Australia-China Business Week 2013 Roadshows in Shanghai, Melbourne, Sydney

A

fter 5-years operating in Australia, Australia-China Business Week (ACBW) 2013 has been launched in China for the first time this year with the inaugural ACBW Shanghai in April, followed by the annual Melbourne and Sydney forums.

Presented by Australian Business Forum (ABF) with naming-sponsor NAB this year ACBW builds a platform for Chinese and Australian enterprises and individuals to learn about the latest economic and business trends, meet the potential partners and take their business to the next level. In the context of the significant language and cultural barriers between the two countries, business platforms such as ACBW provide effective communication channels for both sides. According to Ray Evans, CEO of ABF, ACBW focuses on the SME sector “who depend more on external resources, partners and platforms when seeking opportunities in international markets”. “The aim is to create a credible business platform for businesses and investors from Australia and China to connect with the right contacts and have access to timely information on the opportunities in these two countries.” said Mr Evans.

The aim is to create a credible business platform for businesses and investors from Australia and China to connect with the right contacts and have access to timely information on the opportunities in these two countries.”

- John Rashleigh. Chairman of ABF ACBW Shanghai: 10-12 April 2013, Westin Bund Center ACBW Shanghai included six functions in Shanghai plus a day trip to the major second tier city of Hangzhou, providing delegates with the rare opportunity to connect with Chinese partners; showcase Australian products, services, projects and investment opportunities to potential Chinese investors; review economic and business opportunities in China; and gain firsthand knowledge about how to maximise business in China from local experts.

Over seventy delegates from Melbourne, Sydney and WA attended Shanghai and Hangzhou to review

local business opportunities and connect with Chinese partners and investors. Over thirty prominent speakers delivered presentations in English & Mandarin, covering a range of critical trade & commercial issues affecting the small and medium-sized enterprises ACBW Forum Chair and ACBCNSW Vice President David Thomas remarked: “In a week of a Prime Ministerial visit, the BOAO Forum for Asia and big policy announcements, Australia China Business Week added the one missing piece to the SinoAustralian relationship, a bilingual and multi-faceted business matching forum designed to connect Australian SME businesses with Chinese business leaders, entrepreneurs and investors.”

Over five hundred delegates and visitors attended the inaugural ACBW 2013 two day forum which will return again in October 2014.

ACBW Melbourne: 19 June 2013, Crown ACBW 2013 Melbourne set a new record attendance with over eight hundred visitors. Australian business executives seeking opportunities from China’s booming economy and growing demand were joined by 150 Chinese high net worth individuals seeking business and investment opportunities in Victoria...

Victorian Treasurer Michael O’Brien MP presented the keynote address at the ACBW Melbourne Luncheon welcoming investment from China and encouraging the mutual benefits for both countries. The Treasurer urged Federal government to approve the free trade agreement between Australia and China, which will help Victoria to attract Chinese investment and increase trade activities especially for farm and dairy products.

Also at the luncheon the Chinese Commercial Counsellor Liu Yu pointed out that despite the large attention and extensive exposure on China’s economy growth, in fact Chinese investment in Australia only consists of a small part of the country’s total foreign direct investment being less than one precent. According to Ms Liu, this April, the Chinese government has made it abundantly clear that the country is determined to seek

investment opportunities abroad and engage with global markets. Never has there been such a golden opportunity for Australian companies to attract Chinese investors seeking to expend overseas.

ACBW Sydney: 28 August 2013, Sheraton On The Park Premier of NSW The Hon. Barry O’Farrell MP and the newly appointed Consul General of P.R.C. in Sydney, H.E. Li Huaxin, delivered keynote addresses at ACBW Sydney Luncheon to discuss the sustained business relationship between New South Wales and China.

In addition to the Luncheon, which had a distinctly government focus, ACBW 2013 Sydney Breakfast with leading economists provided in-depth panel discussion of China’s latest economic trends and future outlook with moderator Mark Hawthorne.. With the many industry panel discussions

and keynote addresses throughout the day focusing on major issues facing SME’S, such as “what China’s outbound investment strategy means to Australia”, “how to pitch to Chinese investors” and “how to market in China”. An important feature event mandarin-speaking Chinese forum hosted a variety of high net-worth Chinese investors in a multitude of industry segments who are looking to form stable, enduring Sino-Australian alliances.

The newly launched Investment Showcase offers Australian businesses a unique opportunity to showcase their projects to potential Chinese partners and investors.

ACBW Sydney is the final forum in the three city program for 2013. Next year, ACBW will be expanded even further to include Guangzhou, one of the most important port cities in South China.

ACBW 2014 will be presented four major cities in Australia and China: Melbourne (March), Guangzhou (June), Sydney (August) and Shanghai (October). For more information, please visit: www.abforum.com.au

“I enjoyed both ACBW Shanghai and Hangzhou. It was a great first offshore ACBW event! ABF’s organization and attention to fine details are exemplary. Thank you for your hospitality and looking forward to future events.

“Congratulations on a very successful ACBW Melbourne. Having been involved in the business events industry for more than 16 years as part of my various roles, I understand and noticed every attention to detail that your team has put into the event, including pre and post event details.”

The Australian Business Forum benefits me in 2 particular ways. First it brings together key participants operating between Australia and China who I can speak with. Second, it produces exceptionally good events, which are a must attend.

Having worked in Funds Management for over 15 years, I have participated in a great number of Industry conferences and events. I can genuinely say that content wise it addresses all my needs from a business perspective, and the opportunity to meet new people and network with them are as good as anywhere in Australia.

There is not an event I go to where I don’t come away with a pocket full of business cards and appointments and meetings coming from there.

If you are already in a business operating between Australia and China, or are looking to dip your toe into the water, ABF events (Forum and China Lunch Club) are a must

Insights from ACBW 2013 Naming Sponsor NAB

Key Considerations for Your Business Strategy into China

By NAB Business Research & Insights (business.nab.com.au)

China: alive and kicking China is going through a period of significant change as their economy begins the shift away from their traditional investment and exports led model to a more developed economy where services and consumption play a much larger role. These changes are likely to present a number of significant challenges to China, particularly given the difficult global environment that has prevailed in recent years, but they will also generate just as many opportunities.

What does China’s investment strategy mean for Australia?

The Chinese government’s five-year plan is based on a three-pronged strategy: Going Out (outbound investment), Going West (developing trade and transport hubs in western China) and Going Green. For Australia, China’s Going Out strategy is of critical importance.

Chinese outbound investors fall into two key categories: 1.

State owned enterprises: typically seeking strategic, long-term and complex investment.

2.

Private investors: often wealthy

entrepreneurs, concerned with diversification, secure returns, and family succession opportunities.

