Nexperia Chips Begin Flowing From China Again Amid Tensions
Dutch government may drop control over chipmaker Nexperia after China approved export licenses, easing chip supply concerns for European automotive industry.
- On Thursday, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce approved export licenses to resume Nexperia chip exports, and unnamed sources say the Netherlands may rescind its ministerial order.
- On September 30 the government used the Goods Availability Act to give Economic Affairs Minister Vincent Karremans veto power over Nexperia, aiming to block technology transfers to Wingtech.
- Nexperia's operations show it runs front-end manufacturing in Germany and the United Kingdom while a significant share of packaging and distribution occurs in China, with Zhang Xuezheng saying the Chinese division operates independently after Dutch intervention.
- Europe's automotive sector faces eased shortages if shipments resume, and Karremans said, `The Netherlands will closely monitor and support these developments, and will take the appropriate steps on our part where necessary.'
- Tensions have begun to ease, yet the battle for control over Nexperia remains unresolved as China criticizes the Dutch intervention and urges a constructive solution.
