This document summarizes the US-China Business Council's (USCBC) Board of Directors' Statement of Priorities in the US-China commercial relationship. It identifies several priority issues to strengthen the relationship between the US and China, including finalizing a high-standard bilateral investment treaty, reducing foreign investment restrictions in China, prohibiting cyber-enabled commercial espionage, ensuring a level playing field for all companies in China, and improving transparency in areas such as antitrust reviews and rulemaking. The statement calls for both governments to work with business to address these issues and further expand the mutually beneficial commercial relationship.

The fifth and final session of the 12th National People’s Congress concluded with no significant change in policy direction. While there were few surprises in this year’s gathering, the meetings gave a fresh view on the priorities of the administration and the implications for those operating in China.
This year’s meetings are the warm up act to the much more important 19th Party Congress at the end of this year when Xi Jinping will end his first five-year term as head of the Communist Party of China and when a number of the most senior members of the Party are expected to retire. The question is not if Xi Jinping stays for a second term (that’s a certainty), it is who will join him in the Politburo and the Standing Committee as this will influence the next five years and give early indication whether he may break with recent precedent and stay for a third term (2022-2027).
In this year’s report we look at how the Chinese authorities are seeking to balance growth, economic reform, and stability. Last year, the authorities spelled out a desire to achieve growth and reform—including drastically reducing overcapacity—while ensuring stability and enduring minimal pain. Achieving this simultaneously remains extremely challenging. This year they talked extensively about the reform agenda and its role in ensuring long-term growth, yet the importance of stability leading into the 19th Party Congress later this year is potentially even more important. “Stability is of overriding importance,” stressed Li Keqiang. Other key topics at this year’s sessions beyond ensuring reform and continued growth included a focus on job creation and poverty alleviation.
Covid19 has started a new era in the world for all of us this year in the early 2020, starting from last quarter of 2019. Here in this presentation, we take a look at what holds in our future in terms of global trade, economy, supply chain, production, employment, balance of power, politics, opportunities, money. #economist #covid19 #globaltrade #export #supplychains #finance #production #economy #2020 #protectionism #newnormality #newnormal2020 #globalbusiness
Economists See Clouds in the Silver LiningYardi Matrix

At a time when optimism is rampant in the real estate industry, and the stock market is near all-time highs after a massive run-up, economists lived up to their billing as dismal scientists at the National Association of Business Economists (NABE) annual policy conference in Washington, D.C., last week.
Although the immediate state of the economy is healthy, economists lamented the country’s long-term fiscal situation, recently made worse by the tax reform passed by Congress. They were also pessimistic about the prospects for policy solutions, which include prudent immigration reform and fewer—not more—restrictions on global trade, given the growing populism that is producing an electorate with increasingly polarized views in the U.S. and Europe.
“I’m concerned that the political system has not come to grips with sensible fiscal policy,” said Alice Rivlin, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and former vice chair of the Federal Reserve and director of the White House Office of Management and Budget.

Tax reduction for economic developmentM S Siddiqui
The policy makers in Bangladesh prefer higher both income tax and customs duty in order to finance the development work defying the advice of economists. The own experience of tax reduction and reform in tax law since 1990s has increases higher revenue collection. Bangladesh should listen to economist and learn from the experience of two economies and ignore own experiences.

Perspectives on China from the Middle MarketCBIZ, Inc.
Lately, there has been discussion around the impact of trade disputes, pandemics and exchange rates on the supply chains of middle-market manufacturers and distributors, as well as those selling products within China. In this article, our experts offer six perspectives for U.S. Manufacturers & Distributors with relationships in China.

Question 1=
"Looking Back"
Please respond to the following:
Focusing on the course content and assignments, discuss the single most surprising or interesting thing you learned during this course. Explain what made it so and why you were surprised or interested.
The most surprising and interesting thing that I learned during this course was the amount of resources available to help guide businesses in successful import and export operations. The BIS website alone provided a wealth of information and through additional research and the e-activities I feel that we were exposed to a vast wealth of knowledge.
In the context of security and regulatory compliance, summarize what you have learned during this course in 50 words or less (about six sentences).
I learned that security and regulatory compliance can be challenging and that following best practices is one of the best ways to ensure success. I learned the the CBP is an agency that is heavily involved in many aspects of our nations security. Another important take-away from this class has been the importance of documentation. Documentation on both the import and export sides require strict attention to detail and it was good to learn that something as simple as a wrong INCO term can seriously effect the outcome.

