Vietnam, with\u00a0a\u00a0population of more than\u00a0100\u00a0million, has achieved stable economic growth\u00a0since the introduction of its\u00a0Doi Moi\u00a0economic reforms\u00a0in 1986. With its relatively young population and competitive labor costs, combined with its consistent expansion of overseas capital investment since joining the WTO in 2007, Vietnam continues to attract much attention from foreign investors, including Japanese companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, in addition to the one-party Communist system\u00a0and\u00a0as a result of\u00a0the impact of repeatedly accepting assistance in the development of legislation, Vietnam\u2019s legal system is quite unique, and its dispute resolution system could be considered somewhat underdeveloped. For these reasons, when investing in the\u00a0country, close collaboration with local law firms is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Kitahama Partners,\u00a0there is a dedicated\u00a0team led by several Japanese attorneys within-depth\u00a0experience working in Vietnamese law firms\u00a0which liaises with the\u00a0most appropriate local attorneys for the matters\u00a0at hand, providing support for our clients\u2019 project development from the very beginning. In particular, we handle a wide range of Vietnam-related matters, including assisting Japanese companies to establish a presence in Vietnam through M&A\u00a0transactions, joint ventures with Vietnamese companies, technology transfers, and other means,\u00a0incorporation\u00a0of subsidiaries, commercial agreements, intellectual property strategies,\u00a0business\u00a0withdrawals, international arbitration and other forms of dispute resolution, and various types of legal research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":0,"parent":1432,"menu_order":142,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"practice-category":[7],"class_list":["post-1437","practice","type-practice","status-publish","hentry","practice-category-region"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
