Chinese companies accerlerate pace in listing in Germany

Currently, 24 Chinese companies have been successfully listed at Deutsche B�rse, seven of which were listed in 2010, accounting for nearly 30 percent of the total. On 30 March, 2010, Joyou AG became the first Chinese manufacturer of sanitary ware products listed in Europe. Following its path, companies including High Win PLC Inc., Euro Asia Premier Real Estate Company Limited, Cheung Wing Biotechnology Company Ltd, China Zongbao Clean Tech Ltd., Kinghero AG and Madison Property AG have all been listed at Deutsche B�rse within five months, proving further that Deutsche B�rse is gradually becoming an attractive choice for Chinese companies to get listed overseas.

The seven companies listed this year were based in Shandong, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Fujian. They represent a variety of different industries such as greentech, hightech-engineering, healthcare, chemical industry, and real estate; and also traditional industries such as consumer products and furniture. This proves that the efforts of Deutsche B�rse in the Chinese market are achieving results. Mr. Alexander H�ptner said: “We are very optimistic about further listings in 2010. We expect up to five more Chinese companies to come to Frankfurt this year. Our goal is to become the best partner for Chinese companies listing abroad, and help them to achieve growth in value with our customized services. Based on our rich experience with German “Mittelstand-“companies we are connecting industrial and financial giants with investors wordwide, and we are also specialists in providing liquidity and added value for small and medium-sized companies. We have organized a series of activities in China this year, and we will continue to strengthen cooperation with Chinese partners and further explore the potential of the Chinese market.“