Opportunities for private investors centre around:

the web continues to grow, driven by technology improvements and increased mobile usage. So if you’re doing business in China, having some kind of web presence is essential. Key considerations include:

•

•

Your ‘Page 1’ matters: not just the look and feel, but the language.

If your consumer can’t read your page, they will click elsewhere.

•

Understand the limitations of the internet in China: that means no Facebook, YouTube or Twitter access. Partnering with an experienced online agency will ensure you can execute basic online media/content through the right local channels that are right for your brand.

•

Start with basics: if you have marketing dollars to allocate, first base is generally Search Engine Marketing (SEM) and language translation for some key pages.

• • •

The expansion of China’s services sector.

Premium consumers desiring luxury brands.

Outbound tourism.

Investment in food security and safety.

Being aware of the changes to the Significant Investment visa and how this may benefit a potential Chinese investor is also important. Business migrants with $5 million or more to invest in the Australian economy can now apply for the visa, which provides a streamlined pathway to permanent residence for migrant investors who make a complying investment in Australia for a minimum of four years.

Power of China Online It is estimated that the number of Chinese web users will overtake English language users world-wide by 2015, and web experts anticipate the size and volume of the Chinese online market to overtake the United States as the world’s largest soon. The Chinese obsession with

E-commerce in Practice in China

By Dezan Shira & Associates

A

lthough far from a level playing field for foreign investors, the Chinese economy has one sector that is relatively accessible for foreign businesses: online retailing.

For Australian businesses which have set up a Foreign-Invested Commercial Enterprise (FICE) they can sell online the same range of products that they sell in their physical locations. Actually getting Chinese consumers to buy these products however, requires navigating the universe of the Chinese-language internet. Businesses can either set up their own websites of use one of the many third-party platforms already available.

Alibaba undoubtedly dominates the B2B world, while its subsidiaries Tmall and TaoBao are for B2C and C2C

12

vendors, respectively. Surf brand Island Haze uses the Tmall platform. Their online retail experience has a bilingual English/Chinese interface that includes integrated multimedia content hosted within Youku (China’s equivalent of Youtube). To reduce risk aversion for first-time buyers the AutoNavi map on Tmall pinpoints where transactions across China have been carried out.

Other FIEs seeking to get their brands off the ground in China and want to use third-party platforms will be required to upload pictures of their business license, passport (or id certificate) of legal representative and company bank account info for examination and approval by the online trading platform. For some industries, such as cosmetics and food, additional permits will be required. Business licenses must

also be prominently displayed on store homepages.

The alternative to these third party platforms such as Tmall is to set up a stand-alone online shop. Again, these online shops can only sell the same range of products as are sold in the physical store. Also, an ICP filing must be made (this is the “ICP备” seen at the bottom of many websites). Although third party platforms may appear to be faster routes to market, it may be easy to be overshadowed by competitors on those shared services and there are advantages to having a user experience that is 100% designed and developed by your own brand. Wine importer Everwines complements its physical stores with a robust online presence.

The Everwines online store allows for

subscription to a regular newsletter that features in-store events along with online promotions. The company also offers membership schemes to promote the development of strong customer relationships, and even holds wine tasting classes via a self-branded ‘wine college’. These offline activities ultimately translate to online sales, which are often more convenient to fulfil compared to buying in-store.

The Everwines online retail platform requires registration to process payments, which are enabled via standard bank transfers with Chinese banks and Alipay, which is China’s dominant online payment solution (the equivalent of Paypal). Customers can also opt to pay via cash and credit card upon delivery, significantly lowering risk.

The issue of risk is a great hurdle for retailers in China, where a ‘low-trust economy’ prevails. Contrary to the developed nations where individuals and businesses are more willing to take one another’s word on meeting payment or delivery obligations, the Chinese are still highly risk averse, preferring face-to-face transactions.

This is slowly changing, and payment solutions such as Alipay, that withhold funds until deliveries are fulfilled, help to distribute risk evenly between buyers and sellers.

Australian brands looking to sell online in China should plan ahead during the initial set up. Be sure to include online sales on the business scope of the China entity so that it doesn’t have to be changed later. No matter whether a business uses a platform such as Tmall or has its own online shop, content needs to be fully localized and retailers should adapt to payment methods that Chinese consumers feel comfortable with, such as Alipay or cash on delivery.

Chinese entrepreneurs who made their mark in Australian business community

By Jason Clout

Richard Yuan A man who was almost lost to Australia on a couple of occasions has become a leading figure in introducing business people to this country.

Richard Yuan from migration specialist ABC World is one of the entrepreneurs expanding commercial links with China.

the license to become a registered migration agent myself.’’

Yuan went into business with only about $20,000 in the year 2000, so he needed to make his money work effectively from the outset. Initially he opted for a non-CBD premise to keep the rent lower although ABC now owns a whole floor on Sydney’s Pitt St.

But for Yuan the path has not been easy. He initially started his business in response to the difficulties he faced getting his own visa.

His education at Beijing 2nd Foreign Language Institute -which equipped him with translation skills good enough to get him work in TV production - meant he was able to converse with DIAC and potential migration applicants easily.

“ There were problems with my visa in part due to the complicated application process. But I decided to undertake

ABC World has helped more than 1000 families to come to Australia, many of them in business.

14

Vol 5 Issue 3

“ We are proud of our two platforms, our migration platform and our business platform. They co-existed interdependently, the migration platform is currently doing better, but we believe the business platform will catch up...’’

We are very thorough.

Applications are prepared at different levels, but I personally go through every single business migration case before they are submitted to the department ’’

Richard likes some aspects of the federal government’s new visa program for the wealthy, such as the fact there is no age limit, nor an English language requirement. “ But I wish they had made more necessary business investment arrangements for innovative companies.

That’’s what Australia needs more of.’’

Zheng sees rising living standards as a big opportunity for Australian business.

“China’s middle class is rising and it’s wealth management industry is still in its infancy,’’ says Zheng.

If we apply the Australian standard to the Chinese environment, we will miss out on a lot of quality applicants who are keen to invest in Australia.’’

‘’Australia has a lot to offer in this area as we have world class wealth management expertise that can speed China’s development.’’

Closer cooperation with China means Australia would be better placed to make better use of the vast land mass and natural resources, he says.

Bill Zheng founder of Investors Direct Financial Group Bill Zheng and his wife Vivien Lin left their Big Four accounting jobs to start Investors Direct Financial Group. Initially a mortgage broking firm, it has grown to include property advisory, financial planning and funds management.

IDFG manages about $1.5 billion a year in property investment and development projects in Australia and China. Founded in Melbourne, it now has offices in Sydney, Brisbane and Beijing.

Jing Chen founder & CEO of Zhuoyue Group Jing Chen has built a number of major businesses through his Zhouyue Group.

