The PRC Company Law allows company shareholders to make capital contributions with certain non-cash assets that include equity in other companies. The State Administration for Industry and Commerce recently promulgated the Measures for the Administration of the Registration of Capital Contribution in the Form of Equity (SAIC Measures) to establish a procedure for the registration of equity capital contributions. The SAIC Measures apply to purely domestic companies as well as foreign investment enterprises (FIEs). In the case of FIEs, foreign investment approvals from Ministry of Commerce or its local counterparts are also required for equity capital contributions, but there has not been a formal procedure for such approvals until the issuance of the Interim Provisions of the Ministry of Commerce for Equity Investments in Foreign Investment Enterprises (Interim Provisions). Learn more about the Interim Provisions.

Many in-house practitioners work in multi-national corporations. Oftentimes, their assigned business units operate across national boundaries, with legal advice delivered to business heads/executives in various parts of the world. Many jurisdictions do not recognize the attorney-client privilege, making legal advice rendered subject to disclosure/discovery. Our panel will explore the basis for the attorney-client privilege, where it does/does not exist, and how to intermarry the lack of attorney-client privilege with the way a practitioner delivers advice of counsel in an international business environment and manages litigation/discovery issues that arise.

As more companies go global, in-house counsel must manage litigation where a foreign entity is sued in the United States or litigate a matter in Europe. Not only must in-house counsel educate overseas managers about the reality of litigation in the United States and learn various rules abroad, but they also face the difficult task of determining what is discoverable and how to conduct investigations to comply with the demands of US courts and stringent EU data and privacy regulations. This panel will focus on highlighting the differences between the key stages of litigation in the European Union and the United States, using real-world examples to help in-house counsel better prepare to deal with the practical implications of litigation involving multiple jurisdictions.
