As one of the world’s most industrialised economies, Japan appears to be facing a development paradox in tackling a weakening currency while experiencing an unstoppable flow of inbound tourism – a trend that is too much for the country to sustain.

VIOLATION OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE DECREE: ALSO A VIOLATION OF LEGAL PROHIBITIONS? In a case in Ho Chi Minh City, the parties entered into a Shareholder Cooperation Agreement to cooperate in business and acquire shares in Restaurant L. The High Court in Ho Chi Minh City held that this was an "indirect foreign investment in Vietnam" according to Clause 13 of Article 4 of the Foreign Exchange Decree. According to the Foreign Exchange Decree, "A foreign investor is a non-resident who must open an indirect investment account in Vietnamese dong to make indirect investments in Vietnam. Indirect foreign investment capital in foreign currency must be converted into Vietnamese dong to make investments through this account." The plaintiff, a foreign investor, did not open an account as required and transferred money in US dollars. Therefore, the court held that the Shareholder Cooperation Agreement between the parties violated the Foreign Exchange Decree and was therefore null and void due to violation of a legal prohibition.

International Industrial Cooperation Exchange The Trade Union is a platform where manufacturers of goods and services are presented who are ready to provide technologies and equipment, organize outsourcing production in a given market. The idea of the international industrial cooperation exchange is to provide an opportunity for companies to find ideal partners around the world who can provide technologies, equipment, the required experience and knowledge to fulfill a specific order. Typically, the international industrial cooperation exchange displays company profiles, their operating technologies, as well as a list of services and products that they offer for joint work. The exchange allows potential partners to quickly find each other and establish contact for further cooperation. In addition, the industrial cooperation exchange can offer additional services, such as checking the creditworthiness of companies, consulting on legal and financial support for business, etc. All this helps entrepreneurs find reliable partners and expand their business. https://lnkd.in/dGq9qhmq

This year, I had the incredible opportunity to visit the Spanish Congress of Deputies twice to advocate for the Spanish Benefit Corporation Legal Framework—a proposed legal entity that officially recognizes and promotes purpose-driven companies, including B Corps. Purpose-driven companies have innovative impact business models that prioritize social and environmental goals alongside financial objectives. They aim to create positive societal and environmental value while also generating economic impact. Legal frameworks like these are essential in supporting the growth of purpose-driven companies. They represent a significant shift in business philosophy, moving from shareholder primacy to stakeholder governance. This means transitioning from focusing solely on economic value—often at the expense of people and the environment—to creating shared value for society, the planet, and shareholders alike. We need the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Trade and Business to approve this regulation, known as Sociedades de Beneficio e Interés Común (SBIC). Moreover, it is crucial for other countries to follow the lead of nations like France, Italy, and the USA in promoting purpose-driven companies. Stakeholder governance is the future of business—one that we need to embrace today. Find below more information about the SBIC: https://lnkd.in/dEqRgCvm
