自贸区首支跨境并购基金渤海华美50亿元落地
The first cross-border M&A fund unveiled in Shanghai FTZ, Bohai Huamei.

晨哨网特约记者 李关云 慕丽洁 上海报道
作为中国对外股权投资的核心试验场——上海自贸区终于迎来了第一支跨境并购基金渤海华美。
As a core test range for Chinese oversea equity investment, the Shanghai FTZ (China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone) finally welcomed its first cross-border M&A fund, Bo Hai Hua Mei.
渤海产业投资基金总裁李祥生向晨哨网独家披露,目前渤海产业基金正在与中外合作伙伴一起筹建一支50亿元规模的全球人民币美元平行基金——渤海华美（上海）并购股权投资基金。目前该基金的管理公司已经于上海自贸区完成注册，全称为渤海华美（上海）股权投资基金管理有限公司。
Mr. Johnathan Li, president of Bohai industrial investment fund management (Bohai), informed the morning whistle exclusively that currently Bohai had been working with partners from China and foreign countries to organize a RMB-USD parallel fund of RMB 5 billion, Bohai Huamei(Shanghai) M&A equity investment fund. Now the management company of this fund, Bohai Huamei(Shanghai) equity investment fund management Co.,Ltd., has been successfully registered in Shanghai FTZ.
“目前在自贸区申报的大概有30多家并购基金，我们是第一� �落定的。”李祥生介绍，渤海华美由四家中外专业投资机构共同发起设立，发起人包括渤海产业基金、上海丰实金融服务有限公司（下称：丰实金融）、Rosemont Seneca Partners, LLC （下称：Rosemont)和 Thornton Group LLC。
“We are the first one finalized among over 30 M&A fund under application process in Shanghai FTZ ”, introduced Mr. Johnathan Li. Bohai Huamei is started and formed by four Chinese or international professional investment institutions, which includes Bohai industrial investment fund management Co.(Bohai), Shanghai ample harvest financial services Co.(Harvest), Rosemont Seneca Partners, LLC Rosemont) and Thornton Group LLC.
渤海华美计划以有限合伙的形式，在全球募集50亿元人民币（包括25亿元的人民币基金和等值于 25亿元人民币的平行的美元基金），并将在全球范围内寻求投资机会，重点专注于欧美市场的并购项目投资——显然，两家外资公司将为渤海华美操作海外投资并购提供资源和渠道。
值得注意的是,这支新基金的问世，不仅是渤海产业基金国际化发展的里程碑，更是其市场化改革的重大突破。
By mean of limited partnership, Bohai Huamei plans to raise a fund of RMB 5 billion globally (i.e., RMB 2.5 billion for the RMB fund and the USD equivalent of RMB 2.5 billion for the USD fund). Bohai Huamei will indentify cross-border M&A investment opportunities with an emphasis on M&A deals in Europe and U.S. Obviously, those two foreign partners will provide resources, channels and connections for oversea M&A deals to Bohai Huamei. Most importantly, the establishment of this new fund, is not only a milestone to Bohai on its internationalization path, but also a major breakthrough on marketization reform.
李祥生表示，渤海华美未来将集中精力做超大规模、有国际影响力的项目,通常只做1亿美金规模以上的投资并购项目,低于1亿美金的项目除非有特别优势才会予以考虑。
Johnathan Li said, in future Bohai Huamei would focus on huge internationally-influential M&A projects, and generally would not consider any M&A deals whose scale is lesser than USD 100 million only except they do possess special advantages.
他还特别强调，强大的国资股东背景有助于渤海华美上马超大型投资并购项目E2��—实现项目投资规模“上不封顶”。即如果项目金额巨大，但经过多方测评后认为仍然值得投，股东中的国开行、中国银行等可以为其提供贷款完成收购，这就让渤海华美有能力执行一些别的公司无力操作的大项目。
He also emphasized that, strong support from Chinese SOE shareholders is highly helpful for Bohai Huamei while engaging with any huge M&A deal---there is no limitation on project investment size. Even for a mega-sized deal, as long as the feasible study and evaluation from all parties shows it is worthy, shareholders like China development Bank，Bank of China and so on will provide loan to finalize the deal. This critical fact enables Bohai Huamei to carry out some super-sized deals unaffordable to other funds.
