BlackRock last week voluntarily cancelled the business registration of its wholly foreign-owned enterprise unit in Shanghai, according to the website of the Asset Management Association of China .Last August, BlackRock became the first global asset manager to win Chinese regulatory approval to set up a mutual fund unit in the country, and was given six months to establish the business.China fully opened its US$3.3 trillion mutual fund industry to foreign managers last April.
But not all are confident of succeeding in a market crowded with 147 players and 8,202 mutual fund products.Earlier this month, Vanguard Group dropped a plan to obtain a mutual funds licence in China, citing a"crowded" market.