Its services range from tourism and financial services to education and property development.

He also founded Knight Pharmaceuticals, which producers health foods, sports nutrition and skincare.

“Over 10 years, Zhouyue Group has accumulated a large network of resources and excellent reputation for providing professional services to Australian and Chinese entrepreneurs.’’ says Jing.

But there are aspects of the AustralianChinese commercial relationship which need to be understood by both sides. Zheng notes that it can be hard for Chinese entrepreneurs to show a clean trial of tax returns because of its business and regulations.

Zheng would also like to see Australia allow Chinese to stay in this country after they complete their degrees, regardless of the major they have taken. Even if they need to pay a small sum to the government, that would raise Australia’s profile as a student destination, he says.

His advice for Australian SMEs looking to establish a base in China is to think very closely about hiring a Chinese local to run your business. As the way of doing business can be very different, it can help to have someone with in-depth knowledge of commercial conditions.

Because we understand management in both countries, we have been able to lead some entrepreneurs to invest successfully in Australia.’’

The company also started investment services companies in mainland China and Hong Kong, providing a range of services for those looking to immigrate, study or invest in Australia. Real estate is one area where the company continues to expand.

Switching on your cultural radar A

dvice on doing business with China is all around. Some of it is good, some bad, and some absolutely crucial to your business success. Even the best advice can’t, and shouldn’t, replace developing your own cross-cultural radar.

“I learned twenty do’s and don’ts before going to China – how to hand over the business card and what gifts to give. Of course, these only covered a fraction of situations I experienced.

Many of them still mystify me”, said one Australian business owner at the recent Australia-China Business Week in Shanghai.

It’s tempting to memorise protocol tips.

Mastering the respectful two-handed business card exchange is a fine start, but how do we go from there to build credibility, trust and strong business relationships?

By understanding the cultural “why” behind the behaviours we meet.

Culture tends to blindside us; we take our values for granted, often thinking of them “common sense”. The trick is knowing what values and practices are common and shared, and which ones are not.

As many China experienced business people and scholars point out, China

is modernising, not Westernising.

Chinese culture still values status, relationships and interdependence.

Face and Guangxi often quoted as key, yet seldom fully understood.

Face is the equivalent to ones status in society. It includes but goes beyond notions of reputation, extending to dignity and honour in the eyes of others. What Western cultures may dismiss as an insignificant mistake, such as being asked a question in a meeting and not knowing the answer, can cause a significant loss of face – especially when this happens in front of others. Giving face can involve praising others publicly, treating them to an expensive meal and giving a valuable gift. Gestures count, grand and small.

friendships, it is a web of obligations, including favours for family members.

Third party introductions play a key role in establishing those relationships so critical to doing business. Guanxi is the key to getting anything done in China – just keep in mind that it is reciprocal.

Switching on our cultural radar means asking “What are the cultural differences that matter?”. The key lies in understanding cultural values and where they came from. Then we can better navigate interactions, make sense of the advice of others and use those protocol tips effectively.

Guangxi refers to one’s pool of power, based on personal connections and relationships. More pragmatic than

China in the Asian Century & how HR is critical to its success

T

his shift to China hasn’t come as a surprise. In 1989 Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke called for more effective economic cooperation across the Pacific Rim region, with the first APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting held in 1993. Today, of the 21 member economies, 13 are within Asia. It’s a poorly kept secret that Hawke and his government were most interested in wooing China as a trade partner. But perhaps the most obvious announcement that China is the ‘new black’ was the October 2012 white paper, titled ‘Australia in the Asian Century’, which contained 348 references to China within its 320 pages. India only appeared 269 times, Japan 218, and Singapore 70.

China’s Century; HR’s Challenge So this is China’s century. That much is clear. For neighbouring economies, their dollar, dong, baht, ringgit, and yen are all likely to benefit.

European countries will realign their exports towards China, and so will

20

Vol 5 Issue 3

the Americas, namely Brazil. Other economies will also benefit as their main exports increase to China. These include Iran, South Korea and Saudi Arabia.

So if ‘energy flows where attention goes’, managing this new attention is likely to become a challenge for HR,

as China evolves from a spoke in the economic wheel to become the hub.

HR, it’s time to prepare for the global shift to The Middle.

More Responsibility Localisation of foreign businesses is no longer a long term strategy, but a short term goal, with many top jobs,

Failure to Culture Shift Steven Wood, Huawei’s former Global VP of Human Resources highlights the negative consequences of this command and control management culture prevalent in China today. Wood says, “In the selection processes for openings [at Huawei], all selections are made behind closed doors, versus an open selection process.” He highlights that this posses a significant problem for the 34,000 non-Chinese employees who are used to an open selection policy. Wood adds that there are similar problems in “succession planning, performance management, benefits, employee relations, leadership development, learning and other areas”. As a consequence of a closed and somewhat antiquated HR system he believes that compared to Western competitors, such as Ericsson or Cisco, Huawei’s turnover is three to five times for foreign employees working internationally. Such poor statistics are bound to hamper China’s rise, since much of China’s future economy will be dependent on expanding globally.

post Global Financial Crisis, going to locals. While this trend has freed up tight budgets it has also increased the weight of responsibility on Chinese leaders’ shoulders and understandably this has challenged the relatively green local leaders. In a 2011 Korn/ Ferry Leadership and Thinking Style assessment it was found that most Chinese C-suite leaders were rated very low for Social Style and low for Participative Style – two leadership qualities Korn/Ferry believes are important for matured global leaders.

Referring to the research, Jack Lim, Managing Director of Korn/Ferry’s Leadership & Talent Consulting division in China, said that Chinese are competent in terms of task and intellect, but are “weaker with communication and social leadership qualities in comparison to Western counterparts.” As a consequence, Lim believes that on the job training and coaching will become more important to bridge the gaps.

Need for stronger leaders Wood’s personal experience is reflected by research carried out by Great Place to Work® in their ‘2012 Best Companies to Work for’ report. Thirty-two companies based in Beijing, Chengdu Guangzhou, Shanghai, Dalian, Hong Kong and Taipei, and 60,000 employees were survey to generate the Greater China data. Compared to the workplaces in the rest of Asia, Latin America, Europe and North America, the Greater China employees rated their workplaces poorest in relation to credibility, respect, and fairness. North American leaders were consistently on top across all three categories, even achieving 13 percentage points higher than Greater China, in terms of ‘respect’.

Solution? Start with four steps Politics aside, there are steps that HR can take to improve the ability and consequent brand of China’s corporate leaders. Step one is acknowledging that the existing management culture can be improved. The term ‘Best Practice’ is not limited to the Western vocabulary.

