Are you an in-house counsel, a contract manager, a transactional or arbitration lawyer? When you received a call from your management team or your client at 6:30 pm asking you to conclude an arbitration clause within a few hours before the deal is sealed, how do you secure the best possible arbitration clause for your company or client, while bearing your business objectives in mind and making sure that the corporate policy is followed? What are the key points to consider while drafting the clause? What issues can you concede in return for more favourable terms in other parts of the arbitration clause? The recent legislative developments on arbitration, such as the interim measures between mainland China and Hong Kong, and the allowing of third-party funding, further complicate these issues.

The London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) is one of the world's leading international arbitration institutions. With English law continuing to be a predominant choice of law for many international contracts, the LCIA has seen a record number of arbitration cases referred to the LCIA under the LCIA Rules in the past years.

In the Far East, the Shanghai International Arbitration Court (SHIAC 上海国际仲裁中心) (formerly known as the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission Shanghai Commission) is strategically poised as an arbitration centre located in mainland China to service both Chinese parties and an increasing number of foreign parties in the resolution of commercial disputes.

Different markets and regulatory regimes give rise to different needs and requirements for arbitration users. Through the past decades, the LCIA and SHIAC have both shown a tailored approach to address these market demands while striving to achieve the common goal of offering efficient, impartial and effective dispute resolution services at an international standard.

China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) published the draft Export Control Law for public comments via a circular on 16th June 2017. If enacted, the China's new Export Control Law will be the first set of comprehensive and unified export control legislation in China, which is aimed at upgrading the country's existing regime consisting of various administrative regulations and rules.
In March 2019, the State Council issued its legislative proposal for 2018. Amongst the proposed bills for submission to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress this year is the Export Control Law. There is no guarantee that this bill will be passed into law this year but it is high on China’s priority list and is widely expected to be enacted within the calendar year.
The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China welcomes Courtney Zhou, Consultant at Control Risks and Baker McKenzie to discuss the the latest development of China’s proposed Export Control Law, how the respective lists may be enacted in the continuing trade war, and how business with China be affected by this control scheme.
