[2] In 2006 CITIC Capital, another subsidiary of CITIC Group, had also acquired 20% stake of the company, [3] which was re-acquired by CITIC Group.

[6] However, the initial public offering of CITIC Corporation Limited was abandoned; It was takeover by CITIC Pacific ( SEHK267), another subsidiary of CITIC Group in 2014 as a reverse IPO; the Chinese name of CITIC Corporation Limited had also dropped the word "shares" ( Chinese: 中国中信有限公司).