Focusing on the course content and assignments, discuss the single most surprising or interesting thing you learned during this course. Explain what made it so and why you were surprised or interested.
In the context of security and compliance, summarize what you have learned during this course in 50 words or less (about six sentences).
During this course I have learned so much, from security and compliance to INCO terms. However the single most surprising aspect that I have learned about was the concept of reimbursement importers can receive from re-exporting items that they have originally paid duties on. Of course this is a long and lengthy process, and certain criteria must be adhered to.
From a security and compliance standpoint I have learned so much. First there are many agencies involved with the compliance and security aspects, but the CBP in my opinion leads the way in this objective. This agency leverages fines and penalties for noncompliance as well as inspects cargo for deficiencies. Additionally this agency helps companies become compliant by offering sources of information on their website and assistance by phone if needed. There are programs that companies can join to show compliance one such program is the C-TPAT program. This platform allows organizations to enjoy benefits such as being exempt from stratified exams, accelerated trade processing, access to trades specialists, business resumption, as well as entry to the CBP annual trade conference. Additionally companies can conduct self-audits to ensure compliance as well as view lists of potential customers on these banned exporting lists. Finally comp.
The trade connection between the US and China has been quite possibly one of the most complex and significant across the globe. As the world's two biggest economies, their respective trade has critical ramifications for worldwide trade and international relations.
First Reply INEach one of the three kinds of trade agreements isShainaBoling829
First Reply IN
Each one of the three kinds of trade agreements is evenly significant to the United States. First, a consensual understanding is a trade agreement between two countries (Zeng 2012). For instance, when the United States and China arrived at a trade agreement (Zeng 2012). A consensual trade agreement is vital to the United States because it helps individuals operate in distinct businesses that engage the two countries. For instance, the United States prohibited Huawei from working here, several individuals in the United States and China suffered (Campion 2020). Thus, there are individuals in both countries that lost their occupations. A bilateral trade agreement would have protected such disciplines and warranted that the salary and profits of thousands of individuals are guarded (Campion 2020).
A regional trade agreement is a commercial agreement that engages nations in a particular area (Labonté, Gleeson and McNamara 2020). An exceptional illustration of a regional trade agreement is the U.S. – Canada – Mexico agreement that superseded NAFTA (North Atlantic Trade Agreement). This trade agreement permits individuals from both nations to transfer and exchange supplies, commodities. It produces among the three countries without forfeiting unnecessary tariffs and tolls that individuals from other countries would have to lose (Labonté, Gleeson and McNamara 2020). Such profits are vital to the U.S. because it permits American manufacturers to multiply their markets further than the borders of the United States.
An international trade agreement is an understanding that implicates the majority, if not all, nations worldwide. An example of a global trade agreement is the World Trade Organization Agreement. The World Trade Organization establishes commerce and business strategies that nations worldwide follow to ensure that marketing and business
are directed and overseen effortlessly and efficiently (Zeng 2012). Suppose the World Trade Organization did not exist. In that case, many nations may begin seizing the benefit of their financial authority and influence to obtain additional power when negotiating and exchanging with other countries. Nevertheless, the World Trade Organization is inexistent to make sure that there is impartiality and fairmindedness. This objectivity likewise clearly impacts the United States.
Free trade is as significant as a democracy to the wellbeing of world stability; free trade is essential (Mead 2021). It has accomplished much more than all of the global foreign relief bureaucrats to enhance living norms and means and amplify chances for individuals in developing markets. In contributing to poor and productive countries a mutual interest in peacetime and solidity of the international structure, free trade achieves greater than NGOs and advocates to endorse peace (Mead 2021). The reason for free trade is presently obsolete, and forming a trade outline for the 21st century will be difficult (Mead 2021). Yet, i ...

