律宾的外贸经济政策:菲律宾是实行市场经济的国家,对国内工商业和对外贸易、国内投资和外国投资均实行统一的管理、施行统一的法律法规。
该国自1979年加入关贸总协定,1995年又成为WTO的创始成员国后,WTO的有关规定和原则成为菲律宾在国际贸易竞争中保护本国利益和解决贸易争端的法律依据。
从目前来看,菲律宾涉及对外贸易和利用外资的法律主要包括以下三大类:1、公平贸易法律和法规(Fair Trade Laws)该类法律法规的主要目的是为了维护国内市场的公平竞争和保护本国消费者的合法权益,主要包括有关在菲律宾市场上销售的商品标饰的规定(RA ACT 71)、有关从事零售业的规定(RA ACT 1180)、有关保护消费者权益的规定(RA ACT 7394)、有关稳定生活必需品价格的规定(RA ACT 7581)、有关推动外国投资商业的规定(RA ACT 7042)以及违反上述规定的处罚办法。
另外,菲律宾政府最近又颁布了放宽外国企业在菲投资零售业的规定(RA ACT 8762)和广泛提高对产品的环保要求的法规(RA ACT 8749)。
2、根据WTO原则和规则制定的有关贸易保护法规该类法规的主要目的在于依据WTO的有关原则最大限度地保护本国工业和市场免受外国商品的冲击,其主要包括反倾销法(RA ACT 8752)、反补贴法(RA ACT 8751)和安全保障措施法(RA ACT 8800)。
3、投资类法规为了创造一个良好的投资环境,使菲律宾成为外商投资的理想地区,菲律宾政府陆续颁布了一系列吸引外国投资的法律法规,这主要包括颁布于1991年的放开外商投资限制的外国投资法(RA ACT 8179)和吸引外商投资于经济区的特别经济区法案,以及投资租赁法和为在出口部门提供投资优惠的出口发展法等法律法规。
