Emerging Opportunities in Asia

Q&A with Kaushik Shaparia, Regional Head of Trade Finance & Cash Management for Corporates, Asia Pacific Global Transaction Banking, Deutsche Bank

Emerging markets will continue to drive global growth, particularly China and other parts of Asia. This growth is strongly apparent in trade flows both within Asia and between Asian countries and other markets in Europe, North America, Latin America and Africa, positioning Asia as a dynamic trade partner for the world. Even though 2014 is likely to bring some economic recovery in the US and Europe, Asia remains a powerhouse of growth.

What does this mean for multinational corporations?

Asia’s strong economic potential means that corporations of all sizes need to make strategic decisions about the extent to which they wish to leverage the growth opportunities that exist. Many are embracing these opportunities with enthusiasm, resulting in significant levels of liquidity being placed in Asia, creating a vigorous and motivated trading environment. With intra-Asia trade flows continuing to strengthen, companies that can take advantage of these trade routes will gain a competitive advantage.
