China Momentum and Challenges Momentum The surge of China investment is both policy-driven and market-driven. Policies such as the National IC promotion Guidelines (2014) as well as the 13 th five-year plan (2016-2020) are the key drivers of the new fab projects blossoms across the country. The huge demand and rising Chinese electronics OEMs also play an important role in attracting foreign semiconductor companies to set up facilities in China. Challenges There is no shortage of capital for semiconductor fab projects in China. The limiting factor will be the availability of talent and technologies/ip. The concerns of adding massive capacity in certain product categories may trigger oversupply in the long run. China faces regulatory challenges to successfully complete outbound M&A in tech sectors.
Summary
Summary Fab Investment Foundry, 3D NAND and China investments key to spending Overall Capacity to grow 2% and 3% in 2016 and 2017. The Surge of China 20 new projects on the horizon from 2016 onwards. Investment in foundry and memory segments are paving the way for China s place on the global semiconductor stage.
