Principal Risks and Uncertainties Continued Intellectual property and value of the brand Brand recognition is important to the success of the Group and significant resources have been invested in protecting its intellectual property in the form of trade marks, logos and domain names. Any material act or omission by any person working for or representing the Group’s operations which is contrary to its standards could impair Mandarin Oriental’s reputation and the equity value of the brand, as could any negative publicity regarding the Group’s product or services. Regulatory and political risk The Group’s business is subject to a number of regulatory environments in the territories in which it operates. Changes in the regulatory approach to such matters as employment legislation, tax rules, foreign ownership of assets, planning controls and exchange controls have the potential to impact the operations and profitability of the Group’s business. Changes in the political environment, including prolonged civil unrest, could also affect the Group’s business. 84 Mandarin Oriental International Limited
