Effective from July 1, 2024, the sixth revision of China’s Company Law represents a sweeping overhaul of China’s existing Company Law. From stricter capital injection rules and enhanced corporate governance to the company liquidation process, the changes introduced in the New Company Law have far-reaching implications for businesses, including foreign-invested enterprises (FIEs) operating in or entering the China market.

FIEs are advised to thoroughly understand the provisions of the New Company Law, how it will affect them, and initiate necessary adjustments to ensure compliance and optimize strategic planning. It is crucial that companies commence preemptive assessments and actions early on, recognizing that several aspects may entail lengthy processes, including reporting to overseas headquarters, seeking board-level approvals, adjusting agreements, and negotiating with domestic partners (in the case of JVs).

In this event, Richie He, Assistant Manager from Business Advisory Services team, and Daisy Huang, Director of Audit from Corporate Accounting Services team, will guide you through the key amendments that may impact existing and new FIEs and relevant stakeholders. We will illuminate the practical implications and demonstrate how the New Company Law may shape future business transactions and arrangements.

• New provisions in the 2024 Company Law
