Covington & Burling (Beijing) Publish Paper On “FAPIAO”

Eric Carlson ???

Writes

For those interested in compliance issues in China, we have drafted a short piece that attempts to explain

(1) what a fapiao is;

(2) the different types of fapiaos and receipts in China;

(3) how fapiaos can be misused for fraud, embezzlement, and corruption; and

(4) ways to counter these schemes to minimize compliance risk.

The article can be viewed here: https://www.cov.com/~/media/files/corporate/publications/2015/05/unlocking_a_mystery_of_china_compliance_fapiaos.ashx. Feedback is of course welcome.
