BEIJING -- The annual sessions of China's parliament and top political advisory body will have deputies and delegates from more than 150 listed companies, said Monday's China Securities Journal.

These companies account for about 10 percent of the total listed on the yuan-denominated market. Deputies and delegates to the upcoming sessions will include executives of large financial companies such as China Life Insurance (Group) Company and Ping An Insurance (Group) Company of China.

Analysts said this would add to voices of the capital market, which played an increasingly important role in the country's economy.

The two parliamentary sessions -- the Second Session of the 11th National People's Congress (NPC, the top legislature) and the Second Session of the 11th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC, the top advisory body) -- are set to start March 5 and March 3, respectively.
