With the continued growth of China’s economy, many Chinese businesses have emerged as attractive acquisition targets. Recognising this, the Government has amended the M&A rules governing foreign investors and the enterprise bankruptcy laws, attempting to boost foreign investors’ confidence in China.
China’s regulations on mergers and acquisitions of domestic enterprises by foreign investors became effective on 8 September, 2006, and substantially amend and expand the interim M&A rules governing foreign investors adopted in 2003.
