In the coming one or two decades CEIBS Vice President and Dean ProfessorDing Yuan predicts we’ll see at least US$ 100 billion in outboundinvestment each year from China. What motivates Chinese companies’ globalambitions? Which deals make sense? What are the challenges in making thesecross-border mergers and acquisitions work?
In a talk recorded at the CEIBS Europe Forum in London onJuly 6, 2017, Professor Ding shares some of the findings from more than 30 casestudies done by the CEIBS Centre for the Globalization of Chinese Companiesthat explore Chinese outbound investments across a wide range of industries andcountries. As he explains in his talk, when they began their research, theCEIBS faculty found that the frameworks for globalization followed by Westernmultinationals do not apply to Chinese companies going global. Their reasonsfor pursuing foreign acquisitions and joint ventures, and the way they managethem are quite different. He explains the differences and provides some practical examples in this talk.
