Haiwen & Partners' trio of esteemed partners—Julia Zhang, Su Hao, and Huang Benran—represented the firm at the recently concluded Second SIPAC International Legal Exchange and Cooperation Forum, where they offered their distinctive insights.
Julia presided over a highly anticipated roundtable discussion titled "The View from other Key BRICS Jurisdictions on the Evolving Geopolitical Landscape around the World". Representing China’s viewpoint, Julia was accompanied by prominent law firm partners from the BRICS founding nations: Murillo Allevato from Bichara Advogados of Brazil, Maxim Alekseyev from ALRUD of Russia, Atul Pandey from Khaitan & Co of India, and Kenny Chiu from ENS of South Africa. The distinguished guests shared the impact and insights from the Kazan BRICS Summit held in October this year, emphasizing that the new economic and financial infrastructure established by BRICS countries is not a rejection of the existing global order, but rather an opportunity to foster greater trade flexibility and rebalance for member nations. As global geopolitics evolve, trade and investment relations between BRICS countries and China are revealing more avenues for enhancement. The experts highlighted new avenues for BRICS cooperation and provided invaluable perspectives for Chinese enterprises investing in these nations, drawing on specific cases and insights. The diverse national viewpoints enriched this thematic roundtable, offering attendees rare and distinctive insights.
Su helmed a professional forum titled " Outbound M&A – avoiding common mistakes at each stage of the M&A process," which emerged as a conference highlight. In this forum, Su engaged in a dialogue with law firm partners from Germany, Switzerland, Turkey, Hong Kong, Japan, and other jurisdictions on key issues and strategies in the M&A process. The forum guests, leveraging their extensive regional practical experience, shared insights on identifying and mitigating risks in the M&A process and optimizing deal structures to maximize value. Their discussions spanned the entire spectrum, from conducting due diligence and preparing transaction documents to deal completion, delivery, and post-delivery integration, offering practical advice and solutions to help attendees navigate the complex M&A process and ensure seamless transactions.
Benran's forum zeroed in on the critical issue of " Outbound greenfield investment structures – what works and what does not work". In this comprehensive discussion, law firm partners from Finland, the United States, Japan, Brazil, Cyprus, and other countries shared their profound insights on greenfield investment structures. They presented trends of greenfield investments by Chinese-funded enterprises in various countries and regions, the primary advantages of greenfield investments, the influence of local legal environments on greenfield investments, and key risk points to consider. They also discussed strategies for designing legal, effective, and resilient investment structures. By comparing case studies and practical strategies from different countries, attendees gained invaluable insights crucial for planning and executing greenfield investment projects, aiding them in making more informed decisions in their global investment strategies.
The forum drew over 70 independent law firm partners from more than 50 countries and regions globally, as well as over 200 chief legal officers and compliance officers from major Chinese enterprises, law firm partners, and senior attorneys. Participants engaged in comprehensive and in-depth discussions on key issues such as Chinese enterprises' overseas investments, compliance, and geopolitics. The forum was lauded as the "IBA Conference relocated to China." The contributions of Haiwen & Partners' partners at the conference were highly praised by attendees, reaffirming Haiwen's leading position in the field of international legal services. We remain committed to providing clients with comprehensive, high-quality legal services and safeguarding the globalization development of Chinese enterprises.
