Details

The best way to deal with liabilities in China is to know the relevant law and to use legal means to avoid legal liabilities. No one should enter into business in China without a solid understanding of the legal framework and potential risks. When engaging in high risk activities, business professionals should be clear on potential risks and the relevant safety precautions. Detailed contracts should be used so that each party is clear about its responsibilities under and benefits in relation to the transaction as well as any conditional or contingent terms. Most importantly, foreign businesses in China should be aware of criminal laws and criminal liability.

Joint Ventures in China: Dealing with Liabilities is based on the author’s decade of practical experience in anticipating, avoiding and resolving problems which arise for foreign businesses in China. This book explains how to build a sound programme for minimizing exposure to risk and can be used as a reference tool for dealing with liabilities should they arise.
