On 24 June 2016, the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (“SASAC”) and Ministry of Finance (“MOF”) jointly released the Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Transactions involving State-Owned Assets of Enterprises (Order No. 32, “Measures”), which came into effect the same day. The Measures complement the Interim Measures for the Management of Transfers of State-Owned Property Rights of Enterprises issued by SASAC and MOF in 2003 (Order No. 3) and broaden the scope of transactions in relation to state-owned assets subject to supervision (“SOA Transactions”). They also further detail the rules and requirements for the transaction process.