The act of continuous improved, known as Kaizen, was coined by the Japanese, and Singapore and Hong Kong rank number one and two in terms of ease of doing business, according to the World Bank. So there’s no reason why China can’t become a world leader, with respect to business best practice. But it starts with self awareness.

This may be easier said than done. In a culture that is heavily rooted in filial piety, that is the virtue of respecting one’s parents and ancestors, criticism or even benign feedback is often feared, and in some cases punished. And that’s why constructive criticism must be part of a company’s ‘process’, with the easily swayed human bias removed.

The use of Balanced Scorecard or even simple KPIs are step two. Building a culture of RACI, that is Responsibility, Accountability, Consult and Inform, is step three. And step four is removing proactive behaviour and risk taking from the list of taboos, and embedding delegation practices into best practice management practices through active rewards and encouragement. And that’s just the beginning.

Introduction to Property Development Fund in Australia

By Bill Zheng & Andrew Bruce, Investors Direct Investment Management

M

ost people know that you can become wealthy very quickly if you are a successful property developer. However, the risk property developers take to achieve their profit is not for the faint hearted, not to mention the expertise and mental strength it requires for consistent success.

For people that want to participate in development profits without being a developer, their next obvious option is to invest directly into property development projects managed by developers that they hope can deliver a good return with acceptable risk. But in reality, this option is not ideal for most property investors either.

Let’s say you have $5m that you want to invest in property development directly, you will run into the following problems: If your focus is to find the right developer to invest your $5m - no developer can always deliver winning projects every time, so you are bound to lose your money from at least one failed project regardless of how many winners this developer may have delivered for you before.

If your focus is to find the right project to invest your $5m - even if the project

ticks all the boxes before it starts, things can still turn bad due to unforeseen problems. So regardless of how many good projects you have invested, all you need is one good project turning bad to wipe out most of your investment.

A good solution should have at least the following ingredients: Someone with extensive property development experience to advise you on how to select the right developer and the right project while minimizing the development risk, and this advisor’s interest must be aligned with yours so that you know the advice is on your side.

Your money should be divided into multiple projects, and hopefully less than 10% of your money, i.e. less than $500k out of your $5m will be invested into any single project, or your $5m will be invested into at least 10 projects with other investors alongside you to diversify your risk. This can reduce the risk of losing too much of your money due to one failed project.

Typically a property development fund will be run by investment managers with extensive property development experience, and many investors pool their money together into the fund to invest into multiple projects. Further, a fund will set a limit on how much money can be invested into a single project at any one time to protect the investors.

For example, a $100m fund with 20 investors putting $5m each may choose to invest no more than 10% of the total fund size into any single development project. This means any single investor of this fund will only represent 5% (1/20) of each project investment, and any investor’s money will be invested into at least 10 different development projects. We know that no fund manager can guarantee all projects to be winners, but most good fund managers can deliver winners the majority of the time to ensure their investors get an overall reasonable return safely.

“Going Out” Why the 12th Five Year Plan is a Game-Changer for Australia

By David Thomas, ACBW Forum Chair

C

hina’s “Going Out” strategy and the new priorities outlined in the current 12th Five year Plan, create unprecedented interest in Australia amongst Chinese SOEs, business leaders, entrepreneurs and high net worth investors. After 30 years of achieving “growth at any cost” (driven by low cost labour, exports and infrastructure development) China is now attempting to transform itself into a modern, innovative and clean economy which is largely propelled by domestic consumption.

The current Five Year plan sets a clear direction for China’s growth in the future which, as we are often reminded, is “modernising” rather than “westernising”.

The 12th Five Year plan identifies three key priorities for China – “Going Out”, “Going West” and “Going Green”, all of which create opportunities for

24

Vol 5 Issue 3

Australia. China’s outbound foreign direct investment exceeded foreign inbound investment for the first time in 2012, growing from US$60.1bn in 2011 to US$77.2bn in 2012. However, despite political and media concerns in Australia, China actually represents less than 5% of our total foreign direct investment, trailing far behind our largest foreign investors, the US, Europe and New Zealand, and most of this investment has been in one sector: mining, commodities and resources.

Nevertheless, many large companies and entrepreneurs in China have an explicit and well-documented ‘Going Out’ strategy and their focus is targeted at new sectors. So what are the drivers for this investment, which sectors and industries are being targeted and how can Australian businesses position themselves for these new opportunities?

Australia is currently the number one destination for Chinese outbound investment based on transactions conducted over the past decade (over A$65 billion invested into our resources sector) and is now well placed to attract investment into our food and agricultural sector, as Chinese investors tackle their next strategic imperative (after energy security) which is to ensure safe, sustainable and secure supplies of nutritious and high quality food for their large population.

Whilst no overarching generalisation can be made with regards to the nature and reasons for investing overseas, there are three main drivers of outbound Chinese investment: Diversification China’s “Going Out” strategy is driven by two main objectives: to reduce their exposure to the US dollar by investing in real corporate assets in other countries, and to make strategic investments into new modern industries.

China has USD$3.31trillion in foreign reserves, approximately 54% of which are in US dollar holdings, notably US Treasury Bonds. China has been steadily reducing its US dollar holdings from 74% in 2006, to 65% in 2010 to the current holding of 54%. Despite this reduction in US dollar holdings, the Chinese Government is still encouraging both state-owned and private companies to diversify their assets and operations overseas and to thereby reduce the country’s exposure to the US dollar.

At the same time, the Chinese Government has directed these companies to make strategic investments overseas, and to invest in industries that enhance and develop China’s own capabilities. Industries which have been identified in the current Five Year Plan as being of particular significance to China include Education, Healthcare, Technology, Clean Energy, Tourism and Financial Services.

Migration Many wealthy Chinese entrepreneurs and high net worth individuals are becoming increasingly interested in migrating to Australia to satisfy a number of long term objectives for themselves and their families – retirement, succession and long term quality of life. At the same time, the Australian Government is encouraging high net worth individuals to apply for permanent residence under the new “Significant Investor Visa” category which is designed to attract investment into Government Bonds, Complying Managed Funds and Australian Private Companies.

With over 150,000 Chinese students now being educated in Australian Universities, and wealthy Chinese entrepreneurs looking to diversify their business interests and developing a succession plan for their children and future generations, Australia is well placed to attract private investment from those looking to adopt a “one foot in, one foot out” policy between China and Australia.

Growth Many Chinese companies have achieved extraordinary growth in their domestic markets over the past decade but are reaching the point where future double-digit growth can only come from expanding overseas. By investing in or acquiring international businesses, Chinese companies are able to gain access to a global

customer base, tap into new sources of product development, innovation and knowledge, and generate new revenue and profits from overseas.

