Contentious elements now sit at the heart of Asia’s cross‑border restructuring work. Our panellists will examine the emerging battlegrouns driving disputes across the region, from recognition fights and arbitration interplay to the geopolitical risks shaping outbound distress.

The panel are expected to discuss:

• Impact of the latest Mainland–Hong Kong recognition cases on contentious winding‑up strategies, including emerging trends in recognising Mainland administrators’ actions
• Contentious issues arising under Singapore’s Model Law framework, including interim relief and multi‑jurisdictional procedural conflicts
• Early‑stage dispute risks for outbound Chinese enterprises in the Middle East, Dubai and Latin America 
• The next cross‑border dispute map across Belt and Road and BRICS jurisdictions
