Mergers and acquisitions of state-owned enterprises by foreign investors in China

China now is one of the most attractive destinations for foreign direct investment (FDI) and mergers and acquisitions (M&As) have become an increasingly important mode of FDI entry in China since its accession to the World Trade Organization. M&As in China are expected to play a vital role in the restructuring of its inefficient State-owned enterprises. This thesis characterizes and analyzes the evolving Chinese legal regime governing M&As in the context of the ongoing economic reform. In addition, it identifies the antitrust issues arising from foreign acquisitions of Chinese domestic enterprises, which can result in market dominance and restrictive practices in China. The thesis concludes that China's M&A regime can be improved and aligned more closely with international practices as its economy becomes further integrated into the world economy.
