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.

GENERAL

 

Tempe Trading Asia Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tempe Trading S.A. [Tempe], a Switzerland-based firm.  The subject is a key member of the Inditex Group which originated from the name of Zara in Spain in 1963.

Tempe is the company that designs, produces and distributes footwear and accessories for all the brands of the Inditex Group: Zara, Pull & Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, Zara Home y Uterqüe.

Tempe has its headquarters in Elche, a main place of footwear production in Spain.  It also has subsidiaries in Mexico, Brazil, China, India, Vietnam, etc.  Tempe distributes more than 40 million pairs of shoes per year to the shops of the Group.

The Inditex Group is made up of almost a hundred companies engaged in activities relating to textile design, production and distribution.  It is one of the world’s largest fashion Groups.

For the Inditex Group, the year 2012 has been marked by strong growth as well as by strong investment and job creation.  Sales increased by 16% over the previous year, reaching €15,946 million, while net profit rose 22% in relation to 2011 and increased to €2,367 million.  The strict control of operating expenses has allowed the EBITDA to increase by 20%, to €3,913 million.

During 2012 the total number of staff in the Inditex Group reached the figure of 120,314 employees, with 10,802 jobs created in the year.  The growth in employment affected all the geographical areas in which the group operates, especially in the number of permanent employees: 82% of the staff work under an indefinite contract.  The global vocation of the company is reflected in the fact that its employees are of over 130 nationalities and 45 working languages.  It is a young workforce (31 years old on average), in which women represent 78.7% of the total.

At the close of 2012, Inditex had 6,009 stores in its eight sales formats in 86 markets in five continents.  In that period, 482 stores were opened in 64 different markets, five of them new: Armenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Ecuador,

Georgia and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.

The subject is the buying office of the Inditex Group in Asia Pacific.  Exported to Europe, Japan and Latin America, the subject’s garments are acquired in Hong Kong, imported from China, and the other Asian countries.  Business has been active.

Having a number of associated companies located at the same address in Hong Kong, the subject is fully supported by the Inditex Group.

On the whole, consider the subject good for normal business engagements.
