If your company is doing business outside the United States, you need to attend this session to be brought up-to-date on all applicable privacy laws. Many global organizations have had to change the way they handle personal information and privacy issues. Personal data that used to be considered public and obvious has since become a sensitive issue, both from a legal and PR perspective, and applicable laws are now being enforced with more rigor.

The worldwide financial crisis has affected more than just stock markets and the economies of individual countries. It has significantly impacted where and how companies operate and make decisions about Foreign Direct Investments (FDI), particularly in Asia. This session will be conducted as a roundtable discussion of experts who have first-hand experiences in the region. They will discuss the short and long-term effects of the crisis on FDI. The roundtable will also highlight the risks and opportunities that now exist in China, India, Southeast Asia, Russia, Japan and Korea.

The global expansion of criminal risk for international companies and their executives progresses with lightning speed: some countries are setting even more stringent standards than in the US. Cooperation between international agencies is growing. The EU arrest warrant now allows arrest by foreign prosecutors without the need for a court process and extradition from the US is a real possibility. Given the high financial and reputational damage that criminal liability causes, in–house counsel need to understand the risks that their global companies and executives face.

The European Union has been preparing new rules on the provision of financial services across EU borders, called MiFid, that will apply broadly across Europe and allow easier and broader access to European financial markets through a common set of rules. At the same time, outside financial services firms are advancing at a fast pace in China, taking advantage of continuing liberalization efforts there. Take this opportunity to learn about the legal issues that corporate counsel and compliance staff should be most concerned about when it comes to expansion efforts in the E.U.

Compliance in Asia: It is harder than you think. Each country in Asia has its own compliance issues and in-house counsel must be alert to them. You must know how to spot the main red flags and to determine what is coming next. And, you must handle these issues effectively and with consideration of the cultural impact of your proposed solution. This session was a straight talking, direct and open assessment of what goes on and what to look out for.
