Business and Investments in Asia
Author: Jorge Mongay
Publisher: ESIC Editorial
ISBN: 8473568109
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : es
Pages : 286
Book Description
Today's globalization is changing the gravity center of Business on a worlwide basis. The classic triangle New York-London-Paris has been substituted by new strategic axis located in emerging nations. Asian countries are changing the dimensions of international trade and investments from a Global perspective. Locations like the Strait of Malacca in Malaysia or APEC will become extremely strategic in trade and commerce for the next 20 years and the most relevant demographic growth will be located in Asian nations. Asia is moving quickly and it does it in the right direction. Governments are facilitating investment processes to local and foreign companies. Not only China and India must be taken into consideration, other new “Challengers” are increasing very rapidly (Vietnam, Thailand or Malaysia), which, despite some internal problems like lack of democratic maturity and transparency, show very admirable values in Business activities. Social order, respect, family orientation or hard work are some of these assets. This book offers an “in-depth” analysis of ten Asian nations (China, Cambodia, Vietnam, Japan, Laos, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, India and Hong Kong) in order to help western managers and investors to do Business efficiently in this dynamic economic region. La globalización actual está cambiando el centro de gravedad de los negocios en todo el mundo. El clásico triángulo York-Londres-París ha sido sustituido por un nuevo eje estratégico localizado en los países emergentes. Los países asiáticos están cambiando las dimensiones del comercio internacional y las inversiones desde una perspectiva global. Lugares como el Estrecho de Malacca en Malasia o en APEC se convertirá en un alto valor estratégico en el comercio para los próximos 20 años y el crecimiento demográfico más relevante se encuentra en los países asiáticos. Asia se está moviendo rápidamente, y lo hace en la dirección correcta. Los gobiernos están facilitando los procesos de inversión a las empresas locales y extranjeras. No sólo China e India deben ser tenidos en cuenta, otros nuevos "rivales" están creciendo muy rápidamente (Vietnam, Tailandia o Malasia), que, a pesar de algunos problemas internos como la falta de madurez democrática y la transparencia, muestran valores muy admirables en los negocios. Orden social, el respeto, la orientación de la familia o el trabajo duro son algunos de estos activos. Este libro ofrece un profundo análisis de diez países asiáticos (China, Camboya, Vietnam, Japón, Laos, Corea del Sur, Singapur, Tailandia, India y Hong Kong) con el fin de ayudar a los directivos e inversores occidentales para hacer negocios de manera eficiente en esta dinámica región económica.

ESG Investment
Author: Naoko Nemoto
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
ISBN: 4899742061
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Investors are increasingly integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues into their investment decisions. Currently, more than half of managed assets in Europe are linked to ESG factors, while in Japan, ESG investment has grown dramatically in recent years. In principle, ESG investment can help to bridge the gap between profit-driven investment and economic and social sustainability in Asia and the Pacific. However, a number of challenges, such as unclear and varied sustainable investment criteria, untested impacts on corporate value and social issues, and the lack of quality data cloud the potential for increasing ESG investment. This book aims to contribute to developing a framework for future analysis and monitoring to ensure the growth of ESG investment.

Infrastructure Financing In Asia
Author: Bambang Susantono
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9811215138
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
First, the book documents the evolution of Asia's infrastructure over the past half-century and reviews existing literature on the role of infrastructure investment in supporting growth and social development. It highlights the positive impact of mass transit investments on land and property values, and the possibility of taxing the increase in values to finance these investments. It then examines Asia's current practices and new solutions that can help meet the infrastructure gap. It discusses the role of institutions, how innovation can foster energy infrastructure investments, and the role of bond markets in infrastructure investments. The book explores ASEAN+3 efforts in developing local currency bond markets to provide long-term local financing for infrastructure investment while providing financial resilience. It also examines the use of green bonds to finance sustainable growth in Asia.

The Key to the Asian Miracle
Author: José Edgardo L. Campos
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
"Easily the most informed and comprehensive analysis to date on how and why East Asian countries have achieved sustained high economic growth rates, this book] substantially advances our understanding of the key interactions between the governors and governed in the development process. Students and practitioners alike will be referring to Campos and Root's series of excellent case studies for years to come." Richard L. Wilson, The Asia Foundation Eight countries in East Asia--Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia--have become known as the "East Asian miracle" because of their economies' dramatic growth. In these eight countries real per capita GDP rose twice as fast as in any other regional grouping between 1965 and 1990. Even more impressive is their simultaneous significant reduction in poverty and income inequality. Their success is frequently attributed to economic policies, but the authors of this book argue that those economic policies would not have worked unless the leaders of the countries made them credible to their business communities and citizens. Jose Edgardo Campos and Hilton Root challenge the popular belief that East Asia's high performers grew rapidly because they were ruled by authoritarian leaders. They show that these leaders had to collaborate with various sectors of their population to create an environment that was conducive to sustained growth. This required them to persuade the business community that their investments would not be expropriated and to convince the broader population that their short-term sacrifices would be rewarded in the future. Many of the countries achieved business cooperation by creating consultative groups, which the authors call deliberation councils, to enhance accountability and stability. They also obtained popular support through a variety of wealth-sharing measures such as land reform, worker cooperatives, and wider access to education. Finally, to inhibit favoritism and corruption that would benefit narrow interest groups at the expense of broad-based development, these countries' leaders constructed a competent bureaucracy that balanced autonomy with accountability to serve all interests, including the poor. This important book provides useful lessons about how developing and newly industrialized countries can build institutions to implement growth-promoting policies.

Unlocking Africa's Business Potential
Author: Landry Signe
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
ISBN: 0815737394
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
Africa welcomes business investment and offers some of the world's highest returns and impacts Africa has tremendous economic potential and offers rewarding opportunities for global businesses looking for new markets and long-term investments with favorable returns. Africa has been one of the world's fastest-growing regions over the past decade, and by 2030 will be home to nearly 1.7 billion people and an estimated $6.7 trillion worth of consumer and business spending. Increased political stability in recent years and improving regional integration are making market access easier, and business expansion will generate jobs for women and youth, who represent the vast majority of the population. Current economic growth and poverty-alleviation efforts mean that more than 43 percent of the continent's people will reach middle- or upper-class status by 2030. Unlocking Africa's Business Potential examines business opportunities in the eight sectors with the highest potential returns on private investment—the same sectors that will foster economic growth and diversification, job creation, and improved general welfare. These sectors include: consumer markets, agriculture and agriprocessing, information and communication technology, manufacturing, oil and gas, tourism, banking, and infrastructure and construction. The book's analysis of these sectors is based on case studies that identify specific opportunities for investment and growth, along with long-term market projections to inform decision-making. The book identifies potential risks to business and offers mitigation strategies. It also provides policymakers with solutions to attract new business investments, including how to remove barriers to business and accelerate development of the private sector.