Introduction
Establishment of a business in a foreign land depends on strict evaluation and analysis of various factors inclusive of; the barriers to entry in the foreign nation, the legal systems, customer base, potentiality of growth, economic performance, and the cultural framework of the natives there. Failure to scrutinize such factors might impact success of the business negatively (Schill, 2014). This paper discusses the factors that a regional bank needs to consider before expanding into a foreign nation, China for this case. It uses Union Bancshares (UNB), a Californian based regional bank as an example.
Possible challenges in the new environment
This may be analyzed in three perspectives; educational discrepancies, cultural differences, and other social demographics. Culture refers to the values and norms held by members of a given society; the good and the bad defined by a society. Cultural conflict is felt a great depth in the work place, if the workers therein are from different ethnic origins. For UNB to ensure it gains a positive reputation in the public sector, the company’s management will need to employ workers from diverse cultural setups. Despite this move being positive in some way, the conflicts arising in the work place due to differing cultural expectations might hamper work progress negatively leading to poor performance. Another challenge is education level of potential employees within the locality within which the company plans to establish itself. Specific technical personnel might be inadequate in China compelling UNB’s management to outsource workers from far geographical locations, this is a costly process.
Legal and political environments
The legal systems in China are flexible rather than static. This poses a great challenge to foreign investors since laws regarding foreign investors might change negatively at the time of their investment. In People’s Republic of China, laws governing the business sector are made in the National People’s Congress (NPC) and the judicial system is vested with the power of ensuring all parties comply. When making a foreign direct investment, the first step is to describe in detail the pros and cons of the business to China’s economy, if the pros exceed the cons then the business is listed under the permitted category as long as all other factors have been fully satisfied. China is a politically stable nation despite its long term poor relation with Taiwan. This is a positive indicator for UNB since business operations are not likely to be disrupted due to political clash.
Government involvement in the private sector
A comparison to the US business practice is made to gauge the level with which the government intervenes in private businesses in Peop.

Former Under Secretary of State, Keith Krach, briefs the Congressional China Task Force on the The National Security Imperative for: Mastering Tech Statecraft and Executing a Clean Capital Markets Strategy on December 8, 2021
Given U/S Krach’s lead role in developing and operationalizing the Global Economic Security Strategy, as well as his transformational leadership in building market leading companies, he is one of the foremost authorities for combating China’s economic aggression.
During his tenure, Krach developed the new model of tech statecraft based on trust by integrating high-tech strategy with foreign policy tools to defeat the CCP’s masterplan to control 5G with the Clean Network.
He will address the necessity for mastering tech statecraft and the need to protect American investors from Funding CCP’s Surveillance State and Military Machine. He will share actionable recommendations for Congress to combat economic aggression.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

The US-China Business Council Board of Directors’
Statement of Priorities in the US-China Commercial Relationship
January 20, 2016
The US-China Business Council (USCBC) supports a strong, mutually beneficial
commercial relationship between the United States and China. The relationship has
made many positive strides over the past three decades, thanks to the collaborative
work of the governments, business communities, and other stakeholders in both
countries. Trade and investment are delivering important benefits to both economies
and are the foundation of the US-China relationship.
This is the fifth priorities statement issued by USCBC’s board of directors. Several
of the issues raised in previous statements have seen progress during the past year,
such as during President Xi Jinping’s successful state visit to the United States. At
the same time, progress remains insufficient on other critical issues, including
several new concerns that have developed since last year’s statement.
USCBC calls upon both governments to work closely with the business community
to address these priority issues with tangible progress in the coming year, in order to
further strengthen and expand commercial relations between the US and China.
Further Solidify the Foundation for Mutually Beneficial Commercial Relations
Finalize a high-standard Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) in 2016 A BIT
provides one of the best opportunities to reduce investment barriers in both
countries, ensure a level playing field among all enterprises, and improve
protections for US and Chinese investors in each other’s markets. Finalizing a
high-standard BIT with very limited exceptions in the negative list would
provide a forward-looking framework for the commercial relationship and
should be a top priority for both governments.
Prioritize reducing foreign investment ownership restrictions China still
maintains numerous foreign investment ownership restrictions across many
sectors of its economy, including manufacturing, services, agriculture, and
resources, despite modest modifications to the Catalogue Guiding Foreign
Investment in 2015. Reducing foreign ownership restrictions now, rather than
later would allow American companies to contribute more to China’s economic
reforms and economic rebalancing goals. In addition, China would build critical
support in the United States for a BIT, both in government and in the broader
business community, by taking early steps to reduce investment barriers in areas
meaningful to American companies.
Prohibit cyber-enabled commercial espionage and strengthen cybersecurity
We applaud the agreement by Presidents Xi and Obama not to engage in cyber-
enabled commercial espionage and to create a high-level dialogue to fight
cybercrime. Cybersecurity is a national security priority for both countries.
Cybersecurity laws and regulations are strongest when they provide system
operators the maximum flexibility to assess emerging risks and to adapt to ever-
changing threats. Industry can serve as a valuable resource for the development
cybersecurity, in particular, be consistent with WTO agreements and other

