The Chinese government is studying how to improve methods and work efficiency next year to shorten the time for evaluating merger and acquisition proposals, reports Reuters.
Shang Ming, head of the anti-trust division of the ministry, notes that a slowdown in business expansion have pushed companies towards increasing sales through M&A deals. The ministry had received 194 applications for M&A deals from domestic and foreign companies between January and mid-December, up 43 percent from a year earlier.
Quoting Shang, Reuters reports that the ministry had finished vetting 160 cases, with 94 percent of them being approved.
