I Latest Rules and RegulationsLatest
1. NFRA Issues the Measures for the Information Disclosure of Asset Management Products of Banking and Insurance Institutions (Draft for Comments)
(1)Scope of Application: The Information Disclosure Measures applies to the information disclosure behavior of asset management trust products, wealth management products, and insurance asset management products issued and managed within the territory of the People's Republic of China.
(2)Disclosure Channels and Methods: Disclosure shall combine public and non-public methods. Public offering products shall be disclosed via platforms recognized by the NFRA, or through other channels as agreed to by investors. Private placement products shall be disclosed through investor-agreed channels, ensuring consistency across platforms. Where multiple parties are obligated to disclose a product, such responsibilities should be contractually defined,. In the event that no explicit agreement exosts, it willassumed to be the responsibility of the product manager by default. False statements, irregular commitments, and performance forecasts are prohibited. Private placement products may not disclose information publicly or in disguised form unless otherwise prescribed by law.
(3)Disclosure Obligations Across Product Phases: During sales, issuers shall disclose key documents such as prospectuses, contracts, risk disclosures, and custodian agreements. Special disclosures are required for private placement products with cooling-off periods, investor meetings, liquidity risk controls, or specific accounting treatments. A founding announcement must be disclosed by the manager within five business days. Material changes must be updated at least annually. During the operation phase, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual reports are required which should include the product's outstanding scale, performance, investment account details, key holdings, and risks. For significant matters (e.g., changes of manager, investor resolutions, or major legal disputes), disclosure must be made within five business days to investors. Upon termination, a maturity announcement or liquidation report must be issued. Any delay in liquidation must be explained in a timely manner.
(4)Disclosure Management Responsibilities: Obligated entities must establish robust information disclosure systems. Theproduct manager’s board of directors bears ultimate responsibility, and must deliberate on major matters, designate senior executives and dedicated departments to oversee disclosure maters, and keep undisclosed information well-managed. For complex or high-risk products, obligated entities mustproactively disclose risks and clarify misleading information. Disclosure-related documents must be retained for 15 years after contract termination.
The Information Disclosure Measures clarify procedures, standards, and responsible parties, helping to enhance transparency in asset management and strengthen investor protection.
2. PBOC Issues the Measures for the Administration of the Reporting of Cybersecurity Incidents in the Business Fields of the People's Bank of China
On May 23, 2025, PBOC released the Measures for the Administration of the Reporting of Cybersecurity Incidents in the Business Fields of the People's Bank of China (“Cybersecurity Incident Reporting Measures”), aimed at further regulating the reporting of cybersecurity incidents within PBOC’s business fields. The key points include:
(1)Scope of Application: The Measures apply to the conduct of financial institutions and other institutions approved or recognized by PBOC that report incidents to PBOC or its local branches, provided that such incidents:
(a) Occur within the territory of the People’s Republic of China;
(b) Take place within business fields under the supervision and management of PBOC;
(c) Are caused by human factors, cyberattacks, vulnerabilities, software/hardware defects, or force majeure, and pose harm to the networks or data established, operated, maintained and managed by PBOC.
(2)Classification of Cybersecurity Incidents: Institutions must establish a classification threshold system for incidents, considering factors such as impact on business, user experience, and peak business periods. Events are classified into four levels: particularly significant, significant, relatively significant, and general. What constitutes each level is defined in The Measures.
(3)Incident Reporting Mechanism: The Measures clarify the reporting mechanisms. Key financial institutions (such as the China Development Bank, policy banks, major commercial banks, systemically important financial institutions, etc.) must report directly to PBOC. Internal reporting layers are also set within PBOC. Events classified as relatively significant or above require brief initial reports, followed by detailed reports.Incidents triggering public concern are also classified as relatively significant. Incidents of significant level or above must be followed up with updates every two hours. Reports should include brief occurrence reports, full occurrence reports, mid-event updates, and post-event summaries. These reports should also include the following four stages: basic information disclosure, response measures, progress tracking, and retrospective analysis.
The Measures clearly define incident classification and reporting mechanisms, improving the timeliness and accuracy of risk response, and providing institutional safeguards for financial institutions to build sound cybersecurity systems.