international norms; be narrowly-tailored, and nondiscriminatory; and not impose
unnecessary nationality-based conditions or restrictions on the purchase, sale, or use of
ICT products.
Apply national security exceptions only when essential and narrowly-targeted Both
governments have made important commitments to promote more open trade and
investment environments and apply national security exceptions only in limited
circumstances to advance legitimate security objectives. Toward that end, the United
States and China should incorporate these commitments in existing and future laws and
regulations, and refrain from taking steps that would contradict these commitments, such
as using “national security” for economic or commercial objectives, including protecting
or promoting domestic companies versus foreign companies. Measures used to protect
national security should be narrowly-tailored and necessary to protect genuine security
goals. In particular, China should address concerns about the scope of its National
Security Law when detailed implementation regulations are promulgated.
Promote a level playing field for foreign and domestic companies in China
Companies legally established under China’s Company Law should all be treated equally
by regulators, regardless of ownership nationality. China’s leadership has stated
repeatedly that it will treat domestic and foreign companies on an equal basis, but work
still must be done to implement those commitments.
In addition, we recommend a simple approach that would make a significant
difference: China’s policymakers should move toward eliminating terminology in its laws
and regulations that distinguish between domestic and foreign-owned companies, such as
“foreign-invested enterprises.” Continued use of this term invites discriminatory
treatment of various types of domestic legal entities, based solely on ownership.
Maintain a robust and effective bilateral dialogue The United States and China have
established a robust annual schedule of bilateral meetings at all levels of government that
supports expanded economic and commercial relations and resolves issues of concern.
The United States and China should continue this coordinated dialogue structure, which
includes the US-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue (S&ED), the US-China Joint
Commission on Commerce and Trade (JCCT), the US-China Innovation Dialogue, and
the US-China Investment Forum.
The successful meeting in September 2015 between Presidents Obama and Xi
demonstrated the value of annual presidential summits. USCBC encourages both
governments to schedule as early as possible a presidential meeting in 2016 to build on
the progress that has been made in the relationship and ensure that implementation of
bilateral commitments receives the highest level attention.
Take steps to build confidence in the bilateral relationship We applaud the United
States’ approval of International Monetary Fund reforms in late 2015 and urge additional
steps to foster positive momentum and confidence-building in the US-China relationship:
o Eliminate counterproductive, China-targeted provisions in US appropriations bills,
such as those restricting the Office of Science and Technology Policy from
interactions with its counterparts in China, and China-specific language included in IT
procurement risk assessments by the Departments of Commerce and Justice, the
National Academy of Sciences, and the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration; and
o Confirm that the US will begin using market economy methodology in China trade
remedy proceedings on or before December 11, 2016, as specified in China’s World
Trade Organization (WTO) entry agreement.

