Gay and targeted in Uganda: Inside the extreme crackdown on LGBTQ rights_我的网站

原标题:券商行业又迎大规模配股!中金公司抛270亿元募资计划作 者丨雷晨编 辑丨巫燕玲图 源丨图虫9月13日晚间,中金公司发布公告称,拟向原股东配股, 预计募集资金总额不超过270亿元,扣除相关发行费用后拟用于补充资本金支持各项业务发展以及补充其他营运资金。

B |     At a small shelter in Uganda, members of the LGBTQ community seek refuge from persecution after their government enacted one of the world's harshest anti-homosexuality laws earlier this year.Henry, whose full name is being withheld for safety reasons, runs the shelter along with a local clinic he says also serves the general community."Somebody has just called me that they need shelter. He has been evicted, and he's on his way," Henry told ABC News foreign correspondent James Longman.A man named Emmanuel arrives -- he says he hasn't slept in days and is seeking a place to stay to keep him off the streets. Later, he tells ABC News that he's estranged from his family and recently got kicked out of his home after the landlord spotted his boyfriend visiting."Every day that goes by, you feel like it's becoming more like you're in a box," said Emmanuel, whose full name is being withheld for safety reasons."My biggest fear is the police can find me anywhere," Emmanuel said.Despite that fear and the risk of showing his face, Emmanuel said he's tired of hiding."I wouldn't want to live in the fear. I'll stand in, to be that person who is not scared of being who I really am," Emmanuel said.Uganda has effectively made being gay illegal of what the law calls "aggravated homosexuality" -- up to life in prison or even execution. Someone simply advocating for gay rights could serve up to 20 years behind bars. Renting up a room to a gay couple could result in a 7-year prison sentence.Critically, failing to report same-sex acts to the police is also a crime, creating a culture of suspicion that people like Henry and Emmanuel have seen firsthand."Right now, I'm one of the victims of the bill," said Henry, who has been targeted and arrested before for helping gay people. Since ABC News' visit to the clinic, police raided and shut Henry's clinic down. Henry was arrested and released.

Hiding in plain sight

Just before the new law came into effect, Mona Lisa, a 29-year-old trans woman, had her home raided by Ugandan authorities. She was jailed for three months on charges of "homosexuality propaganda."Her apartment is the only place where she feels safe to be her true self. She pulls out a small suitcase from on top of a shelf. Inside, her prized outfits are stashed away in secret.Donning a bright blue and yellow-patterned wrap and matching pants, a dark brown bob, and red lipstick, Mona Lisa says, "I feel perfect. I feel like this is the Mona I want to be like on a daily basis."While there was a time when it was safer to be her true self in public, she says, "It's not happening now."Meanwhile, 27-year-old Eric was also arrested earlier this year. Inside his home, the young activist wears a striped rainbow shirt and his home is filled with color. His full name and location are being withheld for safety reasons.But it's not safe to go out like this, Eric says.For Eric and his friends, just existing is a form of defiance. On this night, going out to a club is their act of resistance."You can't go alone out -- in case something happens. You can't just go alone," Eric said.Gay clubs in Uganda have been shut down, so the group of friends head to a local dance party instead. It's not illegal to have a good time, but those who are gay understand the risks.Despite the positive energy at the party, there's potential danger lurking beneath the surface. One complaint, one annoyed neighbor, one over-curious passerby, and it could all end with police sirens and violence.Yet, for Eric and his friends, they say this release is crucial for their survival."I surround myself with people that accept me. It's important," Eric said.

Denying the law's impact: 'We look at gay as a deviation'

Asuman Basalirwa is one of the Ugandan lawmakers who sponsored the new law and says other countries should respect Uganda's sovereignty."For us, we look at gay as a deviation," Basalirwa told ABC News.During a two-hour interview with Longman, Basalirwa repeatedly denied the negative impact of the new law on LGBT Ugandans."Let me tell you, I am a lawyer here, if anybody is being persecuted for existence, give me their contacts, I'll represent them free of charge. Where are they?" Basalirwa said.But Ugandan Human rights attorney Nicholas Opiyo says, "the stories I hear every day is different from what [Basalirwa] would want to tell you.""I have people who have been raped who are afraid to go to hospitals, because of fear of being reported. I have people who are hiding in their houses and are calling me for medical help, for food," Opiyo told ABC News.

