When Contracts Fail: Preventing and Resolving Contract Termination Disputes in Sino-German Arbitration Proceedings

Long term technology, machinery and supply chain contracts between German and Chinese companies often run across multiple years and critical phases – from planning and manufacturing to delivery and commissioning. Few events are more disruptive or challenging than a mid-performance termination attempt, as it can simultaneously strain legal, operational, and business priorities for the counterparty. This webinar takes a practical look at contract termination disputes in international arbitration proceedings from both German and PRC law perspectives.

We will cover:

• when contract termination is actually permitted under German and Chinese law, 
• how arbitral tribunals assess termination disputes in practice, and
• what concrete options one has to either challenge a termination or actively terminate a contract, before and during arbitration proceedings.