Reduce Trade Barriers and Enforce Globally Accepted Trade Rules
Ensure that government decisions are not politicized Government reviews and
decision making in areas such as investment security and antitrust reviews, government
procurement decisions, administrative licensing, and trade remedies such as anti-dumping
and countervailing duties cases must be fact-based, shielded from political pressures, and
non-retaliatory.
Improve transparency and processes in Antimonopoly Law (AML) investigations
and merger and acquisition reviews It should be expected that China, with its large
economy, will develop into the third leg of the global antitrust regime, along with the
United States and the European Union. China should build upon the progress it has made
over the past year and fully implement its bilateral commitments on this issue,
specifically regarding fair treatment and nondiscrimination, improving due process and
regulatory transparency, reducing time periods for merger and acquisition (M&A)
reviews, and the determination of remedies and fines. Ongoing and future antitrust
investigations and M&A reviews must be transparent, non-discriminatory, follow
internationally-accepted due process procedures, and allow legal counsel participation.
Implement laws and regulations consistently across localities As part of its economic
reforms, China’s central government has streamlined and decentralized many approvals
necessary to establish and operate businesses throughout the country. These efforts are
welcome, but implementation of laws and regulations by provincial and local authorities
remains uneven and therefore problematic.
Increase the use of transparent, internationally harmonized standards for goods and
services sold in China’s market The use of internationally harmonized standards in
China will ensure that Chinese consumers and end users have access to the best products
and services, and that Chinese products and services are accepted and competitive
internationally. China should adopt more science-based, fair, equal, transparent, and
market-led approaches to standards setting and development that is open to all companies
regardless of nationality, including domestic, foreign-invested, and foreign-based
manufacturers.
Eliminate import barriers to facilitate economic rebalancing and consumption
China maintains high import duties and taxes on a wide array of consumer goods. These
high tariffs and taxes inhibit China’s economic rebalancing and lead Chinese consumers
to purchase such products overseas. Reducing or eliminating tariffs and taxes on
consumer goods would be a simple yet powerful stimulant of domestic consumption.
Removing restraints on imports, such as increasing or eliminating the cap on imported
movies, would stimulate services sector growth and employment.
Accelerate sensible US export control reforms Export controls are an important part of
ensuring the security of the United States. The Obama administration should continue
reform efforts that will ensure US security is not undermined, while boosting US exports
to help support and create jobs. The United States should allow greater exports of items
that do not present a security risk and are already available on open markets from non-US
sources.
Promote mutual cooperation on environmental technologies and the Environmental
Goods Agreement The United States and China should seek more opportunities for
mutual cooperation in developing and deploying energy efficiency and environmental
sustainability technologies, which will benefit both nations and set an example for the rest
of the world. As part of that effort, the United States and China should be ambitious in
their efforts to conclude the WTO Environmental Goods Agreement in 2016 to eliminate
tariffs on environmental goods and services.

