China's review of foreign investment fuels concern

Beijing

CHINA's plan to broaden its ability to review incoming foreign investments for national security threats is fuelling concern that the move will add a layer of scrutiny for global companies expanding in the world's second largest economy.

The American Chamber of Commerce in China is preparing to voice concerns over the strengthened national security measures, according to a draft of the Chamber's response to the government's proposed Foreign Investment Law. The trade group will also seek further clarification on various parts of the regulations.
