outbound investment

Marking the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative, China’s outbound direct investment (ODI) has maintained its global top-three position for 11 consecutive years. By 2022, overseas investments hit a record $2.75 trillion. M&A deals are booming, with tech and manufacturing leading the charge. Belt and Road partners see a surge in investment, while large deals over $500 million are on the rise.

Looking ahead, China's "going global" strategy is gaining momentum. Fueled by technological advancements, strong brands, and an alignment with global trends like the digital and green economies, Chinese companies are actively expanding overseas and exploring new growth opportunities.  Despite a challenging geopolitical landscape in 2024, China's commitment to high-level openness suggests "going global" will remain a key strategy for many Chinese enterprises.

In this context, this China Outbound Investment Guide empowers you with the knowledge and strategies needed to thrive in today's dynamic environment. Gain critical insights into the latest regulations, tax considerations, and industry-specific nuances that can impact your outbound investment journey.

ALB now sincerely invites more contributors and supporting organizations to join hands on the publication of the handbook.

The handbook will reach over 50,000 legal professionals in the Asia Pacific. Free copies of the handbooks/legal guides will be distributed to in-house counsels, chartered secretaries in Hong Kong, China and Singapore, business associations and chambers, international associations of CFOs and Corporate Treasurers and more!
