Doing Business in China - Navigating the Risks and Opportunities of the Chinese Market

Event | 10.16.06, 12:00 AM UTC - 12:00 AM UTC

Doing business in China, one of the world's most dynamic countries, can be an overwhelming endeavor for many U.S.-based businesses. Positioning your company for success while simultaneously managing the significant risks that come with investing in, sourcing from, or selling to China is essential in this important market. Crowell and Moring, C&M International and the American University International Business Association invite you to join us on October 16th for two expert panel discussions on how to navigate the Chinese market (how to form joint-ventures, protect intellectual property, and market products in China, etc.) and how to understand the political and economic forces that shape U.S.-China relations and impact how U.S. businesses operate in China. Our two panel discussions will feature Fortune 500 executives, senior government officials from the Office of the United States Trade Representative and the Department of Commerce, top Crowell attorneys and distinguished academics. Following the panel discussion, a keynote address will be delivered by John Frisbie, President of the U.S.-China Business Council.

Crowell & Moring International (CMI) will be co-hosting this event with American University’s Kogod School of Business. Following a panel discussion, there will be a networking reception.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
