...HONG KONG/CHINA Bosideng International A warm and cosy stock A dominant brand with household recognition We initiate coverage on Bosideng with an Outperform, with 35% upside to our target price. Bosideng dominates China’s down jacket market with an estimated 37% market share in CY10. Its top brand is ranked the 13th most valuable consumer brand in China. We expect core revenue CAGR of 13% in FY12-14 on the back of continued penetration of down jackets in China. Additionally, Bosideng is building out a menswear business. While this makes up only 10% of revenues in FY12E, we expect it to generate organic revenue CAGR of 33% with the potential for further upside from acquisitions. High free cash flow and dividend yield Photo taken by the report’s lead analyst in rural China. “A Christmas to remember” – December 2010 3998 HK Price 27 Oct 11 12-month target Upside/Downside Valuation - PER Outperform HK$2.07 HK$ % HK$ 2.80 35.3 2.80 Bosideng is currently sitting on HK$2.8bn net cash and we forecast a free cash flow yield of 6% in FY12, rising to 10% in FY14. With a 75% payout ratio, Bosideng should generate a dividend yield of 8% in FY12. Bosideng is looking to make acquisitions in the highly fragmented menswear market. Past acquisitions have been successful and we don’t think it is likely the company will make any acquisition that depletes more than half of the cash pile at most; thus we think the dividend is secure.

...Abstract The paper talks about the primary market, FDIs, capital makets, banking sector and infrastructure financing as well. With all these elements in the India Financial market, it happens to be one of the oldest across the globe and is definitely the fastest growing and best among all the financial markets of the emerging economies. The history of Indian capital markets spans back 200 years, around the end of the 18th century. It was at this time that India was under the rule of the East India Company. The capital market of India initially developed around Mumbai; with around 200 to 250 securities brokers participating in active trade during the second half of the 19th century. The journey of Indian financial markets has been of many shades over the last decade. We have seen a lot of progress, but also significant pauses. Many twists and as many turns. Awe inspiring growth punctuated by its gasping lack of inclusiveness. Presumably, these are the teenage pangs of a free economy which is jostling for its rightful place in the Globe. The fastest free market economy is now face to face with the challenges and opportunities to opt for either slow and steady or fast and furious growth, in the next decade. Financial market You are fully aware that business units have to raise short-term as well as long-term funds to meet their working and fixed capital requirements from time to time. This necessitates not only the ready availability of such funds but also a transmission...

In any country, having local knowledge of your market is good; having local leadership on the ground is better. However, eBay assigns its high management positions to people who are not from Mainland China, who lack understanding of the local market. The fact that eBay had a strong brand in the United States didn’t mean it would be a strong brand in China. Security and Payment One of the most important factors, which let customers make purchase decisions, is security, and security issues are mostly related to payment process. When competing in payment services, Jack Ma and his team use their Chinese “guanxi” with key government officials and leaders in the Chinese banking industry to secure and process payment transactions. eBay has introduced its traditional payment method, Paypal, while Taobao has introduced a similar one, Alipay. Before 2007, the difference between Paypal and Alipay is the process of payment. Through Paypal, buyers pay directly to sellers, without any third party involvement...

...experience in IT and communications. Martin Umaran is the COO, and has a background in executive and business management for technology companies. Lastly, Nestor Nocetti is the VP of Corporate Services, with experience in the IT industry. The four engineers saw an opportunity to start their company with the rapid growth of the IT outsourcing industry in India and China. They recognized that Latin America’s advantages in labor quality, labor supply and time zone would give them a leg up on their competition, even though both India and China have lower labor cost. By exploiting these advantages, they were able to grow at a rapid pace. By 2009, Globant had over 1500 employees and was generating three million dollars per month in revenue. Despite their success, Globant found themselves at a crossroads. For four years the founders pursued clients that needed IT expertise in anything under the broad spectrum of IT services. However, the management team recognized that Globant needed to target specific industries to remain competitive in the market. The team therefore, narrowed their scope to four very distinct market segments for further analysis: high-tech, telecom, travel and financial services industries. Globant recognized that their diversified client portfolio was spreading resources too thin, and top clients began choosing IT service partners that focused on a specific industry where they could demonstrate a deep and wide understanding of a particular sector of the market.

...China 2015: Transportation and Logistics Strategies Leadership requires innovation, expansion and redesigned networks A s China’s economy grows, so grows its transportation and logistics industry. China is becoming a more mature and self-confident country and a driving force in the new global economic structure, and this is bringing new challenges and opportunities to the five sectors of the country’s transportation and logistics industry — express, road freight, air freight, contract logistics and international freight forwarding. How can Chinese companies improve the country’s transportation and logistics environment? Leadership in this industry requires innovation, expansion and redesigned networks. China’s extraordinary economic growth continues. Even as the global economy struggles to recover from the financial crisis, various statistics indicate that China’s economy has emerged resilient, with rapid growth expected to last into the foreseeable future. In this context, the transportation and logistics industry in China is also poised for major growth over the next five years, portending significant changes for its five main segments: express, road freight, air freight, contract logistics and international freight forwarding (see figure 1 on page 2). As the boundaries between these segments blur, consolidation will accelerate and network coverage and density will grow. At the same time, an increasing focus on sustainability will add new pressures to cost structures....