Whilst the longer term plan for Chinese entrepreneurs and companies may be to acquire US firms and list on Wall Street, Australia is an important stepping stone in their journey to building a truly global business. Australia offers access to mature and sophisticated markets, a regulatory regime which demands high standards of corporate governance and transparency, and an opportunity to manage their brand, people and products in a relatively friendly and open environment.

Good examples of Chinese companies already operating successfully in Australia include Huawei, Haier, China Southern, Kingold, HNA Group and the major big 4 banks.

The Australia-China investment story is only just beginning. Australia’s reputation for quality, consistency and reliability, together with our high quality of life and multicultural population, underpins the attractiveness of Australia as a target for outbound Chinese investment.

The Chinese are already investing in Australia and plan to do more. This is a potential game-changer for Australian entrepreneurs, business leaders and politicians!

espite the global drop in foreign direct investment, China’s ODI has been on the rise over the past five years, and China ranked as the fifth largest investor worldwide in 2012.

At the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2013, President Xi Jinping said that China’s accumulative ODI in the next five years will reach $500 billion, while the country set a target of 15 % for ODI growth in 2013.

Shipping your products overseas can be as complex or as easy as you want it to be. Whether you are a leading exporter of fresh produce from Australia that painstakingly picks and supplies the highest quality product to your customers overseas or an importer of retail product into Australia that relies heavily on promotions as part of their sales strategy, you need a reliable transportation provider that has a solid

understanding of what drives your business.

Consider the aim of any supply chain - to deliver the right products, in the right quantities, at the right time, with minimal cost to you.

The idea behind looking at reliability in your transportation solutions is to not just take into account the question of speed but also equipment availability and the quality of equipment provided to ensure you have the ability to consistently plan your inventory movements, safe in the knowledge that you know how much of what cargo will be departing and/or arriving when.

“Reliability is an integral part of our products and services - because it improves your profitability and enables you to better plan your business.

Maersk Line offers the best option of delivering your valuable cargo at the right place, at the right time and in the

right condition. This reduces situations in which you need to arrange urgent expensive transportation, alternative sourcing or accept lost production/ sales opportunities.” says Derek Singline, the Trade and Marketing Manager at Maersk Line.

Premium quality, a cold hard fact Maersk Line is leading the way in reefer services by understanding the unique requirements of reefer shipments, and offering a wide range of cooling methods that is focused around the concept of cargo care.

Reefer services such as Cold Treatment, Controlled Atmosphere and Superfreezers capable of maintaining temperatures of – 60 degrees have allowed a wide variety of cargo to be transported all over the globe in peak condition while maintaining its shelf life.

Australian visa – a significant investment

By EY

A

lmost exactly a year ago, on 29 August 2012, the then Minister for Immigration, Chris Bowen stated that the new significant investor visa was intended to “… provide a boost to the local economy and to compete effectively for high net worth individuals seeking investment immigration on an international scale” With only a handful of visa grants in the 10 months since launch the rush for foreign investment has now given way to an orderly and measured process that rewards diligent, and patient stakeholders.

The source of an applicant’s funds and the mode of transfer for the $A5 million to Australia are the subject of particular scrutiny by Australian immigration authorities.

Notwithstanding processing delays during the ‘bedding down’ phase of the program, there is no doubt that the significant investor visa program remains genuinely attractive to foreign investors looking for investment opportunities in Australia with the added bonus of a migration outcome.

Widely publicised concessions for age, language, skills and the relaxed residence requirements on the fouryear path to permanent residence is appealing to prospective applicant investors.

However, a failure to understand the ongoing requirements of permanent residence, or criteria for conferral of Australian citizenship (if that is the ultimate objective) carries the potential to frustrate applicants’ expectations.

With so much at stake for investor migrants, their families, and the Australian beneficiaries of the program it is imperative that the care taken in the investment of funds be replicated for the visa application process.

Experienced, registered migration advisors, preferably with international reach are best placed to provide independent advice that can be relied upon with confidence. Add to that the importance of multifaceted advice on transactions, tax and forward migration planning to ensure expectations are met, and goals achieved long after the initial investment has been made.

Wayne Parcell PSM is a registered migration agent (9790656) and the Global Immigration Partner supporting significant investor visa applications through the Sydney offices of global professional services firm, EY.

‘’With our location in McKillop Street, I thought when we began in November 2007 that lunch would be our busiest time. ‘’But it just goes to show that whatever your plans are for a restaurant, in the end it will dictated by what customers want’.’

For Red Sprice Road, that customer urging for dinner has translated to a large evening trade. Whereas the restaurant once had five chefs, it now boasts 13.Red Spice Road QV in the major Melbourne shopping complex. has also started.

The restaurant has carved a niche in the ultra-competitive Melbourne dining industry through offering fresh south east Asian style meals with a twist, But John McLeay, part of the team behind Red Spice Road,says when it opened he expected it to be mainly a lunch-time haunt for the corporate crowd .

‘’Menus are similar although there are some differences between the restaurants. But the aim at both is for a fun experience and to offer good value,’’ he says.

One dish always available is the pork belly with apple slaw, chilli caramel and black vinegar. ‘’We probably serve between 1500 and 2000 of those pork dishes a week.

When people find out where I work, they often say they have had the pork belly.’’.

‘I think it goes very well with our kingfish salad, which is a very light dish and another we never take off the menu.’’

McLeay travels three or four times a year to Asia and there is an annual trip with some of his chefs. The aim is to sample as many of the vast array of flavours from the countries to our north. ‘’Our dishes are mainly Thai-based but for example we are interested in Burmese food at the moment. It’s great we can connect with our region.’’

Success In Melbourne has tempted McLeay to think about setting up interstate or even overseas. ‘’Macau, in one of the casinos, could be an option. The sort of fresh food we do could work very well in that environment.’’

By Dr Chris Vindurampulle Patent & Trade Mark Attorney, Watermark Intellectual Asset Management

T

he Australian Government’s “Australia in The Asian Century” White Paper places Australia-China relations directly into mainstream discussions. Nevertheless, Australian companies continue to approach protecting their IP in China with some trepidation. Given China’s reputation as being a hotbed for counterfeit and pirated products, this is to be expected. However, as IP has become a priority for the Chinese Government, protecting IP rights should become a priority for Australian companies looking to do business in China.

China’s 12th Five Year Plan (2011-2015)

emphasises innovation.

The plan appears to be working. China filed the most patent applications globally last year, leading the world in an indicator that can be used to measure innovation. On average, 1.1 million trade mark applications have been filed in China per year since 2010. This is in stark contrast to the number of trade mark applications filed in Australia during the same period which is about 15 fold less per annum.

