VIDEO - China's leading economic power in the world

Editorial

The world has learned with astonishment from a simple press release by the International Monetary Fund on October 10, that China has become the largest economy in the world.

According to the International Monetary Fund, the Chinese economy is currently valued at $17,610 trillion, as opposed to the United States’ $17,200 billion.

According to the International Monetary Fund, the Chinese economy will be valued at $27 trillion in 2019. This will be 20% higher than the United States’ economy, which will be valued at $22.3 trillion in that same year.

This creates a new economic, diplomatic, financial, political, legal and commercial, but also social and sociological situation; a new balance of powers.

For your business this is a major new component of globalization, as well as a tremendous commercial and financial opportunity.

To prepare for these major changes, our newsletter this month of December offers to you the opportunity to navigate through the relevant training programs that NYIBF created for this purpose.

International regulations for business and payments with China
Using offshore financial platforms for the payments to Chinese companies is a major issue in charge of serious legal and financial consequences for your company. You have to stay compliant with the major domestic and international financial regulations and at the same time stay competitive in a market where a big chunk of international payments to and from China are made through offshore places.

Indeed, many international companies doing business with China are being asked to channel their payments received and paid by offshore companies. It is a common habit. However, these transactions can be worrisome. That is why it is essential to know the legal framework of China, the U.S, the E.U., as well as the international regulations and the regulations of the major states in the world regarding the use of offshore places for international transactions.

Chinese sources of funding for your business
International corporate finance is now wider. Simultaneous listing on different stock markets for multinational companies is allowed and largely used. It authorizes under certain legal conditions and financial volumes companies to introduce their stocks on different places and raise bonds even more broadly. China has so far been focused on its own financing needs in the financial centers of Shanghai and Hong Kong, but is looking at a broad and quick expansion.

We should not forget that the great American housing boom of 2000-2007 was made possible by the consumption of US households, itself made possible by the massive buying by the Chinese of more than $ 2 trillion debt (two trillion dollars) from the US Treasury in the form of Treasury bonds. This massive injection of liquidities by the Chinese authorities and companies was made possible by the huge financial surpluses generated by Chinese companies. For ten years the money was also invested heavily in foreign companies and real estate in New York, Paris, London, as well as in other world capitals. IPOs in New York companies like www.alibaba.comshow that financial dynamism is adamant to Chinese companies and joint ventures abroad.

This is good for your business. To benefit fully from this opportunity, it is still necessary to know how to attract Chinese investments and what financial instruments are available to raise Chinese funds. The purpose of this training is aimed at managers and CFOs of your business:

Competition Rules
To enter the Chinese market and establish oneself in foreign companies encompasses real challenges. This is partly because of the competition rules as well as because the health and social authorities are strict, and their rules are sometimes difficult to understand. European and American giants like Bayer, Walmart and Microsoft have learned this lesson with massive raids and closures of shops and offices, actions that have jeopardized most of their activities in China.

To avoid these inconveniences and real dangers to one’s company operating in China or the process of conducting business in China, we have developed a training tailored for business leaders and senior businesses, as well as finance executives and lawyers.
