HONGKONG - 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.

The subject is trading in all kinds of pharmaceuticals especially those manufactured in China.  It is also responsible for importing raw materials from abroad for its associated factories in China.  Pharmaceuticals sourced from China suppliers are exported to Japan, the other Asian countries, Europe, North America, etc.  Business is normal.

CNSC was established in 1983 with the approval of the State Council of China.  Once subordinated to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation (re-named as the Ministry of Commerce, the PRC), CNSC is now under the direct leadership of the China National Pharmaceutical Group Corporation [Sinopharm].

Over the past years, CNSC has been ranked for many times as one of the Top 500 of Chinese international trading enterprises.

CNSC’s major business scope covers: sales in foreign exchange of Duty-free imported goods for Chinese personnel working abroad; supplying life necessities for Chinese institutions in overseas; operation and agency of import and export; material supply of Chinese government aids for foreign countries and labour service cooperation; international logistics and industrial investment, etc.

CNSC consists of 17 subsidiaries and shareholding companies (including 1 manufacturing enterprises) in China and 5 companies in overseas with a total staff of over 2,000 people.

The President of CNSC Mr. Zhou Yuxiang is also the minor shareholder of the subject.

Sinopharm is the largest medical and healthcare group in China which is directly managed by State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) of the PRC, with the core businesses of distribution, logistics, retail, scientific research and manufacture of healthcare related products.

SH); Beijing Tiantan Biological Products Co. Ltd. (600161. SH); Shyndec Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (600420. SH) and Shenzhen Accord Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (200028. SZ).

The sales revenue of Sinopharm exceeded RMB160 billion Yuan in 2012.  It is the only Chinese pharmaceutical company whose sales revenue exceeds RMB100 billion Yuan.

In 11th January 2013, Sinopharm set up Sinopharm India Pvt., Ltd. in New Delhi, India.  Sinopharm India Pvt. Ltd. was established in the end of 2012 and registered in New Delhi.  With the establishment of Sinopharm India Pvt. Ltd., Sinopharm will fully integrate its business in India, form a working team, enhance publicity, furthermore, not only purchase pharmaceutical preparations and APIs from India, but also export a series of products, including pharmaceutical APIs, intermediates, preparations, vaccines and medical equipments, into Indian market.

On 8th July, 2013. The Fortune magazine published 2013 Global 500 Companies.  Sinopharm becomes the first Chinese pharmaceutical company entering Fortune Global 500 and ranks the 446th.

In 2013, Sinopharm has made successful acquisition of Hong Kong listed Winteam Pharmaceutical Group Ltd.  After completion of the acquisition, Sinopharm TCM holds a 56.97% stake of Winteam Group through its wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong.

The successful acquisition of Winteam Group is an important measures to speed up the development of modern Chinese traditional medicine business in Sinopharm.  Afterwards, it will make full use of Winteam Group’s good industrial base, with the listed company capital platform, to promote rapid development of proprietary Chinese medicine industry.
