The presentation focused on China\u2019s data regulatory regime \u2013 an increasingly relevant topic for foreign companies (including those from Canada) operating in the China market. Firms from a variety of sectors \u2013 such as consumer\/retail goods and\/or healthcare \u2013 are increasingly being regulated as technology companies. As such, the number one regulatory risk for many companies \u2013 in the view of Ms. Sacks \u2013 is regulatory compliance with new Chinese data laws and policies. There are, as a result, distinct implications for foreign business and investment in the coming years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

China\u2019s cybersecurity and digital legal\/regulatory regime is years in the making and best understood as a complicated \u201cmatrix of interlocking parts,\u201d each beholden to different\/varying political, security, and economic goals. The regime is rapidly being built out as government and quasi-government stakeholders increasingly view data as a strategic and economic asset.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The implications of this process for foreign businesses are not black and white, as the media sometimes portrays. The reality, Ms. Sacks explained, is far messier. Firms must contend with a range of regulatory risks, including \u201cblackbox\u201d security reviews, domestic blacklisting, on-site inspections, and even the revocation of business licences. Beyond regulatory concerns, MNCs must also manage the politization of data issues and broader bilateral conflict between Washington and Beijing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Further discussion revolved around specific rules and regulations (such as the Multi-Level Protections Scheme), important domestic stakeholders (the CAC and MPS, for example), and the current (unresolved) debate surrounding data localization practises in China.<\/p>\n
