Chinese regulators have established new guidelines for automotive companies managing their international operations. These directives mandate strict adherence to laws concerning outbound investment and overseas business activities.
Emphasis is placed on bolstering compliance with anti-monopoly and anti-corruption measures. Companies are also urged to uphold social responsibilities in their global endeavors. The guidelines advise against significant price fluctuations in foreign markets that could negatively impact consumer interests or brand reputation.
Furthermore, automakers are encouraged to enhance their antitrust compliance internationally and to avoid competitive practices that disrupt markets.
