CHINA. International Tax Review and KPMG China will host a webinar on 21 July to discuss the business implications of China’s development of the Hainan Free Trade Port.
As reported, on 1 June the Chinese government released a hugely ambitious master plan for policies to support the development of Hainan Free Trade Port. The aim is to build Hainan Island, on China’s south coast, into a globally-significant Free Trade Port by 2050. The development marks a new stage in China’s opening-up.
Policies will be rolled out to facilitate trade, liberalise investment, allow capital to flow freely cross-border, make transit more convenient for people, and ensure the safe flow of data. Improvements to the tax and legal systems will be made to support the development of the Free Trade Port.
In this webinar, Nicole Zhang, partner-in-charge of Hainan initiatives at KPMG China, will explore how businesses can best seize the new opportunities that will emerge from the development.
The 60-minute webinar will be moderated by International Tax Review Commercial Editor Prin Shasiharan. The webinar will be followed by a Q&A session.
As reported, Hainan Provincial Bureau of International Economic Development & Hainan Expo have become joint Platinum Partners of the inaugural Moodie Davitt Virtual Travel Retail Expo.
