More About Ken
With the containment of the COVID-19 outbreak in sight, recent policies and initiatives the government has rolled out, particularly on foreign investment, give further clues about China’s determination to normalize and stimulate its economic activities by appealing to foreign investors to cushion the financial impact caused by the pandemic crisis. Clients, who have carried out a long-term business in Mainland China, look for more commercial and strategic legal advice on their China-related matters in such pandemic period and practical solutions for proposed investments.
Renowned for innovative thinking and commercial acuity, Ken’s experience spans the full suite of corporate and real estate sectors. He advises clients on foreign direct investment into China and representing companies in relation to the transactions including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, general corporate governance, and premises and office leasing. Ken is also highly active in advising Chinese outbound investors on their Australian investments across a wide range of sectors, including high-tech, energy and resources and dairy products companies.
Ken is known for his “hands-on” approach and commitment to clients in their pursuit of corporate objectives. Ken boasts significant international experience, and has acted in various complex PRC and cross-border transactions involving multiple legal systems, time zones and industries.