The Chinese Government has also seen the importance of strengthening its laws governing the enforcement IP rights. Surprisingly, plaintiff ‘wins’ in IP infringement cases in China

have been, on average, about 80% per annum since 2006. Continued tweaking of IP laws by the Chinese Government, and the introduction of cheaper administrative enforcement regimes, will only strengthen the protection of IP rights in China.

Australian companies can no longer ignore the potential for doing business in China. And while certain obstacles may arise in navigating China’s IP system which may not arise in other jurisdictions, such as Australia, getting the right advice to ensure the protection of IP rights in China will be essential for successful Australia-China business relations.

澳洲500万“高端投资客签证”浅析 ABC环球集团 袁祖文

2

012年11月24日开始，为彰显对 成功商业人士的青睐，澳洲出台 了新的“高端投资客签证”-Significant Investor Visa。 “高端投资客签证”标号是“188”， 项目下的永久签证类别为“888”， 疑是迎合了中国人认为“8”代表财富 的心理。不少网友在澳洲热门微博@ ABC传媒 上留言：当看见188(要发发) 和888(发发发)这两个签证代号，不由 不佩服澳洲移民局的创意，这两个类 别分明就是为中国移民量身定做的! 该签证与普通商业移民签证相比，在 一定程度上讲，是难得的绿色通道： 几乎是只要申请人投资额达500万澳 币并满足其他一些少量附带投资条 件，就能轻松地获得永居，优势无可 比拟：

优势之一：无年龄限制。 一般来讲，该签证的出台，解决了 以前的商业移民签证（如163，164 ，165，132类别签证）的难题：55岁 以上的有实力的企业界人士，社会名 流，影视明星等无法申请。而新的SIV

签证，除了对有实力的企业老总大开 方便之门，还惠及影视明星及其他社 会名流：只需收入可观，税务程序正 常，办理起来相对方便。有称职的投 资顾问配合，则可以满足时间极少的 人群的特有需求。而传统的商业移民 要求主申请人年龄在55岁以下才有机 会获政府担保。

优势之二：无商业背景的要求. 也就是说，申请人无须企业管理，商 业投资经验，均可申请该类签证。因 此，高端投资签证不仅是企业高管， 上市公司老总的特权，同时，还为各 类社会成功人士，如作家，影视明星 等社会名流提供了同等机会。

优势之三：无需满足英文考试 要求。 优势之四：移民监较短。 不需要4年住满2年，而是4年只需累 计住够160天，平均每年住够40天就 可以。对于某些特定高端群体，或许 该条件仍然很难满足。可喜的是，该

签证不同于以往的163签证没有续签 条款，188签证，可要求续签，共有 机会续签2次，每次2年，即持有188 临时签证最长可达8年。如果一共持有 188临时签证6年的话，只需住满240 天；8年呢？也只需住满320天即可。 毋须讳言，该签证自从它诞生以来， 就一直充满了争议: 1）投资资金巨 大，而保障甚少，即使投资在洲政府 债券，风险仍然较高。2）虽然没有强 调海外资产来源证明，但问题多多。3 ）高端投资客最大来源国中国每年每 人仅仅允许汇往海外5万美金，个人按 照正常渠道汇款，需要100年；夫妻 呢，也需要50年，夫妻加孩子，也需 要33年以上。因此，可以预见的是， 大量资金将取旁门左道，抵达澳洲。 申请人所面临的中国政策风险，及澳 洲汇率风险等都较大。4）投资500万 澳元在澳洲银行，项目或者金融机构 中，投资满4年后才有可能申请永居。 对于有实力，没时间的朋友仍然没有 从根本上解决问题。5）对于有实力， 没有时间的许多朋友，或许存在其他 更优的方式，更直接移民澳洲？ 该签证通过提供移民意向书EOI（Expression of Interest）及获得洲政府

担保，在香港提供移民局申请，在188 高端投资客签证批出之前，须将500万 澳币投入澳洲相关的基础建设项目， 基金，政府债券，现金存款，私有公 司等澳洲证券投资发展局认可的合资 格的投资中，风险自担。值得一提的 是：申请人还必须向澳洲联邦政府承 诺，如果投资亏损，自愿放弃对澳洲 联邦政府采取法律行为索赔的权力。 另外需要指出的是，一旦获得高端投 资客签证，申请人必须居住在提供担 保的洲，而不能居住在其他洲。否 则，在满足转绿卡的条件后申请888永 久居留签证可能会遇到麻烦。 高端投资客签证的投资额问题：澳洲 移民局规定，这类投资客既要满足澳 洲移民条例要求，还要满足各地方政 府的“土政策”要求-需要获得拟居住 洲的洲政府担保。目前，大多数洲政 府都愿意担保高端投资客。悉尼所在 新南威尔士洲看中的也是“高端投资 客”的资金，它特别规定：申请人在 500万澳元投资额中，至少要有150万 元 （30%）投资在州政府的指定债券 （目前新州政府指定了“WARATAH” 债券）。那么，该政府债券究竟是什 么性质的呢？在此，我们大致介绍一 下该投资产品。 新州政府要求投资的WARATAH BONDS 是一个由州政府全额担保的 债券产品，风险相对较低，但收益也 低。这个债券的资金是用来投入到新 州的基础设施建设中，投资者通过这 个债券的投资将支持新南威尔士州的 经济发展。债券投资期为4年，年回报

率为2.92%（根据投资当时利息调整） ，每半年支付一次利息。这个投资产 品规定：没有到期前（在投资移民188 签证的4年期间）不得部分或全部出售 或转让这些投资。 在最近针对高端投资客的移民咨询 中，不少高端投资客直接问：“资金 安全对我来说是第一位，我能否只投 资新洲政府债券？”虽然回答是肯定 的，但是，笔者以为，以如此低利 率，几乎很难抵抗通涨，其实风险已 经很大。如果许多高端投资客都以这 样的心态来投资，集中投资新洲政府 债券，风险还会这么小吗？且不论澳 洲政坛风云变幻，如果许多资金都投 入到项目巨大，见效甚慢的基础建设 项目，一旦在某一特定时间洲政府需 要大量支付到期的债券的时候，风险 会怎样？因此，笔者建议，澳洲各类 理财项目繁多，能够满足移民条件， 又可能获得丰厚利益的理财，基金产 品不少。

据笔者调查，目前市场上各类理财， 投资产品繁多。符合高端投资客签证 要求的产品也不少。有些机构声称可 以通过基金购买自己心仪的商业地 产，自住房产来办理移民；有些机构 甚至在提供该类服务的时候，还特别 提供国内资产置换，融资的服务，为 高端投资客办理投资移民提供大量的 机会和难得的条件。拟赴澳洲申请高 端投资客签证的朋友应该做足功课， 寻求大型正规投资机构的咨询服务， 或者挑选过去一直表现良好的基金， 或者挑选有特色的心仪理财产品：一 定要寻求可信赖的大型机构的理财服 务。移民专家建议高端投资客寻求 澳洲专业持牌的理财师（Licensed financial planner）的帮助，以便可 以找到可靠的，可以增殖的安全优质 项目。

