Guide to Successful Investment and Development in China

Guide to Successful Investment and Development in China

China has become the second biggest economy in the world and turned into a global economic powerhouse that no Western company or investor can afford to ignore. A few figures can serve as a useful reminder of China’s weight: a population of 1.4 billion inhabitants (20% of the world’s population), ten cities of more than 10 million inhabitants, more than 6% of GDP growth in 2016, etc.

Today, China is still facing some challenges, such as the development of its Western provinces, the development of its consumer market or the fight against pollution. However, these are also opportunities for further development, particularly for Western companies that can offer to the Chinese market their expertise in these fields.
