Affected by the epidemic, economies around the world have been hard hit, forcing many companies to face difficult HR challenges. In these uncertain times, companies must efficiently allocate their human resources by adjusting their internal organization structure and salary structure in order to guarantee long term sustainable development. However, the tasks involved in these adjustments, such as downsizing and salary reduction, are not your common everyday tasks done by your HR team. Many companies lack experience dealing with these types of matters and can open themselves up to legal risks if not handled properly.

The US-China relation has been in turmoil as of recent. The trade war gave way to the US-China Phase One Trade Deal which has helped accelerate some opening in the financial services sector. However, as the relationship is further subjected to a lot of strain, doubts remain in the horizon about what fruits will bear this tension and what impact will the financial services sector take. This event tries to tackle this and much more, explaining in detail possible scenarios that we need to consider and be ready for. To present a detailed picture of the situation we will count with the expertise of Michael Hirson who leads Eurasia's Group's coverage of China.

For multinational corporations operating in China, repatriating cash from their subsidiaries has always been an important but challenging issue. China maintains a strict system of foreign exchange controls, meaning funds flowing into and out of China are tightly regulated.
Further, depending on the bilateral Double Taxation Agreements between China and the contracting country where the foreign parent company is located, generating income in China has tax implications which might affect the overall tax burden of both the China-based subsidiary company and the foreign parent company.
