Chen Shu, director of the Securities and Exchange Commission, adds that most of the first generation of Taiwan entrepreneurs built their businesses up from nothing through conservatism and stability. Now that the second generation is taking over, "most stress financial management, diversified operations, and straddle across into the financial sector--banks, securities--and it is in these areas that they are most active."
證管會組長陳樹也指出，過去國內第一代企業家，大都白手起家，以保守、穩健打出天下；現在由第二代接棒，「大多重視理財、多角化經營，跨足金融業﹘﹘銀行、證券﹘ ﹘正是這方面的積極表現。」
