Challenges and Opportunities in Asia

Now is a good time for treasurers of multinationals to take a high-level look at both the challenges and the opportunities available in the Asia-Pacific region.

By Seth Brener, Joseph Mauro | Updated on February 28, 2017
Asia is often recognized as a dynamic region that presents excellent growth opportunities for international corporations, and rightly so. But the dynamic quality of Asian markets can be a double-edged sword. Change can be difficult to stay on top of—and, more important, digest—for businesses facing unique opportunities.

This is no different for corporate treasurers than for other executives. Trying to run an efficient treasury model in Asia is challenging in some key ways. Barriers to efficient liquidity management are well-known, as some Asian countries place tight restrictions on the flow of funds across their borders. At the same time, however, the diversity of regulatory climates throughout the region presents significant opportunities for multinational businesses that are paying attention. Asia offers favorable circumstances related to faster payments and a higher degree of bank account rationalization than do most parts of the world.

Savvy treasurers who understand the regulatory nuances of different countries across Asia can better prepare their companies to take advantage of opportunities in the region.
