This timing coincides closely with the expiration of a five-year grace period for foreign-invested companies to adjust to China’s Company Law by the beginning of 2025.

The revised Company Law presents several new requirements for businesses, including updates to capital contribution rules for limited liability companies (LLCs), new diligence requirements for management and supervisors, and the requirement of an employee representative on boards of directors of some companies. It also includes new options for companies, such as the ability of companies with a small number of shareholders or a small scale of business to have no supervisor, the option for an audit committee in lieu of a supervisory board or individual supervisors for LLCs and greater freedom to choose which personnel can serve as legal representative.

During this seminar, participants will gain valuable insights as the experts delve into the intricacies of the New Company Law, offering expertise on the challenges faced by foreign-invested companies in China, with focus on limited liability companies. The discussion will focus on common issues and specific challenges encountered by foreign companies operating in China.

China's ESG regulations have developed significantly in recent years setting mandatory framework for certain industries. With the revised Company Law stipulating that companies, when doing business, shall “fully consider” the interests of their employees as well as environmental protection, and are encouraged to publish social responsibility reports, it becomes clear that companies need to ensure their compliance also in the ESG area. The developing ESG legal framework makes it difficult for companies to maintain a detailed and comprehensive overview.
