Antitrust <strong>and</strong><br />
Competition<br />
Our Beijing office has a highly<br />
competent team of Chinese antitrust<br />
specialists that work closely with<br />
our antitrust team in the EU. They<br />
are familiar with, <strong>and</strong> comfortable<br />
in, the developing <strong>and</strong> sometimes<br />
unpredictable Chinese regulatory<br />
framework. They regularly assist<br />
multinationals <strong>and</strong> private equity<br />
firms with their merger control<br />
filings in <strong>China</strong>. They also represent<br />
large <strong>China</strong> producers <strong>and</strong> exporters<br />
in the anti-dumping proceedings<br />
initiated in the EU against<br />
Chinese imports.<br />
Employment<br />
<strong>and</strong> Benefits<br />
The need to be fully aware of your<br />
obligations as an employer has never<br />
been more critical. Markets are<br />
increasingly global. Technology has<br />
increased the risk of misconduct.<br />
Anti-discrimination legislation is<br />
affecting the workplace <strong>and</strong> pension<br />
rights grow steadily. Our team in<br />
Mainl<strong>and</strong> <strong>China</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong><br />
is experienced in advising on all<br />
areas of employment <strong>and</strong> benefits<br />
law, including the termination<br />
of employment, enforcement<br />
of restrictive covenants <strong>and</strong><br />
confidentiality obligations.<br />
Regulatory<br />
We have been in <strong>China</strong> for<br />
some 21 years <strong>and</strong> we have developed<br />
in-depth relationships with the<br />
key Chinese regulators including<br />
CBRC, CSRC, SAFE, NDRC,<br />
MOFCOM <strong>and</strong> many regulators at<br />
local level including in key locations<br />
such as Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin,<br />
Chengdu, Hangzhou, Guangzhou,<br />
<strong>and</strong> Shenzhen.<br />
<strong>Allen</strong> & <strong>Overy</strong> has a team of<br />
regulatory experts that work closely<br />
with regulators, <strong>and</strong> who keep track<br />
of the ever-changing legislation<br />
<strong>and</strong> advise regulated entities <strong>and</strong><br />
corporations on the full spectrum<br />
of regulatory issues to manage<br />
<strong>and</strong> minimise operational <strong>and</strong><br />
business risks.
