Headquartered in Beijing, AnJie Broad Law Firm provides full legal services in transactional law and is strong in financial legal services related to the insurance industry.  

Highlights  

The firm has experience in domestic and foreign M&A, foreign direct investment, real estate and construction projects, financial leasing, infrastructure, banking and finance, overseas investment, capital markets, private equity and venture capital.  

In the M&A sector, the firm advised Ningbo Huaxiang Electronic Co. on its acquisition of the China operations of Luxembourg-based International Automotive Components Group. This complex transaction involved sellers from three foreign entities and six domestic target companies across multiple jurisdictions, including wholly owned subsidiaries, a joint venture, and their respective branches. The legal team successfully navigated the intricacies of this deal by efficiently conducting due diligence under tight deadlines, creatively structuring the transaction, and managing the closing arrangements. 

The firm also assisted Yinchuan Shengrong Investment in establishing a joint venture with American Lycra Company, known as the Yinchuan Spandex Project. This initiative revitalised local assets, unlocked the market potential of Yinchuan's non-performing assets, and significantly enhanced the efficiency of state-owned asset utilisation. By resolving historical burdens associated with underutilised assets from previous transactions, the project is poised to have a profound impact on local economic and social development. Scheduled to commence operations in August 2025, the project is expected to create between 300 to 500 local jobs and generate an annual tax revenue of RMB 100 million (US$14 million), thereby contributing to the local economy's prosperity.
