Investing in the future of the new economy in Asia
Click here for CIT NUSLive webcast!
Abstract
Despite the bursting of the NASDAQ bubble, the real new economy will continue to grow at an exponential rate, generating huge increases in wealth in the process. While Asia has lagged the development of the new economy in the US in the early stages, Asia excels at applied technology stages and investments in Asia will be on the leading edge of the growth curve over the next decade. Development of the new economy in Asia will be similar to North America, but will also have a uniquely Asian flavor. These differences will create the most profitable investment opportunities for investors. Asian demographics are powerful, especially for products where scale means value.
