China to lift foreign investment access restrictions in manufacturing sector
BEIJING, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) -- Restrictions on foreign investment in the manufacturing sector will be lifted with the release of the 2024 version of the negative list for foreign investment access, China's top economic planner announced Sunday.
Jointly issued by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the Ministry of Commerce (MOC), the negative list, effective Nov. 1, reduces the number of restrictions from 31 to 29, achieving zero restrictions on the manufacturing sector.
The release and implementation of the 2024 version of the national negative list is an important step in building a new system of higher-level open economy, an NDRC official said.
