Strengthening Legal Shields: Kinghelm & Slkor Empower Teams with Corporate Compliance and Cross-Border Risk Training
As global business landscapes evolve, effective compliance management has become a cornerstone for sustainable enterprise growth. Amid the rising complexity of civil-criminal cross-border risks in the economic domain, building robust compliance systems is more critical than ever.
On April 12th, Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor hosted a comprehensive corporate training session titled “Corporate Compliance Management: Navigating Civil-Criminal Cross-Border Risks.” The session was led by Mr. Chen Yulin, a senior legal advisor from Boye Law Firm, and brought together employees across departments for a deep dive into regulatory challenges and risk mitigation strategies in today’s dynamic global market.
“Is criminal law really that far from us?” With this compelling question, Attorney Chen Yulin immediately captured the audience’s attention. She emphasized that criminal law is not just a legal abstraction—it’s deeply embedded in the everyday operations of modern enterprises. The number of criminal cases involving businesses remains notably high, making legal awareness a strategic necessity.
Through real-world case studies and scenario-based analysis, Ms. Chen guided participants through key compliance risk areas, including:
-
Occupational Embezzlement & Misappropriation of Funds
-
Fraudulent Issuance of VAT Special Invoices
-
Protection of Trade Secrets & Legal Risks for Company Representatives
-
Building Corporate Criminal Compliance Systems
The session offered not only legal theory but also actionable insights, empowering participants to identify red flags and implement safeguards within their roles.
Attorney Chen provided clear, practical explanations of key legal risks that companies may face. She defined occupational embezzlement as the unlawful appropriation of corporate assets by employees leveraging their positions of authority, while misappropriation of funds typically involves unauthorized use of company finances for personal gain or lending purposes. Though similar in nature, she detailed the legal distinctions between the two—such as intent, targets, methods, consequences, and sentencing guidelines.
She also outlined the serious implications of fraudulent issuance of VAT invoices, which includes issuing fake invoices for oneself or others, or aiding such actions. These offenses carry significant legal repercussions under tax and criminal law.
On trade secrets, she emphasized the importance of confidentiality, commercial value, and protective measures. Violations may lead to criminal, civil, or administrative liabilities, depending on the case severity.
Furthermore, Chen addressed the multi-layered risks faced by legal representatives, including civil liability, regulatory sanctions, administrative penalties, and potential criminal charges.
Finally, she highlighted how corporate criminal compliance risks can result in more than just fines—they can severely disrupt operations and cause lasting reputational damage.
Interactive Session During the Training
Lawyer Chen underscored the importance of proactive tax compliance in preventing financial crimes. Key measures include timely tax filing, meticulous account reconciliation, thorough invoice verification, caution with third-party invoicing, stringent partner due diligence, and ensuring all transactions are conducted through official channels with verified counterparties.
She also highlighted that trade secret protection is critical—particularly for R&D-driven industries, where nearly 70% of companies depend on it to safeguard innovation. Companies should regularly audit their internal practices, including classification of proprietary information, proper confidentiality labeling, and secure procedural workflows. A multi-layered strategy is essential: combining internal controls, administrative enforcement, civil litigation, criminal reporting, and arbitration to mitigate leakage risks.
Regarding corporate compliance, she recommended a framework built on “prevention, preparedness, and post-incident response.” The foundation of prevention lies in comprehensive legal audits, robust institutional controls, and continuous risk monitoring to fortify an enterprise’s legal and operational resilience.
