STATUTORY RESERVES AND RESTRICTED NET ASSETS
STATUTORY RESERVES AND RESTRICTED NET ASSETS	18. STATUTORY RESERVES AND RESTRICTED NET ASSETS In accordance with the PRC laws and regulations, the group is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely general reserve, enterprise expansion reserve, and staff welfare and bonus reserve, all of which are appropriated from net profit as reported in their PRC statutory accounts. The Group’s subsidiaries are required to allocate at least 10% of their after-tax profits to the general reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of their respective registered capital. Appropriations to the enterprise expansion reserve and the staff welfare and bonus reserve are to be made at the discretion of the board of directors of each of the Group’s subsidiaries. There are no appropriations to these reserves by the Group’s PRC (mainland) subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. As a result of these PRC laws and regulations and the requirement that distributions by the PRC entities can only be paid out of distributable profits computed in accordance with the PRC GAAP, the PRC entities are restricted from transferring a portion of their net assets to the Group. Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and the statutory reserves of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIEs. As of December 31, 2019, the amounts of capital represented the amount of net assets of the relevant subsidiaries and VIEs in the Group not available for distribution amounted to $6,266.
