「出かける。 全体的に」行くことは長く中国の政府のずっと競争状態の開発の奨励のための再結集の叫びである。 それは主明白な方針である。

いいえ、私達はオリンピックここで述べていない; 「行く全体的に」平均経済学および企業。

そしてイギリスのための中国の平均ビジネス。

レッスンはこれらのビジネスオリンピックの成功へのキーが…ではないことである

WTOを結合した後一致そして改良

WTOが中国によってが参加したときに、構成は国の銀行ビジネスに関する特別な義務に従うために中国を要求した。 中国は2001年- 2006年からのWTOを参加した後5年以内の外国の銀行に銀行セクターを完全に開けることに同意しなければならなかった。 中国はとりわけ一致した、それ外国の銀行が外国通貨ビジネスを市場アクセスか国民の処置の限定なしで達成し、ある特定の地理的な制限に応じて外国投資された会社および外国の個人との外国通貨ビジネスを、行なうようにする。 WTOを結合した後2年、外国の銀行は特別で地理的な限定に応じて、そして中国がすべての地理的な制限を解除することに同意する5年以内に中国の会社との国内通貨ビジネスを行なえたべきである。 中国によってはまた外国の銀行が中国同等と同時に財政のリースサービスを提供することが一致した。

但し、中国は一致の実行で遅かった。 In 2002 the People’s Bank of China issued regulations governing foreign-funded banks along with rules to keep pace with the WTO commitments but the PBOC was extremely cautious in opening their bank sector. This situation made it difficult for foreign banks to enter the market and expand their presence. To give an example, the PBOC allowed foreign-funded banks only to open one branch every 12 months. Of course this resulted in pressure from countries such as the USA, Australia, Canada Japan and several European countries. Therefore the PBOC announced in December 2003 that foreign banks were permitted to conduct domestic currency business with Chinese companies and the working capital requirements for foreign banks were reduced.

My friend Chris Carr, dean of the CalPoly MBA program and the brains behind the International Business Tour blog has a very thoughtful post, entitled, “Will Paying More Change Behavior And Make Someone More Ethical?” Thoughtful, but wrong.

When the China Industrial and Commercial Bank (ICBC) opened for public trading at the stock exchange end of October, the bank raised a total of USD 19.1 billion to start with, achieving the largest initial public offering ever. ICBC is now the top listed bank in Asia and the fifth biggest in the world.

Despite the enthusiasm created by ICBC’s listing, and the fact that international advisors such as Morgan Stanley are planning to add ICBC to its standard index soon, some analysts are still concerned about the basics and fundamentals of China’s banking industry. Over a long period, loans were approved by politically motivated reasons rather than economic decisions, and on several occasions, banks previously had to be “bailed out” by the government.

History of the Banking Industry in China

In the earlier years of the People’s Republic nationalization, the consolidation of the country’s banks received the highest priority. Therefore the banking industry was the first sector to be socialized. In order to maintain a firm control over all financial services, including credit and money supply, the banking system was centralized under the Ministry of Finance.

China has been trying to stem an ever growing trade surplus, manage domestic inflation, move development from the coastal areas to the inland areas and decrease its dependence on heavily polluting industries.

Because of these objectives, manufacturing in China is becoming more expensive as China adds in hidden (and sometimes not so hidden) costs into the sourcing equation. 

Here are the top 4 reasons you can expect costs to continue to rise in 2008:
