Event Details
Due to the global adjustment of business strategy and the considerable impact brought by COVID-19, a number of foreign investors no longer take China as their production base. Those having established labour-intensive industries in China are gradually adjusting existing business and are shifting to capital-intensive and technology-intensive industries. Consequently, many companies are looking for ways to optimize business and implement synergies. Implementing such restructuring and/or optimization efforts often raises complicated legal issues. In addition, over the past two years, Chinese legislative authorities issued the Foreign Investment Law of the People's Republic of China, the Regulation on the Implementation of the Foreign Investment Law of the People's Republic of China and several related regulations and notices, which mark the beginning of a new era for foreign investment in China. Foreign invested entities' restructuring or optimization plans require careful analysis in light of recent legislation and policy considerations. Moreover, foreign invested entities may borrow foreign loans and their overseas parents may raise funds backed by their assets located in China from time to time, while it is very difficult, if not impossible, to satisfy some requirements on foreign exchange, such as getting onshore security offshore loan registered with SAFE.
由于全球商业战略的调整和COVID-19带来的巨大影响,许多外国投资者不再把中国作为他们的生产基地。在中国建立劳动密集型产业的企业正在逐步调整现有业务,向资本密集型和技术密集型产业转移。因此,许多公司都在寻找优化业务和实现协同效应的方法。实施此类重组和/或优化工作往往会引起复杂的法律问题。此外,近两年来,中国立法机关先后出台了《中华人民共和国外商投资法》、《中华人民共和国外商投资法实施条例》及若干相关法规和通知,这标志着在中国外商投资进入了一个新时代。外商投资实体的重组或优化计划需要根据最近的立法和政策考虑进行仔细分析。此外,外商投资实体可能会借入外国贷款,其海外母公司可能会不时以其在中国的资产为担保筹集资金,但要满足某些外汇要求,如在国家外汇管理局注册内保外贷,即使不是不可能,也是非常困难的。
