As Supply Chain Patterns Evolve, ASEAN is More Relevant than Ever
"As a key driver of global economic growth, one of the key trends of recent years in ASEAN is the diversification of supply chains. As companies looked to find new manufacturing hubs, ASEAN emerged as an excellent alternative given its diverse yet complementary markets. In particular, markets from Indonesia to Malaysia and Vietnam are benefitting from the global supply chain shift. For example, foreign direct investment in Malaysia and Indonesia reached record highs in 2021 and the first quarter of 2022 respectively.
ASEAN is also a key hub from which to trade with the rest of the world at a time when trade is becoming increasingly regionalized. While historically trade has been driven by multilateral agreements arranged by global agencies, more and more countries are choosing to negotiate trade agreements at a bilateral or regional level. Indeed, ASEAN is a destination of choice for corporates from China, Europe, the United Kingdom and the US who want to access global trade corridors. Foreign direct investment flows from the US into ASEAN reached a 10-year high of $35 billion in 2020.
For businesses looking to invest and expand in ASEAN, having local, reliable partners who can help navigate the nuances of the different economies is vital."
