Antitrust and Competition

Businesses with interests, operations, and investments in China may face a host of challenges, including investigations by China’s anti-monopoly enforcement agencies and compliance requirements in joint ventures and strategic alliances.

Yuanda provides comprehensive legal services across the full range of antitrust and competition matters under China’s anti-monopoly law. We represent clients in cartel and antitrust investigations, civil and criminal cases, and antitrust issues in the context of business cooperation, distribution, licensing, joint development, pooling arrangements, and intellectual property disputes. We also advise on consumer protection and advertising matters, as well as distribution and pricing practices such as price discrimination, promotional allowances and services, and individual and system-wide dealer termination matters. The practice also covers international antitrust and competition compliance, and provides legal counsel in merger filings and clearance, joint ventures and trade association matters.

Combining firsthand knowledge of enforcement trends with in-depth experience, our team offers creative, result-oriented legal advice to clients pursuing their strategic objectives on a local, regional, national, and global basis.
