"We'll be delighted to see foreign enterprises taking part in the mixed-ownership reform," Assets Supervision and Administration Commission chief Xiao Yaqing said at a press conference on Saturday.
The reforms aim to diversify the ownership structure of the country’s state-owned enterprises.
China will continue to open up and push mixed-ownership reform forward, Xiao said.
He added that the regulator would ensure the rights and interests of all investors participating in the programme.
China has undergone three rounds of mixed-ownership reform, reports Xinhua. One round covered telecom giant China Unicorn bringing in private investment through issuing shares.
