China to further ease foreign investment restrictions

China will implement policies to ease foreign investment restrictions and improve the business environment, Xinhuarun Economic Information Daily reported.

Authorities have started to clear up restrictive regulations on foreign investment that go beyond the official negative list, the newspaper reported.

By the end of March 2019, China will lift all barriers to foreign investments not included on the negative list and launch a special inspection to ensure foreign investors are treated fairly in the process of government procurement, financial support and qualification, Ministry of Commerce official Tang Wenhong said.
