Our Focus
Our primary focus is on Asia, with a particular emphasis on Southeast Asia. Leveraging our deep connections with the Asian elite and an extensive network of researchers, we provide invaluable, up-to-date, and accurate on-the-ground information.
Why Asia
The world's economic epicenter has shifted from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic, and now to the Pacific. Today, Pacific Asia stands as the fulcrum of global economics, where trade, business, and great-power competition converge. This region, looking outward to the United States and eastward towards Europe, is pivotal. China, Japan, India, South Korea, and countries in Southeast Asia, and India, through their intricate relationships amongst themselves, and with the Americas and Australasia, they form a dynamic bloc. Their strategic and economic decisions significantly influence the global trajectory, impacting powers such as the United States, Russia, and the European Union. Understanding Asia today is to anticipate the world of tomorrow, and we provide the insights to navigate this landscape.
Why Southeast Asia
Strategically located south of China and east of India, Southeast Asia is a region of unparalleled growth and potential. As these nations transition from agrarian economies to vibrant, outward-looking markets open to trade and investment, new opportunities abound. Political liberalization further enhances engagement prospects and fosters international collaborations.
Asean
the Association of Southeast Asian Nations – unites 10 countries: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Recognizing ASEAN's efforts towards economic integration, which culminated in the formation of the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015, multinationals are reshaping their investment strategies. ASEAN countries are increasingly operating as a unified market of 655 million people, rather than as a disparate group of ten. This consolidation of resources and strategies positions ASEAN as a formidable player in the global economy, overcoming economic and social diversity to drive forward collective success.
