The German Supply Chain Act in Asia

The German Supply Chain Act was passed in June 2021 and will come into effect in 2023. In today's globally connected world, it is common for international supply chains to reach into the remotest corners of the world - especially with a view to Asia - and here in particular to China, Malaysia, Thailand or Vietnam. How does the Supply Chain Act affect German Companies in Asia? Which impact does the Law have on supply chains between Asian countries and Germany? And what obligations and challenges does the new Law impose on internationally active companies?
