CHINESE companies were involved in 294 mergers last year, a rise of 59.8 percent from a year earlier, as their confidence were given a boost by the country's strong economic growth, an industry report said.
The value of the mergers totaled US$33.15 billion, similar with that in 2008, with acquisitions of overseas firms accounting for 48.6 percent, Zero2IPO Research Center said in a report yesterday.
"Domestic companies will engage actively in mergers this year in anticipation of a global economic recovery and the Chinese government's encouragement," said Li Luhui, an analyst at Zero2IPO.
China's economy grew 10.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2009 from a year earlier - the fastest pace since 2007 - and lifted growth to 8.7 percent last year.
Zero2IPO forecast mergers among state-owned enterprises to play an important role in the domestic market.
The state-owned asset regulator had reduced the number of centrally-administered SOEs from 196 to 129 by the end of last year. The regulator intends to cut their number to between 80 and 100 this year.
