China is steadily expanding its number of QDLP (Qualified Domestic Limited Partner) Pilot Zones, and plans to establish QDLP Pilot Zones in both the Hainan Free Trade Port and in Chongqing to better support the development of the Hainan Free Trade Port and the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle.

(Note: Qualified Domestic Limited Partner refers to those permitted to register overseas, invest in overseas market hedge funds, raise RMB funds from domestic investors, and invest these funds in overseas markets.)

Other information:

In September, the first QFLP (Qualified Foreign Limited Partner) fund of the Hainan Free Trade Port introduced by the Bank of Communications was put fully in place with 99.98 million US dollars, marking a new stage of the operation of Hainan QFLP funds.

On October 26, interim measures on launching domestic equity investment for qualified foreign limited partners (QFLP) were issued in Hainan.

(Note: QFLP means that a foreign enterprise can participate in the establishment of a foreign-invested enterprise with equity investment, raising funds from home and abroad privately, and participate in equity investment of domestic non-listed companies, so as to further facilitate the inbound investment of overseas institutions.)
