Data transfers between the EU and ASIA
summary
Panel argues Schrems voids Safe Harbor and forces far tighter scrutiny of non‑EU laws, especially surveillance carve‑outs; no Asian regime yet has an EU adequacy decision, though Korea announces an adequacy application and Japan enacts amendments with a new law due in two years. Practical fixes are Binding Corporate Rules, standard contractual clauses and company APEC CBPR certification; firms increasingly centralize transfers, minimize EU→Asia flows, and brace for 4% GDPR fines and tougher enforcement.
