China’s M&A regime has developed on all fronts since the last edition of this book was published. New developments have taken place in general areas such as company law, property law, labour law, foreign exchange control and dispute settlement. In the area of tax China has refined its anti-avoidance rules underscoring attempts to enforce China’s tax laws rigorously and to fight tax avoidance and tax evasion. At the same time China’s merger control regime has benefitted significantly from the enactment of additional implementing rules and the publication of new decisions by MOFCOM’s Anti-Monopoly Bureau. The legal framework for a state security review system has been established and must be considered for all inbound acquisitions. Last but not least, the most recent liberalization of China’s outbound investment regime will improve the competitiveness of Chinese companies when bidding for overseas targets even further and thus change the global M&A playing field significantly.
The 5th edition of this book incorporates these and other new developments comprehensively. Like the previous editions it provides a structured up-to-date introduction to the legal regime governing M&A transactions in mainland China with a focus on practical issues arising out of China-related M&A transactions with the involvement of non-Chinese parties.
