Vincent Chen from Dacheng Law Offices.

The Anti-monopoly Law is seen as a welcome change for China, which began drafting the law in 1994. Mr. Lehman sees the move as signaling China's "moving from a planned economy to a market economy and that this move for the Chinese was not really a question of ‘if’ but when.” Although the media has reported extensively on the potential impacts on foreign investors, Mr. Lehman sees the law as having a much greater impact on Chinese businesses, as foreign mergers and acquisitions are only a small percentage of the number which take place in China.
