There are two main reasons to enter into a JV with a local partner:1)
When entering certain industries, it is required to have a local partner according to the restrictions in China
2)
When a local partner can offer tangible benefits such as well-established distribution channels, government relations (locally known as guanxi
) or other assets that would be relatively inefficient for the foreign investors to acquire on its own.

oint Venture
Types
Equity Joint Venture (EJV)
An EJV is a Chinese Limited Liability Company (LLC) shared between a Chinese and a foreign party. Each participant contributes to the venture in financial terms by way of an investment of capital and has a stake in the business. This is similar to the holding of shares in a limited liability company.
Cooperative Joint Venture (CJV):
A CJV offers a flexible way to conduct business with a Chinese partner. This legal framework allows individual agreements such as profit sharing, which need not be restricted to the equity contributions. It differs mainly with the Equity Joint Venture in that the foreign investor may repatriate his original investment before the expiration of the Joint Venture.
