Asian markets

PwC speaks your language. Our team helps Asian businesses launch in New Zealand, and Kiwis enter fast-growing Asian regions – including China, India and Singapore.

Bridging the Asia-Pacific divide

Asia has seen an economic transformation of unprecedented speed and scale. It has lifted millions of people out of poverty, reshaped the regional and global economy, and improved the power and influence of countries across the region.

New Zealand is in a very fortunate position. Due to strong historical links to Europe and close cultural ties to the USA, New Zealand has been a "first world" economy throughout the 20th Century. Moving through the 21st Century, the global economic centre of gravity is moving to Asia, and New Zealand is again fortunate that we have the opportunity to benefit from the Asian Century.

All this means there are fantastic opportunities for both Asian and New Zealand parties when working together. As China continues to pull ahead as the largest economy by GDP (PPP), India is heading towards a tech-driven future, while Indonesia, Singapore and other Asian nations make their own unique mark. The time to be involved in this exciting new era is now.
