The Chinese Market and International
Business
[ send
me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses the advantages and disadvantages presented by the
Chinese market for international business development and marketing. In 1998,
new policies were enacted in China to increase foreign investments and marketing
expansion in the country. They included the optimization of foreign-funded
industrial structure, the expansion of foreign investments into the
petrochemical and construction sectors, improved allocation of foreign
investments and attracting businesses from North America and the European Union.
Despite setbacks, China still appears to be making a successful transition from
central planning to greater market orientation. Compared to many of the
transition economies in other parts of the world, it has largely avoided the
enormously high inflation, recession and unemployment rates others have
experienced. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
