Overview (Program Summary)
A program hosted by:
ACC Singapore2025 will see how seismic political shifts from election outcomes last year across the world are going to play out in the field of business. As general counsels brace themselves, how can they be proactive and strategic in assessing risks and seizing opportunities from these power transitions and ensure their organisations are ahead of regulatory compliance and the competition?
As corporations begin to assess their unique risks and opportunities, they are looking to their general counsels to help them stay ahead of shifting political landscapes, trade tensions and evolving regulations. Today’s general counsels are not just responding to change, they are proactively managing risk and seizing opportunities for transformation.
Our expert panel featuring speakers from TikTok and FTI Consulting, will cover topics including:
- The Emerging World Order for Business and Legal: The regulatory and enforcement policy shifts awaiting Asia businesses under President Donald Trump.
- An Escalating Trade War: What businesses in Asia can do to prepare for incoming tariffs to mitigate the impact on their operations and enterprise value.
Increased Cyber Threats: Exploring the potential impact of trade tensions on cyber threats: Will threat actors respond with retaliatory cyber attacks, utilising international market instability to exploit the situation to their criminal advantage?
- How can GCs enhance their strategic value to the enterprise in this fast-changing environment? How can global businesses get above the political fray and ahead of legal and regulatory complications in an era of rising nationalism and protectionism?
