Overseas strategic investors are generally overseas listed companies or well-known venture capital funds, which are obviously attractive to public investors in the capital market, and even many strategic investors can provide business support and help for companies.
Second, the introduction of strategic investors before listing can obtain foreign exchange funds needed for overseas restructuring. In the past, the red chip operation was to set up a sea shell company with the original shareholders, and then the sea shell company acquired domestic enterprises. The acquisition process needs foreign exchange funds, and the funds of strategic investors can be used for this purpose.
Third, the introduction of strategic investors before listing can get the listing fee. If an enterprise pays a lot of expenses in its operation, it may bring pressure to the company's cash flow. If you introduce strategic investors overseas, you can pay directly overseas, which is relatively simple.