澳大利亚-中国商务周助力 两国企业高效沟通

——澳大利亚商务论坛中国营运主管李云舟Doris女士谈澳中商务周

澳

中经贸关系往来日益密切， 澳洲中小企业加强国际合作 与交流，开拓亚太地区尤其 是中国市场的意向快速增强。作为促 进澳中之间商务关系的独立非政府组 织，澳大利亚商务论坛(ABF)自成立 以来一直致力于搭建澳中企业沟通桥 梁，通过多种形式帮助两国企业家相 互联通，创造共赢机遇。组织于2008 年创立大型年度商务活动：澳大利亚中国商务周，发展至今以成为两国企 业互相寻求商机的成熟平台。

ABF杂志：可以详细介绍一下 澳大利亚-中国商务周活动吗？ Doris：我们在2008年创立年度澳

中商务周活动，今年已经是第六届。 商务周活动主要是针对在中国市场寻 找商机的澳洲企业，以及对澳洲市场 感兴趣的中国企业与投资人，为他们 搭建一个有效的交流平台。每年的澳 中商务周都会为两国的企业提供对 方市场的深度解析，讲解最新的法规 政策、商业版图和经济发展趋势。并 且通过早餐会、论坛、商务午宴、社 交酒会和商业配对等不同的形式，让 与会者有机会接触他们感兴趣的分销 商、合作伙伴、投资者，挖掘潜在的 商机。

Vol 5 Issue 3

澳中商务周最早在墨尔本创立，去年 第一次在悉尼举办，获得了很大的成 功。今年我们做了更大胆的尝试，第 一次在中国举办澳中商务周的活动，4 月份时我们组织60多名澳洲企业代 表前往上海和杭州进行会务考察，并 和全国工商委员会合作邀请了许多重 量级的中方嘉宾和投资人到场与澳洲 代表互动。据我所知，这次上海的活 动已经促成了多笔合作，有一些参加 活动的中方企业目前正在墨尔本进行 回访。而6月19日在墨尔本落幕的澳 中商务周活动吸引了850多名代表参 会，其中包括近两百名华人企业家与 投资者，也是成果斐然。今年的最后 一场活动在8月28日重回悉尼。

我们很高兴今年的活动吸引了一批优 秀赞助商、合作伙伴与支持单位，企 业方面包括澳大利亚国民银行、Fairfax媒体、南方航空、ABC环球集团、 鋆隆宝琳金融房地产集团、香格里拉 酒店集团等，为我们带来更多高质量 的参会代表。我们尤其欣喜地看到越 来越多澳洲本地华人企业的加入，利 用他们在澳洲华人社区的影响力，吸 引更多华人企业家与投资者参与到澳 中商务周活动中，与澳洲企业进行交 流互动。另外，澳大利亚中小型企业 协会、澳大利亚特许经营委员会、澳 大利亚生物科技协会、澳大利亚公共 会计师协会等各行业协会也各自利用 其行业知识与关系网络为今年的澳中 商务周活动提供支持。

ABF杂志：澳中商务周活动能 为中国企业家们带来哪些益 处？ Doris：澳中商务周每年都特别为

中国企业举办以普通话演讲的中文论 坛。澳洲一直是中国企业家投资和移 民的一个首选，但是常常会由于语言 和文化的障碍，以及对本土商业投资 环境不了解，不知道如何来选择投资 项目。我们今年的中文投资论坛会邀 请政府的代表和行业专家为中国企业 家介绍澳洲的商业与投资环境。在6月 的墨尔本论坛中，中国驻墨尔本总领 馆商务参赞刘峪女士、Monash大学经 济系教授史鹤凌博士、维多利亚投资 局国际投资经理杨志宁先生等众多专 家，为与会的华人代表介绍了澳中两 国最新的经济走向与商业政策，分析 澳洲本地最具潜力的投资行业。中文 论坛中还展示了绿色生态城、养老产 业投资、农场投资、婴儿奶粉分销等 一系列高质量的投资项目，以此帮助 中国企业家了解澳洲的商业蓝图，找 到适合他们的投资项目。 8月28日的悉尼活动中，新州州长 Barry O’Farrell与中国驻悉尼总领 事李华新先生代表双方政府在午宴中 探讨新州与中国的最新商贸机遇。另 外，中国驻悉尼商务参赞彭刚先生、

澳大利亚贸易委员会高级行业专员唐 路华女士等演讲人与专家在中文论 坛上讲解“在澳经商需了解的法律 法规”、“188/888重大投资签证最 新资讯”、“中国企业在澳运营案 例——澳洲经商的机遇与挑战”等一 系列中国企业家最为关注的话题。悉 尼活动还首次增加投资项目宣讲会， 针对中国投资者的需求，精选多个不 同行业的商业项目，进行宣讲与展 示。

ABF杂志：除了澳中商务周之 外，澳大利亚商务论坛还有一 系列其他促进澳中商务的举 措，这些举措在澳中两国的企 业中反响如何？

Doris：早期我们做一些与中国相关 的项目时，意识到中国重要性的企业 还相对较少。现在则有越来越多澳洲 企业认识到中国市场的大把机遇，开 始希望建立与中国市场的联系。就拿 澳中商务周活动为例，最初的时候， 澳洲企业对中国市场尤其是巨大文化 背景的差异性了解还不深刻，那时我 们主要着重于进行市场教育。如今， 澳洲企业逐渐对中国有了基本的了 解，我们的重心就开始转移到商业社 交与商业配对上，希望通过我们建立

的各个平台，让澳中两国的企业家和 投资人能够有效地交流，找到合适的 商业伙伴。 我们的其他一些活动与服务，包括季 度性举办的China Lunch Club高级经 理人午宴、双语的ABF商业杂志、以 及为澳中两国入出境商务代表团安排 商务交流等举措，都获得了十分积极 的反响。各方的支持对我们也是极大 的鼓励，让我们不断创新，促进两国 的商贸往来。

ABF杂志：明年的澳中商务周 将会怎样安排？ Doris：我们今年在上海尝试的第

一次中国活动效果非常好，我们也相 信“澳中商务周”这个概念只有在澳 洲和中国两地共同举办才算是完整。 我们计划以后每年都会在中国的主要 商业城市举办至少一场活动。明年澳 中商务周的安排为：3月墨尔本，6月 广州，8月悉尼，10月上海。

