Expatriate executives have chosen Hong Kong as the jurisdiction with the best Asian judicial system. The Political & Economic Risk Consultancy Ltd (PERC), a consulting firm specializing in strategic business information and analysis for companies doing business in East and Southeast Asia recently surveyed expatriate corporate executives working in Asia on their views of the judicial systems in their jurisdictions. They were asked to rate jurisdictions on the basis of measures such as corruption, IP rights, freedom from political interference in the judiciary, transparency, enforcement and professional experience and academic qualifications of judges and lawyers. Singapore came second in the results, while Indonesia maintained the dubious honour of occupying the bottom of the list.
