Based in Amsterdam, our China Desk is led by AKD’s managing partner Erwin Rademakers and partner Jeroen Pop.
The team has over 10 years’ experience assisting Chinese companies in all sectors (from Fortune 500 companies to mid-sized companies) in setting up and doing business in the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg. Since the firm has over three hundred lawyers, civil-law notaries and tax advisers in the Benelux, the team is able to provide legal and tax advice for any phase of the business of their clients. The clients can directly contact us in Chinese and all documents can also be provided in Chinese. AKD has a strong network consisting of banks, investment agencies, corporate finance companies and other law firms in all major jurisdictions. The team aims to make it easier for Chinese companies to do business in the Benelux and expand to other European jurisdictions.
AKD’s China Desk helps our Chinese clients to navigate the Benelux. At the same time, the team advises Dutch companies on expanding to China, through our close working relationship with leading law firms based in China.
