Lesli Ligorner: China’s legal landscape and the revised Anti-Unfair Competition Law

Today we’re joined by Lesli Ligorner, partner at law firm Morgan Lewis. Ligorner has been in China for 12 years, and specializes in labor and employment law, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and local anticorruption compliance. Earlier this year she co-authored a white paper on the recent amendments to China’s Anti-Unfair Competition Law (AUCL) – the first such amendments since the law was passed in 1993. We discuss her experiences investigating anticorruption cases in China, how employee misconduct laws differ from in the West, and the most important updates to the AUCL.