Exporting hate through evangelism

The Anglican church has spearheaded the anti-LGBTQ movement in Uganda, where more than 80% of people are Christian and nearly 14.4% of people are Muslim -- with a heavy emphasis on "traditional family."Pastor Simeon Kawiya leads a Christian church in Kampala and is a supporter of the new anti-homosexuality law. Kawiya believes that being gay is taught and not how people are born."It's not a human right to be gay. It's not," Kawaiya told ABC News."The Parliament of Uganda voted 100% in favor of anti-LGBT law. I mean, the whole country voted that way," Kawaiya continued.More than 30 African countries ban same-sex relations, according to Human Rights Watch.But some people, including preacher Kapya Kaoma, claim anti-LGBTQ sentiment on the continent has been influenced from the outside."The whole idea of the persecution of African LGBTQ people did not come from Africa. American Christian rightists are behind it," Kaoma told ABC News.While working as a preacher in Uganda, Kaoma took videos of American preachers speaking against homosexuality in the country that became part of the award-winning documentary, "God Loves Uganda."Several media outlets, including Open Democracy, have reported that U.S.-based Christian groups -- known for fighting everything from access to abortion to limiting LGBTQ right -- spent tens of millions of dollars across Africa over the last decade or more.The origins of the new anti-LGBTQ law in Uganda can be traced back to 2009, when a bill nicknamed "Kill the Gays" was drafted in parliament. It finally passed in 2014, but was struck down before it went into effect."The American Evangelicals also learned something. What they started doing is having conferences -- Africans with American Christian rightists coming together," Kaoma said.Just before the new anti-LGBTQ law went into effect earlier this year, the government of Uganda hosted a conference titled, "Protecting African Culture and Family Values," which included members of parliament and Uganda President Yoweri Museveni, who posted parts of it on his social media channels."There will be no promotion of homosexuality in Uganda," Museveni said.Ugandan state TV also showed Sharon Slater, head of Arizona-based evangelical group, Family Watch International, speaking at the conference."I cannot tell you the power that I think will reverberate across Africa that will affect the whole world from this conference…We must stop this cultural imperialism that is coming and destroying our children and our families," Slater said.Shortly after the conference, Museveni signed the anti-homosexuality bill into law."Sharon Slater cannot deny those connections, she has people working with her on the ground in Uganda," Kaoma said.Family Watch International denies it helped author Uganda's anti-LGBTQ law. According to their website, the group says it opposed the bill and the penalties, including the death penalty and the part that would punish people for not turning in others."Family Watch pleaded with Uganda's president that if he planned to sign the bill, to ensure that it be softened to include a safe-haven clause whereby people with unwanted same-sex attraction can voluntarily come forward to ask for help without fear of being arrested or penalized," a statement on their website said.Opiyo, the human rights lawyer, told ABC News, "Who I have sex with, who I love, is less important to a common person in the village.""Evangelical and cultural groups have jumped on this campaign as an issue for them, and have created a sense that there's widespread hatred in this country," Opiyo said.

Looking ahead

The United States government invests nearly $1 billion annually in Uganda, according to the U.S. Embassy in Uganda.When asked what material response the Biden administration is planning, U.S. Secretary Antony Blinken told reporters at a press conference, "[Uganda's anti-homosexuality act] infringes very clearly on the human rights of Ugandan citizens…President Biden directed the government to evaluate all aspects of our engagement with Uganda…That process is ongoing and when I have any news for you on that front, I will share it."It's unclear if U.S. sanctions would have any effect.The World Bank has already stopped lending to Uganda and the European Union denounced the bill as well.Meanwhile, many of the young people in the country who spoke to ABC News wonder how they will survive in a country determined to punish them for merely living their lives."For me, it's all about freedom. Let us live in the moment, and be loved," Mona Lisa said.ABC News' Allie Weintraub, Jaclyn Skurie, Meagan Redman, and Stephanie Lorenzo contributed to this report.。21世纪经济报道记者注意到,近年来,券商再融资需求不断攀升,配股已成为再融资的一条重要渠道。此前, 中信证券A+H拟配股募资280亿元,最终A股认购总金额为223.96亿元(注:A+H合计认购总金额273.30亿元),刷新了券业历史。此次中金公司募资规划仅次于中信证券。中金公司指出,拟通过配股扩大资本规模,继续发挥机构业务、跨境业务等领域优势,着力提升创新能力、综合服务能力、业务协同能力,为服务实体经济发展和促进金融市场改革作出更多贡献。拟配股募资270亿元中金公司本次配股发行的股票种类为A股和H股。

C | 其中,A股配股拟以每10股配售不超过3股的比例向全体股东配售;H股配股拟以每10股配售不超过3股的比例向全体合格股东配售。若以公司截至2022年6月30日的总股本48.27亿股为基数测算(包括29.24亿股A股及19.04亿股H股),本次配售股份数量不超过14.48亿股,其中A股配股股数不超过8.77亿股,H股配股股数不超过5.71亿股。公告显示,中金公司本次配股募集资金总额预计不超过270亿元,扣除相关发行费用后,募集资金净额拟用于补充资本金支持各项业务发展,以及补充其他营运资金。其中,30亿元(约占募集金额10%)将用于补充流动性,240 亿元(约占募集金额 90%)将用于支持各项业务发展(包括资本服务与产品、投资银行、财富管理、私募股权、资产管理等各业务板块),加大多元业务及战略领域投入。进一步来看,一是支持资本金业务的创新和拓展,促进其更好运用资产负债表为客户提供一体化综合服务;二是巩固和扩大传统优势业务规模,提升业务承接能力,并加快发展科创板、私募股权、财富管理等新兴业务;三是进一步加强金融科技、国际化布局投入,加快推进数字化发展转型,提升国际市场竞争力。

