TikTok deal to include new investors with ByteDance; Oracle to keep cloud agreement: CNBC
- US and Chinese officials reached an agreement on a framework to transfer TikTok's US operations to American companies during bilateral discussions held over the weekend in Spain.
- This agreement follows a US law passed last year requiring ByteDance to divest its US TikTok operations due to concerns over user data access by the Chinese government.
- The deal involves new and existing ByteDance investors, with Oracle keeping its role managing TikTok's data and software updates, and completion expected within 30 to 45 days.
- Economist Liang Yan indicated that the agreement might involve a revised ownership structure or permit the United States to license certain proprietary technologies, while Beijing could aim to obtain reductions in tariffs or easing of high-tech export restrictions.
- The framework deal aims to secure national security while enabling TikTok's continued US operations, with a confirming call planned on Friday between Presidents Trump and Xi Jinping.
