Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) performed superbly in China capital market in 2009. According to an authoritative survey, in 2009 there were 19 publicly released PIPE listed companies (including overseas Chinese companies) in China capital market, and PIPE capital raised investment totaling RMB 22.621 billion during the year. PIPE is now becoming a considerable element of China's PE investment.
Many China-focused VC and PE investors recognize the opportunities in investing in China-based businesses that are listed in the U.S., Singapore or Hong Kong. Transactions involving listed companies raise unique challenges in terms of deal negotiation and transaction execution. Such transactions are regulated by securities regulations, takeovers code and listing rules of the jurisdiction where a company is listed and company law and governance practice of the jurisdiction where the company is incorporated. Those regulations may impact the terms, timetable, deal protection, execution risk and other aspects of a transaction.
Greg Liu, the partner at Paul, Weiss, to share his insights and experiences on PIPE and take-private transactions at the upcoming CVCA business roundtable. Using examples of PIPE investments in U.S.-listed companies and take-private transactions involving Singapore-listed companies, Greg will outline key structuring issues that VC and PE investors often need to address when negotiating and executing PIPE or take-private transactions.
Greg is a Beijing-based partner of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP.
