What are some of the types of acquisitions and corresponding procedures?

In China, one company can acquire another in several ways, including purchasing some or all of the company’s assets or buying up its outstanding shares of stock. For share acquisitions, investors can acquire the equity or subscribe additional registered capital of a domestic company and convert it into a foreign-invested enterprise (FIE). For asset acquisition, investors can establish a new FIE and either acquire the assets of a domestic company or directly acquire the assets of a domestic company and then inject those assets as registered capital into an FIE.
