The primary focus for the Nvidia-Arm deal is the fact that an American company is acquiring the globally recognized tech company, hence putting China at the direct hands of Americans.
On September 13, 2020, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) and SoftBank Group Corporation (OTCMKTS: SFTBY) jointly announced that the former would acquire Arm Limited for a $40 billion deal. However, with regulatory approval from different jurisdictions including China, the deal is likely to face strong opposition from the Chinese government.
Sebastian Hou, managing director and head of technology research at CLSA, said:
“We think that China will pose the biggest challenge (in terms of regulatory hurdles)”.
The primary focus for the Nvidia-Arm deal is the fact that an American company is acquiring the globally recognized tech company, hence putting China at the direct hands of Americans. He added:
“If it’s going to be owned by American company Nvidia, then that will give more ability for the USA government to sanction, to control the technology access of China”.
With the United States based companies acquiring overseas tech companies at an unprecedented rate, China is expected to hit back. This is solely based on the fact that both countries are fighting to hold the number one position in the global economic hub and also tech sector leader.
Sebastian Hou said, adding that many tech companies in China depend on Arm:
“That would become the biggest nightmare for the Chinese government”.
