Join AmCham China's Oil, Energy and Power Forum for a briefing on China's Anti-Monopoly Law (AML) and the implications for businesses operating in China's energy industry and other monopoly sectors.
The competition law in China has been in place for over five years, and it has become clear that regulators are not shying away from enforcement action, such as recent anti-monopoly investigations in China's infant formula and pharmaceutical sectors. In this briefing, Mark Jephcott, head of the Asia competition practice at Herbert Smith Freehills and Monica Sun, partner of the Global Energy Practice at Herbert Smith Freehills, will address the legal aspects of the application and enforcement (including investigations) of the Anti-Monopoly Law, including: An overview of the framework of the AML (for both antitrust and mergers); recent developments and trends in the enforcement of the AML; and implications of the AML for businesses in the energy industry and other monopoly sectors.
