Businesses must stay alert as China economy evolves, says HSBC

KUALA LUMPUR: Businesses must remain vigilant as China’s economic cycle evolves, especially those companies engaged in overseas trade after the world’s second largest economic released its economic data, according to HSBC Malaysia.

China's economy grew slightly faster than financial markets expected in the second three months of 2016, expanding by 6.7% from a year ago to stay flat to the pace set in Q1 when growth was at its slowest quarter since 2009.

HSBC Malaysia’s head of global trade and receivables finance, Debbie Mak, said the data showed the need for businesses to remain vigilant as the economic cycle evolves.

"China's growth prospects are crucial for companies engaged in overseas trade and today's data underscore the importance of prudently managing balance sheet and working capital risks in this current phase of the economic cycle," she said.

Fixed asset investment growth, a key gauge of the resilience of economic performance, slipped to 9% in the first half of 2016 versus 9.6% in the first five months of the year.

Private sector investment rose 2.8% in the first half of the year, down from 3.9% in the first five months.

China continues to remain as Malaysia’s largest trading partner for the 7th consecutive year since 2009. Over the years, both countries have pledged to build stronger all-round strategic partnership in areas including trade, finance, port development and logistics, banking and infrastructure.

Mak said Chinese companies are eyeing opportunities in Malaysia.

“Reflecting the opportunities, China's M&A into Malaysia has been the busiest on record, both in terms of volume and number of big deals. Real estate, consumer products and retail have been the most active sectors,” she added.

From January to July 2015, Chinese M&A into Malaysia rose nearly four times to US$830mil compared with the entire 2014, she said.

“It is also expected that trade between Malaysia and China will reach US$160bil by 2017,” May added.

Businesses must stay alert as China economy evolves, says HSBC

KUALA LUMPUR: Businesses must remain vigilant as China’s economic cycle evolves, especially those companies engaged in overseas trade after the world’s second largest economic released its economic data, according to HSBC Malaysia.

China's economy grew slightly faster than financial markets expected in the second three months of 2016, expanding by 6.7% from a year ago to stay flat to the pace set in Q1 when growth was at its slowest quarter since 2009.

HSBC Malaysia’s head of global trade and receivables finance, Debbie Mak, said the data showed the need for businesses to remain vigilant as the economic cycle evolves.

"China's growth prospects are crucial for companies engaged in overseas trade and today's data underscore the importance of prudently managing balance sheet and working capital risks in this current phase of the economic cycle," she said.

Fixed asset investment growth, a key gauge of the resilience of economic performance, slipped to 9% in the first half of 2016 versus 9.6% in the first five months of the year.

Private sector investment rose 2.8% in the first half of the year, down from 3.9% in the first five months.

China continues to remain as Malaysia’s largest trading partner for the 7th consecutive year since 2009. Over the years, both countries have pledged to build stronger all-round strategic partnership in areas including trade, finance, port development and logistics, banking and infrastructure.

Mak said Chinese companies are eyeing opportunities in Malaysia.

“Reflecting the opportunities, China's M&A into Malaysia has been the busiest on record, both in terms of volume and number of big deals. Real estate, consumer products and retail have been the most active sectors,” she added.

From January to July 2015, Chinese M&A into Malaysia rose nearly four times to US$830mil compared with the entire 2014, she said.

“It is also expected that trade between Malaysia and China will reach US$160bil by 2017,” May added.

Mak said Chinese companies are eyeing opportunities in Malaysia.

“Reflecting the opportunities, China's M&A into Malaysia has been the busiest on record, both in terms of volume and number of big deals. Real estate, consumer products and retail have been the most active sectors,” she added.

From January to July 2015, Chinese M&A into Malaysia rose nearly four times to US$830mil compared with the entire 2014, she said.

“It is also expected that trade between Malaysia and China will reach US$160bil by 2017,” May added.

Businesses must stay alert as China economy evolves, says HSBC

KUALA LUMPUR: Businesses must remain vigilant as China’s economic cycle evolves, especially those companies engaged in overseas trade after the world’s second largest economic released its economic data, according to HSBC Malaysia.

China's economy grew slightly faster than financial markets expected in the second three months of 2016, expanding by 6.7% from a year ago to stay flat to the pace set in Q1 when growth was at its slowest quarter since 2009.

HSBC Malaysia’s head of global trade and receivables finance, Debbie Mak, said the data showed the need for businesses to remain vigilant as the economic cycle evolves.

"China's growth prospects are crucial for companies engaged in overseas trade and today's data underscore the importance of prudently managing balance sheet and working capital risks in this current phase of the economic cycle," she said.

Fixed asset investment growth, a key gauge of the resilience of economic performance, slipped to 9% in the first half of 2016 versus 9.6% in the first five months of the year.

Private sector investment rose 2.8% in the first half of the year, down from 3.9% in the first five months.

China continues to remain as Malaysia’s largest trading partner for the 7th consecutive year since 2009. Over the years, both countries have pledged to build stronger all-round strategic partnership in areas including trade, finance, port development and logistics, banking and infrastructure.

Mak said Chinese companies are eyeing opportunities in Malaysia.
