It's a way to measure socialist development post-revolution.
State capitalism is an example of an early stage of development, where they need to attract foreign capital in addition to just using domestic banks to fund development. Once that's no longer necessary because they have built up their domestic capacity they can start to phase it out entirely and public companies/public investment can replace private and foreign capital.
