The Shanghai stock market continues to defy expectations — up nearly 100% in 2007. Most of the commentary on the Shanghai market depicts the average Chinese investor as unknowledgeable and following the herd. However, a recent study that we’ve (kapronasia) just completed with Amber shows that individual Shanghai A-share investors are actually much more market savvy than commonly thought.

Although influences like lucky numbers and family advice still impact some decision making, the reality is that most investment decisions today are made on the basis of solid indicators like company fundamentals and straight-forward economics. However, even with this knowledge, Chinese investors still invest in a market that they clearly view as overvalued.

For the non-lawyer among us, forming the legal entity for a new business can act as a small roadblock in the early stages. In China, formation can be a much larger roadblock, especially as a foreigner trying to navigate countless ministries, language barriers, develop the necessary guanxi, and just generally figure out how the system works.

Due to this, my idea was to have my business started in China in the name of a local partner who’d be responsible for all government, incorporation, and tax issues while leaving me with execution and operations side of the business. In fact, its much easier for Chinese to start a business (in China) than foreigners. Indeed, Chinese persons only need CNY1 to be able to start a business. Anyway, I thought this was the best plan, but then questions of selling, repatriation of profits, etc started to creep into my mind so I sought additional advice.

Maintaining your IP Portfolio

By Maarten Roos 

To maintain the exclusive rights to IP, an organization must have the mechanisms in place to guarantee continued protection.

First of all, someone must ensure that registered IP rights maintain their validity. Trademarks are registered for 10 years at a time, thus registrations should be extended before the ending of such a validity period. Failure to do so will result in the loss of all exclusive rights to the trademark. Domain names are cheap and easy to register, but a maintenance fee must be paid. Granted patents and designs will have a non-extendable validity of 10 years (for design and utility model patents) or 20 years (for invention) from the filing date, but an annuity must be paid each year to ensure continued validity.

Learn lessons from some of the leading companies in China

By Russel Beron

Innovation is a word we are hearing a lot more of in China these days. The consensus is that as manufacturing costs in China continue to rise and supply chain complexity increases, so companies have to innovate both to save money and to increase efficiency.

In this story we take a deeper look into what a few companies and individuals in China, both foreign and Chinese are doing to lead the way in service, supplier management, IT implementation, as well as cost and process efficiency. These companies and individuals were all winners of awards at the November 2007 CHaINA Summit.

Advances across the supply chain in China are taking the form of new IT implementations, greater levels of service through 3PL’s, better supplier management, strategic location of operations and an increased focus on domestic R&D and development of local human and other resources.
