China's leading chip-maker is on the verge of filing for an initial public offering that could raise as much as $1bn.
Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) is a foundry manufacturer, often used by overseas integrated circuit designers.
It is expected to seek a listing on exchanges in Hong Kong and New York, according to a report in today's FT. Credit Suisse First Boston and Deutsche Bank are believed to have been appointed to handle the IPO, which could take place as early as February next year.
The main investors in Cayman Islands-registered SMIC are Goldman Sachs, Singapore's state investment agency, Temasek, VC H&Q Asia Pacific and, following the sale of a north China fab to the company, Motorola.
SMIC has three facilities in Shanghai and is building another in Beijing.
