The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has opened up unlimited investment opportunities in participating countries
For clients investing in the BRI countries, it is critical to work with a reliable legal counsel in order to achieve the business objectives.
Benefiting from our experience in advising clients on numerous pioneering projects in BRI countries, we have acquired deep and keen understanding of our clients’ business objectives as well as the legal challenges they face. With insights into BRI project risks, transaction skills, and negotiation strategies, we focus more on practical solutions than legal theories.
Adept at mobilising our top legal resources across KWM’s global network, we can quickly assemble a cross-practice team with market-leading capacities and multilingual competencies including Chinese, English, Russian, French, Spanish and Portuguese. Over the years, KWM has advised on over one thousand BRI projects in 65 countries along the Belt and Road, covering a wide range of infrastructure projects in critical sectors such as energy, transportation, information, as well as the projects in finance, manufacturing and service sectors. KWM has also counselled on the key infrastructure and energy projects in the six BRI economic corridors. We offer not only full-range, multi-jurisdictional and one-stop legal services to BRI participants, but also forward-looking and commercially feasible business solutions.
