Investigation of ports across China (Company searches) |
|||||||||||||
Our client, one of the world’s biggest port
operators, has been making a series of investments in ports across China over
the past few years. Whenever the client makes a new investment
or acquisition, it is essential that it understands what it is getting
into. The ownership structure of ports
in China is incredibly complex. In
many cases, different parties own the port itself, the rights to shipping
lanes, the berths within the port, and container handling facilities. Our client needs to know exactly who it is
dealing with, and which entities it must acquire in order to have the level
of control over the port that it expects.
Every time the client begins work on a new
project, it engages Sinogie to conduct a series of company searches on
entities involved with the target port’s operations. We provide the client with information
including the following:

Because of the complex ownership structures
of these companies, our research often involves company searches not only in Mainland
China, but in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and elsewhere. Sinogie then creates a clear picture of the
ownership structure and operations of each port. |

Armed with this information, our client has
made a series of smooth, hassle free investments and acquisitions in ports
along China’s coast. |
