Asia Economic and Legal Outlook Seminar

Amid the uncertainty and challenges that defined 2022 which expect to continue in 2023, Asia economies are hitting their stride as pandemic supply-chain disruptions fade and the service sector booms. Underpin by the accelerated economic growth and favourable Asia macro-outlook in the long run, Asia remains an attractive destination for foreign investment. 

For investors who are looking to build or expand their footholds in Asia, we were pleased to invite our clients to our Asia Update seminar. Our panelists talked about the latest foreign investment policy and business environment in Asia focusing in particularly on China, Japan and Southeast Asia markets. Moderated by Mario Pofahl, Linklaters’ Head of German Asia Desk, our panelists from the Tokyo, Shanghai and Singapore offices joined the session in Frankfurt in person, covering the following topics and closing the seminar with a Q&A session:

China: Key Policy Direction from the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China

Japan: Top trends and changes in M&A that investors need to know

Southeast Asia: Where to look for the growth exposure and dealmaking opportunities
