It is worth mentioning that the Action Plan also mentioned that if the "chain owner" enterprises carry out mergers and acquisitions around the key links of the industrial chain through enterprise venture capital (CVC), the establishment of CVC funds will be included in the fast track. At the same time, government investment funds can participate in M&A fund investment through common shares, preferred shares and convertible bonds, and make appropriate profits.Big move! Two billion M&A and restructuring funds in Shanghai have come to target the chip and pharmaceutical industries.Bu Rixin, a partner of Chuangdao Investment Consulting, said in an interview with the science and technology innovation board Journal that the 10 billion M&A fund is mainly aimed at the "integrated circuit design industry", which may be related to the end of the IPO dividend period of chip design companies.
In this regard, Bu Rixin believes that "chain owners" enterprises, as market-oriented institutions, set up CVC funds and will carry out horizontal and vertical mergers and acquisitions around the upstream and downstream of key industrial chains. "This kind of M&A will help chain-owner enterprises to expand their market scale and enhance their market competitiveness, which is the most in line with the logic of M&A and the basic logic of the Action Plan to encourage chain-owner enterprises to set up CVC funds."In addition to the integrated circuit design industry, Shanghai will also set up a M&A fund for the biomedical industry with a scale of 10 billion yuan.The "10 billion yuan M&A fund for integrated circuit design industry" stated in the Action Plan is considered by the market as a supplement to the 100 billion yuan parent fund for the three leading industries.
"The government's participation in M&A fund investment does not mean that the government will dominate the M&A business, but encourage market-oriented institutions and chain owners to lead the M&A business through the above-mentioned M&A fund or parent fund support." Bu Rixin believes.In its view, this 10 billion M&A fund is not only 10 billion yuan, but also a way for the government to encourage and guide M&A through the amplification of M&A funds. "In short, whether it is the M&A fund of the integrated circuit design industry or the M&A fund of biomedicine, the core purpose is to guide the orderly development of the industry and avoid the dependence on the IPO path, leading to excessive competition in the industry."Unlike Shenzhen and Anhui, which made good use of "green channel" policies such as debt financing, mergers and acquisitions, and vigorously developed equity-based M&A funds, this time Shanghai directly gave the scale of M&A funds.
