Foreign investors have become important participants in China's capital market, he noted.
Liu said reform measures aimed at improving investment and financing functions in China's capital market have progressed steadily and delivered tangible results, while overall market valuations remain within a reasonable range.
Foreign investors are showing increasing willingness to allocate funds to high-quality Chinese assets, he added.
As of April this year, the CSRC had processed 418 registration applications from domestic enterprises seeking to make initial public offerings in overseas markets, supporting companies in leveraging both domestic and overseas markets and resources, according to Liu.
