9Total investment and shareholder capital

Registered capital Off-shoredebt

The registered capital is a function of the WOFE’s total investment size (see table above)

The remainder between the total investment and the shareholder capital is the company’s Foreign Debt Quota “FDQ”. This quota defines the maximum amount of off-shore debt a company can borrow

A company’s FDQ can be used for short-term and long-term loans

Note that usage of long-term loans will “eat up” the FDQ for good

Process overview Comments

Entrustment loans

In China corporations can distribute and transfer funds within the group by means of entrustment loans

For RMB transfers there is no need to have locally incorporated holding companies

The transaction is based on a three-party lending agreement between the two sister companies and the Agent Bank

How it works Cash rich Company A provide funds of RMB 5m to sister

Company B through the Agent Bank

The Agent Bank collects interest of [x]% p.a. from sister Company B and transfer it back to Company A– The interest rate should be based on the arm’s length principle

If the loan is still needed at the time of repayment a new agreement will be established between the two parties

Company A pays a commission fee to the Agent bank

12Forward exchange contract

A forward exchange contract or a “FX forward” is a binding contract to buy or sell a certain amount of foreign currency at a pre-agreed rate and on a certain future date

A forward contract is the easiest way of covering exchange risk because it locks in the exchange rate. This strategy mitigates one of the problems that customer experience when importing or exporting in foreign currency

In order to carry out a FX forward the customer need to advise the agent bank the amount, the currencies, the expiry date and whether customer would like to buy or sell the currency

Our minimum transaction amount is USD 10,000
