CHINA
growth everywhere
China’s economy is between 8-10 times the size that it was at the
beginning of reform in 1978.
Domestic demand as growth engine – exports are less than 30% of
overall production.
Less than 50% of GDP now state-controlled and only an extremely
small number of goods are price controlled.
Dramatic expansion in the private sector – aggressive
entrepreneurialism has produced 2.5 million firms, providing bulk of
employment, tax and overall national growth.
China’s growth has been powered by latent demand, the
entrepreneurial energy unleashed by the country’s unprecedented
reforms, and inherent inefficiencies
Emerging large and consuming middle class - growing fast

+300 million with significant discretionary spending power by 2010

CHINA
a hungry dragon
China has become the world’s largest consumer of copper,
consuming 22,000 tons and importing more than 7,000 tons
every day
China has become the world’s largest producer of steel,
outpacing both Japan and the USA, importing 408,000 tons of
iron ore every day
China is now importing 1,750,000 barrels of oil every day

CHINA
capital flow continues
China is attracting external capital as the global epicenter for
manufacturing, largely because of its’ low labor costs.

Investment exceeds $50 billion US annually
Investments in processing, assembly, redistribution and value
added businesses in China continue to increase relative to
Southeast Asia, India and Latin America.
Foreign and Chinese manufacturers are building out global
supply channels from China.
Chinese consumers and raw material users are influencing
global pricing in many industries.
