Chapter 2 in Chinese M&As in Germany, 2019, pp 7-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Cross-border M&A activities by Chinese firms gained steam following the introduction of the “Go Global” policy around the year 2000. However, in the early years, Chinese M&As in Germany were a rarity. They first gained noticeable momentum around 2010 (see Fig. 2.1) when both the number and size of M&A deals were on the rise. Chinese companies took advantage of the weak financial position of European firms, which sped up their penetration into Europe in the aftermath of the global financial crisis.
