Set the Right Market-Entry Route

We determine the appropriate path based on your investment structure, business activities and expansion goals.

Handle Applications and Filings

We prepare and coordinate the required documentation, registrations and regulatory submissions.

Keep Your Operations Compliant

We stay across relevant requirements as your cross-border activities and market presence grow.

Proactive Visibility

You get regular reporting on filing status, deadlines and compliance risk across every market, so nothing depends on someone remembering to ask.

Cross-Border Compliance Services

Managing business across jurisdictions brings different regulatory, reporting and compliance requirements. We help coordinate these obligations so your cross-border activities remain compliant as you expand internationally.

Cross-border compliance services help businesses manage the regulatory, reporting, registration and other obligations that arise when transactions or operations span multiple jurisdictions. The exact requirements depend on the markets involved and the nature of the activity.

China ODI refers to investments made by Chinese businesses outside China. Depending on the investment, businesses may need to manage relevant registrations, filings and regulatory requirements before an overseas investment can move forward.

Mainland and free zone licences offer different routes for establishing and conducting business in the UAE. The right option depends on factors such as your business activities, operating plans, customers and where you intend to conduct business.

Circular 37 is a Chinese foreign-exchange regulation concerning Chinese residents who establish or control overseas special purpose vehicles for offshore financing or investment and related round-trip investment into China. Whether registration is required depends on the structure involved.

Requirements vary by investment type, destination and sector. Chinese investors may need to complete relevant approval or filing procedures, submit supporting information and address cross-border funding requirements before moving ahead with an overseas investment.
