China’s regulator unveils plan to streamline foreign investor access

Investing.com -- China’s securities regulator announced a new plan on Monday to reform its qualified foreign investor regime, introducing measures to simplify access requirements, boost operational efficiency, and widen investment opportunities.

Wu Qing, chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), speaking at a Beijing forum, described the initiative as part of broader efforts to enhance "the inclusiveness, adaptability and competitiveness of capital markets," according to state media outlet Xinhua Caijing.

The CSRC also plans to introduce a shelf-based refinancing mechanism "at an appropriate time" and streamline the filing process for companies looking to list overseas, Wu said.

The regulator’s chairman noted that as markets undergo risk repricing and asset rebalancing, investors are increasingly prioritizing stability and diversification in their asset allocation strategies. Wu added that "the value of Chinese onshore and Hong Kong shares is becoming increasingly evident" in this environment.
