The regulations will help ensure that foreign M&A deals promote China's economic growth without threatening its economic security, Cheng stated.
Under the Antitrust Law, China would scrutinize foreign M&A proposals if they posed a potential threat to national security, he noted.
To evaluate foreign M&A deals, the first factor should be whether the domestic firms were fairly priced. The second was whether the deal would lead to company asset growth, Cheng added.
