The Economy

China remains one of the most dynamic and exciting markets in the world. It is continuing its move from a planned to a market economy and has now implemented all the agreements it made to join the World Trade Organisation. Strong GDP growth, a market of 1.3 billion people and further liberalisation of the economy and regulatory environment make China a key market for any multinational company.
