  • Overseas Arbitration Considerations For Chinese Entities (Mandarin)

    Overseas Arbitration Considerations For Chinese Entities (Mandarin)
    2022/09/01
    For Chinese entities considering arbitration outside of the PRC, there are a number of important issues to be aware of.

    In this episode, GJ Wang, Legal Director at M.B. KEMP LLP we will discuss some of the key considerations before commencing an overseas arbitration process, including selecting an arbitrator and the associated risks.

    To find out more about M.B. KEMP LLP, please visit www.kempllp.com

    GJ is the legal Director at M.B. KEMP LLP. He brings the technical excellence and ocean-deep legal knowledge you would expect from a maritime specialist with 30 years’ expertise in shipping, insurance, and international trade litigation and arbitration. But GJ, as he is known, attributes his distinguished track record to softer skills: the key to success in dispute resolution is to instill confidence on all sides.

    That belief in the importance of trust and strong communication sets the tone for his whole practice. A $30 million insurance dispute spanning three national jurisdictions and four major firms required him to convince all parties to agree on the applicable law in the case before they could broach a settlement.

    His bilingual fluency in Chinese and English makes him particularly in demand among Mainland businesses expanding internationally, but it’s the premium he places on relationship-building that turns GJ’s clients into long-term strategic partners and friends.

    When not elbow-deep in complex cross-border litigation, GJ can be found rolling up his sleeves in the kitchen or out on Hong Kong’s hiking trails. His interest in people informs his ambition to explore parts of China where the trails bring him into contact with new communities and cultures.

  • Arbitration Outside The PRC For Chinese Entities (Mandarin)

    Arbitration Outside The PRC For Chinese Entities (Mandarin)
    2022/08/25
    When it comes to settling disputes, more Chinese companies often look outside of their home country. This is largely due to the fact that there has been an increase in outbound investment by Chinese companies. As a result, many companies turn to overseas arbitration centres as a way to resolve disputes in a more timely manner.

    There are a number of arbitration centers around the world that have become popular choices for Chinese entities. These include the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), and the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC). Each of these centers has its own set of rules and procedures, which can make it easier for companies to resolve disputes quickly and efficiently.

    In this episode, GJ Wang, Legal Director at M.B. KEMP LLP talk to us to take a deeper look into this trend.

  • Russia Sanctions & Hong Kong

    Russia Sanctions & Hong Kong
    2022/08/11
    The recent Russia sanctions have been a topic of concern for many businesses. The sanctions, which were put in place in response to Russia's involvement in the Ukraine crisis, prohibit certain financial transactions and have limited access to international markets. In addition, the sanctions have also put pressure on Russian companies operating in Hong Kong. As a result of the sanctions, many Russian businesses have been forced to scale back their operations in the territory. The sanctions have also caused some banks to stop providing services to Russian companies. The impact of the sanctions is likely to be felt for some time to come. For businesses operating in or with ties to Russia, it is important to monitor the situation closely and make adjustments as necessary. The sanctions are a reminder of the risks involved in doing business in a volatile region and the importance of having a contingency plan in place.

    Anthony Chan, partner at M.B. KEMP LLP spoke with us to unpack the sanctions facing Russia and what this means for businesses in Hong Kong.
