The State Council has published Regulations on outbound investment, MOFCOM said.
Key measures: strengthen services by building a comprehensive overseas service
system and improving institutional support to provide legal protection for
Chinese firms participating in international cooperation and competition;
optimize management by improving the outbound investment management framework
and reinforcing investor primary responsibility; and bolster protection via
enhanced monitoring, early warning and risk assessment, guidance on security
risk prevention, and creation of an investment-barrier investigation mechanism
to protect investors’ safety and lawful rights. MOFCOM, as the supervisor department for
outbound investment, will coordinate with other ministries and local governments
on implementation and offer investor guidance to raise outbound investment
service and management standards.
