The Ministry of Commerce of China<\/span><\/span> has warned of the possibility of a new global semiconductor supply crisis due to the conflict surrounding chipmaker Nexperia<\/span><\/span>, according to ITReseller<\/span><\/span>. The dispute between the company\u2019s Dutch headquarters and its Chinese division is escalating and has already raised concerns within the automotive industry.<\/p>\n

Nexperia is one of the key manufacturers of semiconductors used in automotive electronics. Its chips are used in control systems, power management, and other electronic components in vehicles, meaning that any disruption to the company\u2019s operations could quickly affect global supply chains.<\/p>\n

The conflict began after authorities in The Hague<\/span><\/span> decided to take control of the company, which had previously been owned by the Chinese corporation Wingtech<\/span><\/span>. Management of the shares was subsequently transferred to a Dutch lawyer as part of a legal process.<\/p>\n

Nexperia\u2019s Chinese division did not agree with these changes and in September announced its independence from the headquarters in the Netherlands<\/span><\/span>. Since then, the two sides have accused each other of actions that complicate negotiations and destabilize the company\u2019s operations.<\/p>\n

A new escalation occurred after the Chinese division stated that employee service accounts in China<\/span><\/span> had been blocked. According to representatives of the unit, this significantly complicated the company\u2019s day-to-day activities.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s Ministry of Commerce said such actions had \u201cseriously disrupted the company\u2019s normal production and operations.\u201d The ministry warned that if the conflict leads to a new global crisis in semiconductor production and supply chains, the Netherlands<\/span><\/span> should bear responsibility.<\/p>\n

Nexperia\u2019s headquarters did not deny the reports of IT restrictions but emphasized that they had not affected production at the chip assembly and testing plant in Guangdong Province<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Concerns about potential disruptions are not unfounded. At an earlier stage of the conflict last autumn, serious supply problems emerged after China<\/span><\/span> introduced export controls on Nexperia chips produced in the country.<\/p>\n

Despite mediation efforts by Beijing<\/span><\/span>, The Hague<\/span><\/span>, and institutions of the European Union<\/span><\/span>, tensions remain high. Moreover, the company\u2019s headquarters has suspended shipments of silicon wafers to the Chinese facility, further complicating the situation.<\/p>\n

Nexperia\u2019s products are widely used in the automotive industry, meaning that any serious disruption in production could quickly affect car manufacturers worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":151273,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-151272","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/151272","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/151273"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=151272"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=151272"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=151272"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=151272"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