3. CSRC Issues the Decision on Amending the Measures for the Administration of Significant Asset Restructuring of Listed Companies
On May 16, 2025, CSRC issued a series of amendments to the Measures for the Administration of Significant Asset Restructuring of Listed Companies (“2025 Restructuring Measures”). Key revisions include:
(1)Relaxing Oversight on Financial Conditions, Related-Party Transactions, and Industry Competition: The new version reduces the original requirement that listed companies must prove that transactions will significantly improve financial conditions, reduce related-party transactions, and avoid industry competition. Instead, they only need to confirm the transaction does not cause significant deterioration, manifest unfairness, or independence issues.
(2)Encouraging Private Equity Participation in M&A: The Measures explicitly encourage private equity funds to participate in listed company M&A and address the mismatch between fund duration and lock-up periods. For PE funds holding investments exceeding 48 months, third-party transaction lock-up periods have now been shortened from 12 months to 6 months. For restructuring listings, non-controlling shareholders’ lock-up periods have now been shortened from 24 months to 12 months.
(3)Phased Payment with Single Registration: The Measures allow for one-time registration for phased equity issuance in asset purchases, valid for 48 months, with no repeated review required so long as the necessary requirements are met. The lock-up period starts from the date of each issuance. When calculating the ratio of asset purchase amount to the company's total assets, all phases are considered cumulatively.
The 2025 Restructuring Measures aim to enhance transaction efficiency and operational flexibility, loosening restrictions to boost market vitality and promote diversified and high-quality M&A development.
4. CSRC Issues the Regulatory Rules on Fundraising by Listed Companies
On May 9, 2025, the CSRC issued the Regulatory Rules on Fundraising by Listed Companies (“Fundraising Rules”) to improve the efficiency of fund utilization. These rules are based on the Guidelines for the Supervision of Listed Companies No. 2—Regulatory Requirements for the Management and Use of Fundraising by Listed Companies, and were revised in response to changes in the capital market environment. Key provisions are as follows:
(1)Strict Restrictions on the Use of Excess Fundraising: The Rules specify that surplus funds may not be used for permanent replenishment of working capital or repayment of bank loans. They should be used for ongoing or new projects, or for share buybacks followed by capital reduction. However, temporarily idle funds may be used for cash management or short-term working capital supplementation, provided internal review and public disclosure are conducted.
(2)Limits on Changes in Fundraising Purposes: The Rules define four types of changes in fundraising purposes: cancelling or terminating original investment projects; implementing new projects or permanent working capital supplementation; changing the project implementation entity; changing the project implementation method; and other circumstances identified by the CSRC. Two exceptions are provided: changes within the listed company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and changes involving only the project location.
(3)Strict Management of Fund Accounts: The Rules require that idle fundraising used for cash management must be conducted through special fundraising accounts or disclosed dedicated settlement accounts. The latter must not hold non-fundraising capital or be used for other purposes. Temporary working capital supplementation must also be implemented through designated accounts.
The Fundraising Rules prohibit the permanent use of excess funds for liquidity replenishment or debt repayment, encourage their use in business operations or capital structure optimization, and strengthen supervision over fund utilization, promoting standard operation and high-quality development of listed companies.
II Industry News
1. PBOC and SAFE Issue the Notice on Issues Related to Capital Management for Overseas Listings of Domestic Enterprises (Draft for Comments)
On May 23, 2025, the PBOC and SAFE issued the Notice on Issues Related to Capital Management for Overseas Listings of Domestic Enterprises (Draft for Comments) (“Capital Management Notice”), to regulate the capital management related to direct overseas listings or issuance of depository receipts by joint stock companies registered in China and filed with the CSRC.

The Notice provides that foreign currency or RMB funds obtained from fundraising, share reduction, or share transfers in overseas listings may be transferred in or out through capital account settlement accounts. Funds converted into RMB may be directly deposited into the company’s RMB settlement account. H-share "full circulation" companies may distribute dividends in RMB directly to domestic shareholders. Companies may independently settle foreign exchange proceeds and choose banks or brokers to conduct spot conversion or hedging. Retention of part of the funds overseas is permitted, provided the purpose aligns with the offering documents. Except for buybacks and domestic shareholder increases, overseas listing registration rights are delegated to banks, and deadlines for registration at various stages (listing, issuance, reduction) are extended.
