Associations and Alliances

Foreign firms entering the Hong Kong and PRC markets have had mixed success with local associations. Where a market entry or expansion strategy involves an association, alliance or other form of combination, we;-

• provide an overview of the relevant regulatory framework;
• consider objectively with you the firm’s aims, market focus, reputation and position; identify potential associates or alliance partners and assess their impact on and compatibility with your firm culture, reputation and goals;
• conduct initial due diligence; and
• provide advice and assistance during negotiations on the formation of an association or alliance.
