1. There are two kinds of foundations in China, public foundations and non-public foundations.
2. According to the real-time statistics of the data center of the Foundation Center Network, on February 3, 20 16, there were 5,545 registered foundations nationwide, an increase of 674 over the same period in 20 15, with an annual growth rate of 13.84%. Among them, there are 1565 public foundations in China, accounting for 28% of the total number of registered foundations in China; There are 3,980 non-public offering foundations, accounting for 72% of the total number of registered foundations in China. Compared with 20 15, the proportion of non-public offering foundations in the total number of registered foundations in China has increased by 4%.
3. From the growth trend of the number of foundations, it can be seen that after the adoption of the Charity Law, the growth rate of the number of public foundations has dropped significantly; At the same time, the decentralization of the approval authority for the registration and establishment of non-public offering foundations and the cancellation of the requirements of the competent business departments have further lowered the registration threshold and greatly accelerated the development of non-public offering foundations.
4. Non-public offering foundations in China have risen rapidly, with huge development space and unbalanced regional development; The purpose began to diversify, but it was not obvious; It is basically a project operation type rather than a public welfare funding type. The governance level of non-public offering foundations faces outstanding difficulties; Specialization, low level of specialization, need to establish a service system; Independence faces many constraints such as capital and administration, and its independence ability is insufficient; Many institutional obstacles still exist.
5. The healthy development of non-public offering foundations needs the vigorous promotion of many government departments and social fields: guiding the development from operation to funding; Accelerate the establishment of industry service institutions and promote division of labor and cooperation; Strengthen information disclosure and create a unified and convenient information disclosure platform; Establish and improve the evaluation mechanism with the government as the main body and the participation of non-governmental evaluation forces; Vigorously promote the professionalization and professionalization of employees; Constantly change the related institutional obstacles.
