Recent years have witnessed Chinese Internet companies taking positive actions in overseas mergers and acquisitions for various reasons. Grounded on the existing domestic and overseas literature as well as the specific case analysis of Tecent’ acquisition of Sumo Group, a British game developer, this research finds out that Chinese Internet enterprises may encounter legal risk, payment method risk and integration risk etc. in overseas M & A. On the basis of the identification of the risks, this research intends to put forward relevant measures to help contribute to the success of Chinese Internet enterprises’ overseas M & A.
