HONG KONG - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Hong Kong has a free market economy, highly dependent on international trade and finance - the value of goods and services trade, including the sizable share of re-exports, is about four times GDP. Hong Kong levies excise duties on only four commodities, namely: hard alcohol, tobacco, hydrocarbon oil, and methyl alcohol. There are no quotas or dumping laws. Hong Kong's open economy left it exposed to the global economic slowdown that began in 2008. Although increasing integration with China, through trade, tourism, and financial links, helped it to make an initial recovery more quickly than many observers anticipated, it again faces a possible slowdown as exports to the Euro zone and US slump. The Hong Kong government is promoting the Special Administrative Region (SAR) as the site for Chinese renminbi (RMB) internationalization. Hong Kong residents are allowed to establish RMB-denominated savings accounts; RMB-denominated corporate and Chinese government bonds have been issued in Hong Kong; and RMB trade settlement is allowed. The territory far exceeded the RMB conversion quota set by Beijing for trade settlements in 2010 due to the growth of earnings from exports to the mainland. RMB deposits grew to roughly 9.1% of total system deposits in Hong Kong by the end of 2012, an increase of 59% from the previous year. The government is pursuing efforts to introduce additional use of RMB in Hong Kong financial markets and is seeking to expand the RMB quota. The mainland has long been Hong Kong's largest trading partner, accounting for about half of Hong Kong's exports by value. Hong Kong's natural resources are limited, and food and raw materials must be imported. As a result of China's easing of travel restrictions, the number of mainland tourists to the territory has surged from 4.5 million in 2001 to 34.9 million in 2012, outnumbering visitors from all other countries combined. Hong Kong has also established itself as the premier stock market for Chinese firms seeking to list abroad. In 2012 mainland Chinese companies constituted about 46.6% of the firms listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and accounted for about 57.4% of the Exchange's market capitalization. During the past decade, as Hong Kong's manufacturing industry moved to the mainland, its service industry has grown rapidly. Growth slowed to 5% in 2011, and less than 2% in 2012. Credit expansion and tight housing supply conditions caused Hong Kong property prices to rise rapidly and inflation to rise 4.1% in 2012. Lower and middle income segments of the population are increasingly unable to afford adequate housing. Hong Kong continues to link its currency closely to the US dollar, maintaining an arrangement established in 1983.

Goodwill Far East Co. is a partnership jointly owned by Mr. Pradip Hiralal Sachanandani and Mr. Laju Kishinchand Mirpuri, both of whom are Indian.  They are Hong Kong ID Card holders and have got the right to reside in Hong Kong permanently.

The subject’s business is chiefly handled by Sachanandani who can be reached at his mobile phone number 852-9809 0631.

The subject’s registered address is in a private building located at Room F, 12/F., Block 6, Lily Mansions, Whampoa Garden, 8 Tak Fung Street, Kowloon, Hong Kong.  This is the residence of Sachanandani who moved to this address in April 2011.  The residential building is not trespassed by outsiders.  However, its operating office is located at Room 804-805, 8/F., Peninsula Centre, Peninsula Centre, 67 Mody Road, Tsimshatsui East, Kowloon, Hong Kong.  We also can reach Sachanandani at your given Hong Kong phone number 852-2366 4791.

According to Sachanandani, the subject is trading in sundry items.

The subject shares the same operating office in Peninsula Centre, 67 Mody Road, Tsimshatsui East, Kowloon, Hong Kong with Sunshine (Far East) Ltd. [Sunshine] which is a private limited company jointly owned by Mr. Laxman Shabhunath Vaswani, holding 75.0%; Mr. Manju Laxman Vaswani, holding 12.5%; and Mr. Vaswani Parshotam Shambhunath, also 12.5%.  The last shareholder is residing in Jakarta, Indonesia.  All the shareholders are Indian.

The subject is trading in the same commodities as Sunshine, more or less.

Sunshine is trading in textiles, garments, wax, batteries, household electric appliances, luggage, sundry items, etc.  Commodities are sourced from India, China, other Asian countries, Europe.  Prime markets are Indonesia, Sri Lanka, the Middle East, Africa, etc.  Business is rather active, so does the subject.

Sunshine has got an affiliated company Vinay Holdings Ltd. located at the same operating address.  However, Vinay Holdings Ltd. is not a Hong Kong‑registered company.

Currently, the subject’s business is chiefly handled by Sachanandani himself.  He is also the contact person of the subject.  History in Hong Kong is over thirteen years.

On the whole, consider the subject good for normal business engagements in moderate credit amounts.
