Main contents: With the removal of investment limits, the Draft combines the capital administration of both qualified foreign institutional investors (QFIIs) and renminbi qualified foreign institutional investors (RQFIIs), subjecting both to just the registration of their domestic investment capital with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (Part Two).
The Draft also combines currency administration, QFIIs and RQFIIs may remit their investment capital inward in foreign currencies or renminbi, or both (Article 8).

Accounting procedures are also simplified, foreign institutional investors are only required to submit an undertaking of tax payment when remitting aggregate investment returns outward and no longer need to submit an audit report on investment returns (Article 13).
