According to the draft, private placement corporate bond issuers must meet the following conditions: profitable business results in the previous year; total outstanding debt of bonds does not exceed three times of equity; having collateral if the total outstanding debt exceeds the equity. “Many people say that the corporate bond market poses risks and needs to be tightened. However, perfecting the legal system does not mean tightening it. Instead, it is necessary to ensure that information reaches the market in an open, transparent, and accurate manner," lawyer Truong Thanh Duc, Director of Law ANVI Firm, said.

Japan is asking universities for greater scrutiny of foreign students and scholars to prevent technology leaks to places like China, partly for its own national security but also to safeguard exchanges with U.S. and European universities. While many Western countries have measures to prevent espionage on their campuses with strict screening and penalties for breaches, experts say Japan has been a weak link given its often-unchecked embrace of foreign students. A string of U.S. arrests of Chinese academics in recent years over suspicion of spying was a wake-up call for Japan, officials say. "Around the world, export controls are getting more stringent on foreign nations like China," said a Japanese trade ministry official who helps colleges develop ways to monitor high-risk technology transfers and students. "We want Japanese universities to be trusted for their security and trade controls so that joint research with the United States or Europe can continue," said the official, … [Read more...] about With eye on China, and U.S. ties, Japan’s universities to screen foreigners

GENEVA — The World Economic Forum’s Community of Chief Economists expects lower economic activity, higher inflation, lower real wages and greater food insecurity globally in 2022, pointing to the devastating human consequences of the fragmentation of the global economy. Reversing previous expectations for recovery, the majority of respondents to the latest survey expect only a moderate economic outlook in the United States, China, Latin America, South Asia and Pacific, East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East and North Africa in 2022.
