The European Chamber is delighted to invite you to a breakfast seminar to hear about the findings of the insightful and influential Coface payments & corporate management survey.
China just became the 2nd largest economy in 2010 and will maintain a rapid growth rate in 2011 at just under 10%. With slow economic recovery of industrialized countries last year, China has focused attention on increasing domestic consumption and becoming less reliant on exports as a growth driver. How was the payment situation of domestic market in 2010? Has it improved because of China's internal economic growth, or worsened by higher inflation pressure? What are the major concerns of Chinese enterprises in 2011 in relation to their buyers’ credit?
Coface, an international credit insurance and credit management services group, conducted its 8th survey of corporate management in China to study the payment experience and credit management practices of 1,000 Chinese enterprises in the last quarter of 2010. The findings of the survey will give you insights on payment risks when dealing with Chinese companies.
• What is the latest default situation in the China market?
• Will the positive impacts from the stimulus package back in 2010 continue this year?
• What types of companies are more risky to trade with?
• Which industries are more risky in China?
