In addition to the financial conditions such as net assets of no less than 50 million yuan and continuous profitability in the last three years, it is also necessary to carry out a series of conditions such as the matching of financial related business experience with the business scope of securities companies, and the coordination between taking shares in securities companies and their own long-term strategy. After the successful bidding, the bidder also needs to obtain the approval of the CSRC for change before it can become the final winner.
