Event Details

在过去的一年中,中国持续充实国家法律工具箱以应对外国国家制裁。今年年初,商务部颁布 《阻断外国法律与措施不当域外适用办法》("一号令"),以阻断外国法律和措施的"不正当域外适用"。2019年,中国宣布实施"不可靠实体清单"制度,以制约外国实体在国际经贸与活动中的相关行为。


今年6月10日,中国全国人大常委会表决通过了《反外国制裁法》。该法授权国务院相关部门查封、扣押、冻结直(间)接参与制定、决定、实施对中国公民、组织歧视性限制措施的个人、组织在中国境内的的资产,并拒发签证。该法还允许因遭受制裁而受到权益侵犯的中国企业向人民法院提起诉讼,要求相关外国个人(组织)停止侵害、赔偿损失——由此,在华外资企业应高度重视该法可能产生的影响以及潜在的合规风险。


上海美国商会将于7月20日(周二)上午 9:10 - 11:30 在上海美国商会会议中心与通力律师事务所(LLinks) 合伙人、企业合规法律服务组负责人潘永建律师以及博然思维咨询(Brunswick)合伙人李华女士与博然思维上海办公室负责人赵晓路女士共同举办《反外国制裁法》解读会,帮助会员更好地理解相关法律内容及对企业的潜在影响。潘永建律师将先从文件内容出发,介绍《反外国制裁法》的要点与背景,李华与赵晓路女士将为会员企业分析《反外国制裁法》的潜在影响以及企业的应对方案。


In the past year, China has increasingly used regulatory tools to counter foreign sanctions. At the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Commerce issued rules that block "unjustified extraterritorial application" of foreign laws. China also introduced an "unreliable entity list" system in 2019 that could punish foreign companies for taking discriminatory action against Chinese companies.


On June 10th, China passed the Anti-Foreign Sanctions law which codifies many of the earlier measures. The Anti-Foreign Sanctions law would allow the government to seize assets from and deny visas to companies or individuals who are involved in creating or implementing foreign sanctions. The vaguely worded law would also allow Chinese companies to sue foreign companies for losses caused by their compliance with sanctions. The laws could have a serious impact on many companies operating in China and lead to serious compliance issues.


AmCham Shanghai has organized a seminar on the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law to provide member companies with a better understanding of the law and its potential impact. The seminar will begin with a briefing on the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law by David Pan, Partner, Head of Corporate & Compliance Service Group at Llinks Law. Next, Li Hua, Partner, Brunswick and Veronica Xiaolu Zhao, Head of Shanghai Office, Brunswick will present on the impact of the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law and how companies can prepare for the law.
