ASEAN STATES WITH GDP
|
Overall, ASEAN's economic growth has been driven by its young and growing population, as well as its strategic location as a gateway to the Asia-Pacific region. While the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the region's economies, many countries have been able to adapt and rebound. With continued investment in infrastructure, innovation, and education, ASEAN is poised for continued economic growth and development in the years to come.
A Growing Market
The ASEAN region is experiencing rapid economic growth and has become an increasingly important market for companies around the world. The region's economic growth rate has been consistently higher than the global average for the past decade. The IMF has predicted that the ASEAN region will continue to grow at a rate of around 5% per year, which presents a significant opportunity for midsize companies.
A Booming Middle Class
The middle class is expanding rapidly in the ASEAN region, and this presents a huge opportunity for midsize companies. The growing middle class is driving demand for higher-quality products and services, and companies that can cater to this demand stand to benefit significantly.
Low Labor Costs
The cost of labor in the ASEAN region is relatively low compared to other regions of the world. This makes it an attractive location for midsize companies that are looking to set up manufacturing facilities or outsource their operations.
Favorable Government Policies
The governments of the ASEAN countries are committed to promoting economic growth and attracting foreign investment. They have implemented policies and initiatives that are favorable to businesses, such as tax incentives, streamlined regulations, and investment-friendly policies.
Access to Regional Markets
The ASEAN region offers access to a vast market of over 600 million consumers, and it is also strategically located near other major markets such as China and India. Midsize companies that set up operations in the ASEAN region can leverage this strategic location to expand their business into these other markets.
Infrastructure Development
The ASEAN region is investing heavily in infrastructure development, such as ports, airports, roads, and railways. This is improving the region's connectivity and reducing the costs of doing business. The development of infrastructure is also attracting more foreign investment, which is creating new opportunities for midsize companies.
High Technology Adoption
The ASEAN region has been quick to adopt new technologies, such as mobile and internet technologies. This presents new opportunities for midsize companies that are developing innovative products and services. The high adoption rate of new technologies also means that midsize companies can leverage these technologies to improve their operations and reduce costs.
In conclusion, the ASEAN region offers numerous opportunities for midsize companies to expand their business and tap into new markets. The region's growing economy, booming middle class, low labor costs, favorable government policies, access to regional markets, infrastructure development, and high technology adoption make it an attractive location for businesses. Midsize companies that are looking to expand their business should seriously consider the ASEAN region as a viable option.

INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION LUNCHON-TALK 6 Feb 2023, London
An interview of Simon Denton (Sovereign Group) with Gerrit Stroomann (Expandeers) on:
Evaluating the weakening national economy as an opportunity for international growth
On 6th February our MD Gerrit Stroomann held a speech on the state of British economy and options in international business to get around Brexit hangover and overcome an economically unfavorable situation of the UK.
The introductory speech and following interview between Simon Denton of Sovereign Group and Gerrit D. Stroomann, Managing Partner of Expandeers Global Group, discussed the weakening national economy of the United Kingdom as an opportunity for international growth. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently announced that the G7 countries will experience GDP growth this calendar year, with the exception of the United Kingdom (-0.6%) majorly due to the impacts of Brexit that are adding to the cost of COVID-19, and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and associated issues. The interview focuses on the options for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and larger corporates in terms of market entry and expansion in the European Union, starting with Germany as an idea.
The recent complications due to Brexit have made it difficult for SMEs to expand their business across the EU and the UK. A recent survey by the British Chambers of Commerce found that half of 500 SMEs asked are struggling with current European exports, and the difficulty of obtaining visas for employees and supplies from mainland Europe. The Economic & Social Research Institute in Dublin reported a 16% decline in UK exports and a 20% decline in EU exports to the UK due to Brexit. The UK has also seen a 25% decline in investment from the EU.
To overcome these challenges, the interview suggests diversifying businesses and focusing on a strategy that puts advantages of production, supply, and sales together. Expanding to the European market makes sense, as it is culturally familiar and most companies have the most experience with this market, whether it be good or bad. The most favorable European market for British companies to expand to will depend on the specific needs and goals of the company. Several factors must be considered, including market size and growth potential, access to talent, infrastructure and transportation, legal and regulatory environment, and taxation and costs.
Expanding to the Middle East and the ASEAN states also offer opportunities for growth and expansion. The Middle East is an attractive market due to its large and growing population, increasing wealth, and growing demand for goods and services. The ASEAN states, particularly Southeast Asia, have been experiencing robust economic growth, making them attractive markets for international businesses. Both regions have diverse cultures, languages, and regulatory environments, so it is essential for companies to carefully evaluate their options and conduct thorough market research before entering these markets.
The ways of doing internationalization for midsize companies, success cases, pitfalls, recommendations, and the advantages of working with a competent service provider.
Expanding your company internationally can be a complex process, but it can also be a very rewarding way to grow your business. Here are a few steps you can take to expand your company internationally.
1. Research potential markets: Identify countries or regions where there is demand for your products or services.
2. Evaluate your resources: Consider the resources you have available, such as financial resources, human resources, and operational capacity, and how they will support your international expansion.
3. Develop a strategy: Create a plan that outlines your goals, target markets, and the steps you will take to enter and succeed in those markets.
4. Consider your business model: Decide whether you will enter a new market through exporting, licensing, joint ventures, or establishing a subsidiary.
5. Establish a presence: Set up a physical location in the target market, or consider using a local distributor or sales agent.
6. Understand local regulations and cultural differences: Research the local business environment, including any regulations or laws that may impact your business.
7. Build relationships: Network with local businesses, industry groups, and potential customers to establish relationships and build support for your business.
Internationalization for midsize companies can be done in a number of ways, including:
Each way has its own advantages and disadvantages, it's important to evaluate the company's resources, goals, and risk appetite to choose the best option.
Hydrogen has been touted as a clean and efficient fuel source for decades, and its use in powering engines has been the subject of much research and development. While hydrogen has many potential advantages as a fuel, it also has some significant disadvantages that must be considered. In this article, we will explore the pros and cons of using hydrogen as a fuel for engines.
High energy density: Hydrogen has a high energy density, meaning that it contains a lot of energy relative to its weight. This makes it an attractive fuel source for portable applications, such as in fuel cell vehicles or portable generators.
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play a crucial role in driving economic growth and innovation in any region. For businesses looking to expand their operations into the Middle East, there are many opportunities and challenges to consider.
One of the key advantages of expanding into the Middle East is the region's strong economic growth. Many countries in the region have experienced significant increases in GDP in recent years, and this trend is expected to continue in the future. This provides a solid foundation for businesses looking to enter the market.
Another key advantage is the region's strategic location. The Middle East is home to some of the world's busiest trade routes, making it an ideal location for businesses looking to tap into the global market. In addition, the region's proximity to major markets such as Europe, Asia, and Africa makes it an attractive location for businesses looking to expand their operations on a global scale.
However, expanding into the Middle East also presents a number of challenges. One of the key challenges is the diverse nature of the region, with each country having its own unique cultural, economic, and political landscape. This can make it difficult for businesses to navigate and understand the local market.
Another challenge is the lack of a unified legal framework across the region. This can make it difficult for businesses to understand and comply with the various legal requirements in different countries.
In order to overcome these challenges, businesses looking to expand into the Middle East should consider seeking the advice of local experts or consulting firms. These experts can provide valuable insights into the local market and help businesses navigate the legal and regulatory landscape.
In conclusion, expanding into the Middle East presents both opportunities and challenges for SMEs. However, with the right strategies and support, businesses can succeed in this dynamic and rapidly-growing region.
