Co-founder David? Rubinstein (DavidRubenstein) to China, opened a U.S. private equity fund that acquired Xugong (XugongGroup) prologue. XCMG is a Chinese state-owned construction equipment manufacturer.

"This is the Carlyle Group in terms of more than a landmark transaction," he said at the time. "It will be seen as U.S. companies Cooperation An important moment. "

Three years later, after a difficult negotiation, from the fierce political and public opposition, the Carlyle Group abandoned the acquisition.

De Nero and Rubenstein said Carlyle Group in dollars, funds focused on Asia-related investment can participate in, and this partnership will further enhance the reputation of Carlyle in China.

Rubinstein said that the Beijing government "will be able to prove our reputation as a reliable institution, they will reduce the bureaucracy created by shuffling going on, and help us deal."

But some analysts warned that the municipal government to maintain such a close relationship, might face political interference and corruption Carlyle deal of risk.

In 2008, with the notable case, a top Communist Party official in Shanghai was sentenced to 18 years on charges will be moved to the city's huge pension to his friends and associates controlled investment project.

Rubinstein ignore such concerns: "I am worried about too many things in life, but I do not worry about being forced to do certain things partners."
