He has regularly been engaged by law firms, multinationals, and government departments and agencies as an expert.
Generally termed as ‘corporate compliance’, a notable legal reform initiative has in recent years been rolled out across China to introduce the notion of non-prosecution or deferred prosecution conditioned on the culprit firms making satisfactory improvements on their internal control and compliance. Drawing upon a unique hand-collected dataset of Chinese court judgments, as well as qualitative data, this talk presents a perspective on how the implementation of the reform initiative highlights opportunities and challenges in future legal developments in the Greater Bay Area.
