The effectiveness of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is contingent on a smooth transition of the world?s economic center toward the Asia-Pacific Region. For Western investors, the vast market opportunities can be tempting. However, the lack of experience and knowledge of international management in China ? a country with radically different business rules and cultural background ? poses a substantial risk. This book provides comprehensive insights into the fast-changing business world in China. Based on the authors? theoretical knowledge and invaluable years of practical experience, it discusses the various options for doing business in China, with current examples that demonstrate how European SMEs can successfully position themselves between multinational companies and local competitors. It also highlights new opportunities arising from China?s international involvement (New Silk Road, RCEP) and addresses risk management for European SMEs operating in China. Moreover, it sheds light on how to form relationships of mutual trust between Chinese policymakers and their advisors/cooperation partners from abroad. Readers with an interest in doing business in China will find this book particularly valuable. 410 0$aManagement for Professionals,$x2192-810X. 606 $aInvestments, Foreign$zChina 606 $aInternational business enterprises$zChina 606 $aManagement$zChina 606 $aStrategic planning$zChina 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aMarketing 606 $aSmall business 606 $aEmerging Markets and Globalization 606 $aBusiness Strategy and Leadership 606 $aAsian Business 606 $aOrganization 606 $aMarketing 606 $aSmall Business 607 $aChina$xEconomic conditions 607 $aChina$xEconomic policy 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign 615 0$aInternational business enterprises 615 0$aManagement 615 0$aStrategic planning 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aMarketing. 615 0$aSmall business. 615 14$aEmerging Markets and Globalization. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy and Leadership. 615 24$aAsian Business. 615 24$aOrganization. 615 24$aMarketing. 615 24$aSmall Business. 676 $a332.6730951 700 $aDathe$b Tracy$01213540 701 $aMüller$b Volker$061409 701 $aHelmold$b Marc$0854108 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bGW5XE 801 2$bYDX 801 2$bEBLCP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734896103321 996 $aBusiness Opportunities and Risks in China$93403830 997 $aUNINA
