This book analyzes China's new foreign investment law which came into
force in January 2020. The new law implemented sweeping changes and
overhauled China's foreign investment law regime of the last four
decades. The foreign investment law aims to make the business
environment more investor-friendly and address some of the contentious
issues between US and China in the ongoing trade war.
The book explains how the law enhances regulatory transparency. It also
outlines the new approval process, that is the pre-establishment
negative list system which has replaced the former approval system for
foreign investment projects. The book also analyzes China's series of
anti-sanction laws.
This book will help give readers a better understanding of major changes
and benefits under the new law and will be the first of its kind looking
at the implications of this important law.
