This reference book is a crash course for the majority of relevant topics in the areas of Laws and Legal Framework and the Management of Finance, Taxation, Human Resources, Trade and Sales for:

— Managers and Professionals holding or taking over a position in China;

— Corporate functions in other countries which cooperate with Chinese subsidiaries, customers and suppliers, and

— People who are interested in the regulatory, financial and business environment in China, e.g. students.

While in its short form it cannot introduce every topic to the fullest extent, the target is to provide the reader with a toolkit of general understanding and evaluating important business-related topics in China. It is also a base of inspiration to choose which topics you might want check out in more detail and includes practical hints and a description of common pitfalls. This book is not a cultural guide.
