2026 China-Italy Seminar on Investment Risk Prevention and International Arbitration

2026 China-Italy Seminar on Investment Risk Prevention and International Arbitration
In 2026, China-Italy comprehensive strategic partnership has entered a new phase. This year, China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC) celebrates its seventieth anniversary, the newly revised Arbitration Law of the People’s Republic of China took effect, and the new China-Italy tax agreement significantly reduces the costs of cross-border investment. However, the continued expansion of the “Golden Power” Bill, together with rule changes such as increased scrutiny of EU investments in China, has raised the compliance threshold for Chinese enterprises investing in Italy significantly, increasing the risk of potential disputes. Dividends and red lines parallel, opportunities and challenges coexist. 

In the face of an increasingly complex cross-border investment environment, international arbitration, as the core mechanism for resolving economic and trade disputes between China and Italy, is playing a critical role. Shanghai is now speeding up its construction as an international commercial arbitration center, actively cultivating first-class international arbitration institutions, and enhancing the level of foreign-related legal services. As one of Europe’s most important cities for international arbitration, Milan also gathers rich dispute resolution resources and professionals. The institutional docking and practical cooperation between China and Italy in the field of arbitration provide an institutional guarantee for enterprises from risk prevention to dispute resolution.

 

On the occasion of the 2026 China Arbitration Week, CIETAC Shanghai Sub-Commission, Law School of Tongji University, and D’Andrea & Partners Legal Counsel, in conjunction with European Union Chamber of Commerce in China (EUCCC) and Intesa SanPaolo Bank, jointly held a closed-door seminar to focus on compliance access, risk prevention and control and international arbitration practice, and to provide guidance for Chinese enterprises on the whole chain from risk identification to dispute resolution in making investments in Italy.