澳洲商务论坛专访 ABC环球团总裁 袁祖文 ABF：我们知道当年您是湖南 常德市第一个考进北京第二外 国语学院的高才生，是中国最 优秀的同声传译员之一。为什 么会在34岁时想到白手起家做 企业？起步时遇到的困难？ 袁祖文：感谢北二外给了我很好的机 会，在我34岁的时候，以访问学者 的身份派我到堪培拉学术交流，并且 因为北二外的学历资格，我在完成学 习后直接就能申请澳洲三级翻译资格

认证。也正是因为这个认证的偶然机 会，我拿到一份在Global Television Studio的同声传译工作机会。恰逢澳 大利亚翻译协会在组织一场专业同传 讲座，一名韩国同传因故无法如期抵 达会场，NAATI认证负责人看到我的 简历，便推荐我替补救场，第二天做 了一篇题为“中国同传的渊源、现状 和未来发展”的演讲。很巧，当时贵 宾席的一位听众成了我在澳的第一位 伯乐，给了我一份Global Television Studio的面试机会，于是我拿到了这 份时薪$83澳元的兼职工作。

“白手起家做企业”——其实当时 话并没有那么壮志凌云，我做移民的 初衷不过是因为自己的Case被拒罢 了。1998年，我所工作的旅行社为 我申请雇主担保，结果雇主资格获批 了，我的签证却被拒。于是我悉心钻 研，分析琢磨相关移民政策，终于成 功的把自己做成了第一位成功客户， 之后便决心要在澳洲移民行业中打造 一家踏实、靠谱、诚信的新公司。

ABF：从最初的旅游业到后来 的移民、留学、房地产、贸易 等等业务， ABC环球集团的业 务已经遍及全球各地。相比较 各地，您又是如何评价澳洲的 创业投资环境的？ 袁祖文：澳洲的创业环境是非常健康 的。这里的相关法律法规健全而公 正，竞争机制凸显公平。税务体系也 很透明合理。在澳洲，只要大家循规 蹈矩、合法合理经商，就不会遇到意 外的麻烦。不足之处是，澳洲的官僚 机构庞大，不少政府机构办事效率较

贸商务多年来的合作，对未来 中澳经济文化交流发展有何期 望？ 袁祖文：这些年，澳中两国经贸关系 日益紧密。正如刘峪参赞在6月的墨尔 本“澳中商务周”午餐会上所言，“ 中国已经成为澳大利亚最大贸易伙伴 和最大的出口市场，越来越多的中国 公司来澳投资，中澳双方应携手合 作，加强沟通，为对方创造公正、非 歧视的投资环境。”澳方应当看得更 宽更远，切实把中国当做商业合作伙 伴，而非威胁亚太安全的竞争对手。 澳洲媒体也应当更加务实，而不是妖 魔化中国投资。澳洲政策、舆论各方 需要认清，澳洲不能仅仅满足于地区 间的吸引力而失去了全球的竞争力。 期望看到澳洲继续鼓励中小企业的发 展，鼓励创业投资；同时，希望看到 更多的大型企业、大品牌在澳洲生根 并发展壮大。

消除财经新闻盲点 搭建澳中投资桥梁 ——专访ACB News《澳华财经在线》 新闻部主管Lisa Leo

澳

中两国间经贸、投资往来活 动日益加强，投资者对两国 间财经资讯、投资政策和行 业投资动向等信息需求迅猛增加。ABF 杂志就两国投资人关心的澳中投资趋 势和投资人在财经信息方面的需求采 访了ACB News《澳华财经在线》新闻 部主管Lisa Leo 。以下为采访节选： ABF 杂志：ACB News上线以来一直 专注于财经资讯的提供，可否简单介 绍下网站定位和栏目设置？ ACB News：作为澳洲财经门户网站， 我们有着清晰的内容定位，即致力于 动态适时提供澳中两国间最新财经资 讯、行业动态、澳洲证券市场、上市 公司资讯和专业的财经分析评论，最 大程度上消除地理位置差异带来的澳 中两国间财经资讯传播不对称性和财 经新闻盲点，为投资人投资决策提供 资讯支持。 基于用户对财经信息的需求，目前开 设有7大频道，分别是《财经要闻》 、 《上市公司》、《市场观察》、《澳 洲上市》、《澳股行情》、《澳中连 线》、《行业聚焦》。 上述频道很好 覆盖了投资人对澳中两国间最新财经 资讯的需求。 ABF 杂志：您刚才提到“盲点”这个

词，澳中投资人双向信息不对称主要 体现在哪些地方？ ACB News：澳中企业之间有着深 厚、强劲的贸易和投资关系。中国有 许多投资人看好澳洲发达的金融投资 环境、丰富的资源基础，希望在这里 找寻合适的投资机遇；澳洲本地华人 投资人也希望得到更多一手中文财经 资讯以辅助投资决策，填补这些信息 空白正是我们设立ACB News财经资 讯平台的出发点。 以几个特色频道为例：读者可在《财 经要闻》频道获取澳洲宏观经济及各 行业产业最新讯息；在《市场观察》 栏目内了解到澳洲股市、澳元的最新 动态报道及深度分析；有意上市的中 国企业可通过《澳洲上市》频道了解 澳交所上市相关资讯，获得一站式信 息服务等。 ABF 杂志：在您看来，目前澳中两国 未来的投资合作前景如何？ ACB News：澳中之间的投资趋势是我 们关注的一大重点。中国是澳大利亚 最大贸易伙伴。随着中国城镇化趋势 不断加强、能源使用向洁净能源缓慢 转变，澳洲可向中国提供这一过程中 亟需的大量高品质自然资源，包括铁 矿石、铜矿、煤炭、天然气等。与此

同时，澳大利亚向中国供应安全、高 品质食品及农产品（乳制品、肉类、 谷物、葡萄酒、棉花、羊毛等）机遇 也在快速增加。 各方面综合来看，澳大利亚和中国具 有广阔的投资合作前景，资源产业的 互补，有利的贸易条件和深厚的合作 传统都是两国间投资增长的不竭动 力。 ABF 杂志：一度支撑澳洲经济快速发 展的矿业投资热潮正在消退，中国对 澳大利亚的投资模式是否也在起着相 应的变化？ ACB News：矿业投资热潮登顶已基 本成为共识，澳洲政府正在努力带领 澳洲经济实现向非矿经济发展的再平 衡。 当前中国对澳投资重点分布在矿业资 源及能源业，这一特点与中国国内对 建筑及能源类商品需求持续增长两相 呼应。有迹象表明中国企业投资方向 呈现出由资源业向能源业悄然转移的 趋势，液化天然气（LNG）部门开始 成为中国投资新宠。 值得注意的是，澳洲农业领域已成为 中国对澳投资的新热点，也是澳华财 经在线未来一段时间内关注的方向之 一。