D | 对于配股进展,中金公司表示,配股事项需提交股东大会审议,待股东大会通过后报监管核准,具体发行时间待定,请留意公司后续公告。定价方面,公司指出,将按照相关法律法规的要求,参考公司股票在二级市场的价格、市净率和市盈率等估值指标,并综合考虑公司业务发展、投资价值与股东利益等因素确定配股价格。

E | 补足净资本短板“公司当前净资本规模已无法满足公司未来的业务发展需求以及监管要求。

F | ”中金公司在谈及本次配股原因时表示,本次发行是顺应证监会鼓励证券公司进一步补充资本的举措,符合国家产业政策导向。对于本次配股的合理性,中金公司认为包括以下两方面:一是公司资产质量和财务状况良好,盈利能力具有可持续性,符合相关法律法规和规范性文件关于上市公司配股的各项规定,符合配股的发行条件。

G | 二是随着以净资本监管为核心的监管方式不断深化,政策支持证券公司改善盈利模式、加强风险控制、拓宽融资渠道、提高直接融资比重,鼓励证券公司进一步补充资本。21世纪经济报道记者获悉,中金公司作为头部券商,成长性和盈利能力在业内领先。截至2021年末,中金公司总资产达6498亿元,较2017年的2378亿元增长了173%;归母净资产达844亿元,较2017年增长了130%;归母净利润108亿元,较2017年的18亿元,复合年均增长率高达40%,增速远高于同业水平,在资产规模前20的券商中排名第一。

H | 其中,中金公司归母净利润的增速显著高于归母净资产的增速,体现出资金运用能力的增强。但与此同时,中金公司的净资产规模与同业相比存在着显著差距。2022年上半年,中金公司总资产排名第5,但净资产排名仅为第10。根据公司半年报披露,6月末资本杠杆率为11.7%,显著低于前十大券商平均水平(15.6%)。

I | 这个指标越低,意味着资本补充需求越迫切。

J | 证券行业属于资本密集型行业,证券公司的业务发展和综合服务能力与资本规模息息相关,充足的资本金将为证券公司扩大业务规模、拓展业务范围、优化盈利模式以及提升专业服务能力提供有力保障。值得注意的是,近年来,以净资本监管为核心的监管方式不断深化,政策支持证券公司改善盈利模式、加强风险控制、拓宽融资渠道、提高直接融资比重,鼓励证券公司进一步补充资本。

K | 中金公司本次配股公告直言,本次募资有助于公司夯实净资本监管指标,进一步提升风险抵御能力,为其业务发展提供有效保障,符合国家产业政策导向。

L | 券商配股趋于常态化对于此次配股,中金公司表示,配股为金融机构实施再融资的普遍方式,配股有助于公司提高净资本实力,使公司可以把握资本市场与证券行业发展机遇。记者注意到,在中金公司抛出270亿募集计划之前, 今年以来,中信证券、东方证券、财通证券、兴业证券4家券商完成配股,募资规模超过500亿元,除中信证券之外其余3家的配股均在今年获证监会核准。据Wind数据显示,2017年至今,共有13家券商实施了14次配股。配股比例方面,11家券商的配股比例为0.3,东方证券、西部证券、中信证券3家的配股比例较低,分别为0.28、0.26、0.15。2017年以来A股券商配股情况 数据来源:Wind从募集资金来看, 上述13家券商A股合计募集资金达到1144.97亿元,平均每家募资81.78亿元。其中,中信证券募资金额最多,为223.96亿元;最少的是山西证券的38.05亿元。认购比例上, 13家券商的平均认购比例为96.69%,均处于高位

M | 有业内人士指出,虽然配股不会摊薄原有股东的权益,但相对来说,配股在市场行情回暖的时候成功率更大。

N | 中金公司的控股股东中央汇金已承诺,将根据本次配股股权登记日收市后的持股数量,以现金方式全额认购根据本次配股方案确定的其于本次配股项下获配售的配售股份。如控股股东不履行认配股份的承诺,或者代销期限届满,原A股股东认购股票的数量未达到A股拟配售数量百分之七十的,中金公司表示,将按照发行价并加算银行同期存款利息返还已经认购的股东。E N D 本期编辑 江佩佩 实习生 罗新雨百万读者都在看iPhone14来了:顶配13499!“药丸”屏官宣,摄像头大升级!还有这些新设计 国家医保局:定了,4500元! 返回搜狐,查看更多责任编辑:
