Lexis Nexis Private Equity in Hong Kong and China – Third Edition
Author: Simon Luk
Private Equity in Hong Kong and China aims to provide an overview of private equity investments by guiding readers through each stage of a transaction, from deal-structuring, deal-financing to exit strategies. Also included in this new edition are legislative changes with impact on private equity investments such as the new foreign investment law and data privacy regulations in China, compliance considerations after a private equity investment is made, and an update on the listing regimes in Hong Kong and the U.S. with an emphasis on SPACs. Consistent with previous editions, we aim to make this title more than a mere textbook: Whilst its focus is on the laws of Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China, this book contains brief discussions on offshore elements, such as the role played by offshore tax havens in the structuring of funds and investments.
