Ownership of the MG brand has changed hands many times over the years, the most notable (arguably) when it became a part of British Leyland (BLMC) and later the MG Rover group.
In 2006, MG was purchased by the Nanjing Automobile Group – which itself later became a part of the Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (commonly known as SAIC). SAIC are the owners of MG around the world.
