The Asia and Pacific region is expected to contribute roughly 60 percent to global growth in 2024 and 2025, with China at the forefront of it. With a presence in the region for more than 35 years, we have built up a unique experience which we use to assist our clients in their investments in the region and to assist the key players from this region in their investments in Europe and Africa.
