What Korean exporters need to boost their occupation rate in China market

Will all these be possible?

According to DBS, President Park completed a 4-day trip to China on June 30th, her first official visit to Beijing after taking office in February. 

During her meetings with China’s top leaders, the two sides have agreed to push forward the Korea-China free trade negotiation, extend the KRW-CNY currency swap line, and strengthen cooperation in the areas of green energy, services, high-tech and etc.

Here's more from DBS:

China is currently Korea’s largest trade partner, accounting for 25% of Korea’s exports and 15% of its imports. Aimed for an establishment of free trade area across Northeast Asia, the official negotiations for the China-Korea FTA and China-Japan-Korea FTA have both been initiated last year.

A removal of the cross-border tariff and non-tariff trade barriers will help Korean exporters to boost their occupation rate in China’s domestic consumer market.

By expediting the signing of the Korea-China FTA, Korean firms could be provided with na timing opportunity to gain market share in China ahead of the Japanese competitors.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
