Opportunities for Canadian Companies in ASEAN – 2013
The CABC and the Government of Canada are pleased to present an in-depth report to provide a timely assessment of the relative importance of the ASEAN market and the commercial opportunities that it presents for Canadian enterprises.
The report considers ASEAN from a regional, rather than a country by country, perspective. It presents an overview and introductory guide for Canadian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that may be interested in learning more about ASEAN and the opportunities and challenges it offers. ASEAN-Canada trade is reviewed, as are Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flows, and particular sectors of opportunity for Canadian SMEs are identified based on Canadian strengths and areas of expertise.
