史学界一直对商会经费问题关注不够。抗战胜利后商会普遍经费拮据,该问题却无人问津。聚焦此时的杭州市商会,其经费运筹呈现出吊诡现象:在经费拮据的情况下,商会运作正常,会务还有增无减。该现象是经费制度使然,即由商会经费中事务费与事业费分离所造成,实际上商会缺乏的是事务费而不是事业费。 Historians have been paying insufficient attention to the issue of funds for chambers of commerce. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese Chamber of Commerce generally funding constraints, but no one cares about the issue. Focusing on the Chamber of Commerce in Hangzhou at this time, the fund management operation presents a paradoxical phenomenon: In the case of financial constraints, the Chamber of Commerce is operating normally and its business is still growing. This phenomenon is caused by the financial system, which is caused by the separation of office expenses and business expenses in the Chamber of Commerce funds. In fact, the Chamber of Commerce does not charge for office expenses instead of business expenses.
