Businesses that trade across South-East Asia and China, after a tumultuous year of preservation and seeking stability, are preparing for growth as they enter the post-pandemic era with future resilience very much top of mind. The region and its trade corridors are undergoing a state of change with ASEAN overtaking the EU to become China’s number one trading partner in 2020, a growth that has been buoyed in part by China importing one-third of its integrated circuits from the region as well as three-fifths of its computers. The multilateral trade pact, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), as well as the somewhat overlapping Trans Pan-Pacific (TPP), highlight a step towards tighter integration between the economies in Asia, with RCEP estimated to add $186bn to global GDP. Asia is home to the largest contributor to the worldwide build-up of preferential trade agreements and South-East Asia is home to economies that have grown between 5-7% for the last decade. The pandemic has emphasised the need to secure trade and supply chain connectivity on essential goods. The future looks bright for businesses and supply chains across South-East Asia and China who are positioned to make the most of the opportunities the region has to offer.
Geopolitical tensions and regulatory divergences continue to exist however, and economic recovery across the region will not be uniform. What must organisations do to maximise their trade potential while enhancing their risk protection in 2021?
In this online panel discussion hosted by an Economist Group editor, we will ask 3-4 experts for their thoughts on how Chinese businesses can capitalise on the flourishing trade between China and ASEAN.
Key questions that we'll be putting to the panel:

Opening doors to diverse opportunities
ASEAN’s fast-growing consumer markets, rapidly maturing supplier landscape, and regional trade links offer Chinese companies a strong growth potential in sectors such as high-value manufacturing, energy and digital services. This paper looks at high potential opportunities for cross-border growth and showcases key areas of focus for Chinese companies to succeed in the region as the world recovers from COVID-19.
