LONDON - s4story -- Ascendancy Advisors Limited has released Issue 6 of the China Commercial Intelligence Brief, titled "The Two-Track Capital Strategy: Decree 837, the Foreign Investment Action Plan, and the New Logic of China's Capital Account."

The issue examines China's simultaneous tightening of outbound investment controls and renewed efforts to attract foreign capital. It focuses on State Council Decree No. 837, effective 1 July 2026, and Beijing's June 15-measure Foreign Investment Action Plan.

The report argues that these measures are not contradictory. They reflect a new two-track capital strategy: China is opening selected inbound channels for foreign capital, expertise and market participation, while asserting stronger control over outbound investment, technology, services, data and offshore asset transfers.