Implement climate pledges China’s government is pursuing policies that support efforts
to develop a low-carbon, energy efficient economy. Implementing pledges to reduce
emissions, support green growth and install a transparent verification system can spur
investment in climate-friendly, energy efficient technologies and applications. The United
States and China should continue to work closely to implement internationally-accepted
climate rules.
Ensure Competitive Neutrality and Improve Transparency
Ensure equal treatment for American technology companies and products in China
Technology and innovation play a critical role in creating stronger commercial
environments that are capable of meeting the needs of 21st century economies. It is
important that companies operating in this space are regulated in ways that reflect the
complex, global value chains they maintain, and that regulations governing the sector are
based solely on sound commercial and technical factors.
China has recently implemented several policies that effectively exclude many US
technology companies from commercial opportunities in China for reasons unrelated to
the quality and security of their products and services. We fully support the agreement
reached during President Xi’s 2015 state visit to address these concerns and urge rapid
implementation. Both governments should implement origin-neutral technology security
policies in order to foster truly innovative economies.
Ensure equal treatment in licensing Over the past decade, USCBC’s annual
membership survey has highlighted licensing barriers as one of the top areas of
discriminatory treatment in China. These licenses include business licenses, branch
licenses, product approval licenses, import licenses, and other licenses and permits in
sectors such as banking, healthcare, insurance, construction, legal, and value-added
telecom services (such as data centers). In many cases, Chinese companies are able to
receive these licenses without the same restrictions or delays faced by foreign companies
and foreign-invested companies.
American companies support the State Council’s efforts to reduce licensing
requirements, although many of the licensing barriers impacting foreign companies
remain unaddressed. We encourage further efforts to reduce licensing barriers and ensure
equal treatment in licensing reviews and approvals. Licensing and other government
approval decisions should be made without prejudice against type of ownership and
without influence from competing entities.
Ensure equal treatment in government procurement for all legal entities in China,
regardless of ownership China should finalize the draft Administrative Measures for
Government Procurement of Domestic Products with modifications recommended by
USCBC to ensure that goods and services provided by all legal entities in China are
treated equally during procurement processes, regardless of ownership. If appropriately
revised, the rules would roughly parallel similar rules applied to Chinese companies in the
United States.
China should also take the necessary steps to join the WTO’s Government
Procurement Agreement in 2016. Doing so under meaningful terms will positively
address many concerns with “Buy American” and “Buy Chinese” procurement practices
in each country, as well as create additional positive momentum for concluding the BIT.
Ensure an inclusive and transparent process in the development of China’s
ecommerce law China’s electronic commerce market has grown at a remarkable rate in
recent years, creating new opportunities for both traditional and online retailers, as well as
for China’s consumers and its economic rebalancing goals. Companies, both domestic
and foreign, support the development of this sector in China and can provide important
5. USCBC 2016 Board Priorities Statement
January 20, 2016
Page 5
input into how proposed Chinese regulations will impact business operations. China
should ensure that both domestic and foreign companies are allowed to provide input and
share global best practices during the process of finalizing China’s ecommerce law.
Further improve rule-making transparency China’s central government has made
some progress on improving rule-making transparency over the past several years, but
further improvements are needed. China should fully implement its commitment to
publish all draft trade and economic related laws, administrative regulations, and
departmental rules for a full 30-day comment period, but it should also consider going
further by posting draft regulations on a designated website for a 60- or 90-day public
comment period.
Curb overcapacity China’s complex and non-transparent credit allocation system serves
only to spur inefficient and non-competitive overproduction of key commodities. China
should, in the near term, revise such policies that encourage overcapacity and take
tangible steps to curtail energy-intensive and inefficient production facilities.
Ensure safe and reliable food and agriculture trade American agriculture companies
are strongly committed to supporting China’s food and agriculture needs and bring the
latest in agriculture technology to the China market. A predictable regulatory
environment is needed to achieve that mutually-beneficial goal. To that end, the
allocation of trade-related quotas (TRQs) and approval policies for genetically-modified
organisms (GMOs) should be based on science and international standards such as
CODEX, thereby ensuring safe and reliable food and agriculture trade.
Strengthen Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Protection and Adhere to Mutually
Beneficial Innovation Policies
Continue to strengthen China’s IPR regime and enforcement of IPR in China
Stronger IPR protection brings mutual benefits. China should continue to improve its IPR
legal regime by updating laws and regulations to reflect the latest developments in IPR
protection and enforcement. It should also continue to expand resources devoted to IPR
enforcement and adopt stronger deterrents against IPR infringement. Adopting the WTO-
consistent deterrent of criminal penalties in all cases of commercial-scale infringement
and broadening the use of higher penalties and stronger deterrents in both civil and
criminal cases against all types of IPR infringement—including patent, copyright,
trademark, and trade secrets violations—will benefit all companies and IPR holders in
China.
Improve enforcement against online counterfeiting and piracy Internet platforms are
a growing means for counterfeiters to market and sell counterfeit goods and distribute
pirated content, but they present special challenges for rights-holders and enforcement
officials alike. China should increase enforcement of Internet-related IPR to ensure its
laws, regulations and enforcement efforts cover areas such as use of trademarks on
websites, trademark-related aspects of domain name registrations, and the use of
websites, Internet services, and apps as platforms for counterfeit and pirated products.
Such rules and their enforcement should establish a framework that promotes
accountability while balancing the needs of legitimate IPR holders and Internet
intermediaries.
Strengthen trade secrets protection The protection of trade secrets is a core component
of innovative economies. China can take positive steps to encourage innovation by
expanding its efforts to address trade secrets concerns, including the development of a
Trade Secrets Law, broader use of judicial procedures on preliminary injunctions and
evidence preservation orders, clearer measures requiring government agencies to protect
6. USCBC 2016 Board Priorities Statement
January 20, 2016

confidential information collected from companies during government review processes,
and reducing the high evidentiary burden that plaintiffs face during trade secrets cases.
Harmonize patent review processes with international best practices China should
ensure that government reviews of patents are consistent with international patent
practice, including provisions governing company submissions of supplemental data, and
that government authorities do not unreasonably reject applications or revoke existing
patents under discriminatory or improperly applied criteria.
Follow internationally proven, effective innovation incentives In place of
discriminatory government procurement preferences, China should pursue other policy
approaches that would more effectively promote innovation:
o Revise criteria in the existing High- and New-Technology Enterprise (HNTE)
program that currently requires IP ownership in China or a five-year global exclusive
license to allow legally acquired, non-exclusive license or usage rights, or exclusive
license rights in China only. These revisions would positively impact company
decisions about where to locate innovation activity.
o Ensure that provisions related to how companies compensate inventors, such as the
draft Service
Invention Regulations, fully recognize the legitimacy of existing company policies
and contracts that address inventor compensation, and allow room for companies and
inventors to freely negotiate compensation on market terms as an important
component of an active innovation ecosystem in China.
