AMSTERDAM, Oct. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- While there is an anticipation of global trade expanding by slightly over 3% in 2024, the pace of growth in Asia is forecasted to remain subdued and may not be as robust as it was in previous years. The key factor inhibiting growth can be attributed to an ongoing underperformance in exports, which is likely to continue in the short-term due to weaker demand from Asia's main export markets, such as the United States and European Union, and could potentially weaken the domestic resilience shown by Asian economies this year.

Key Points: 
  • One illustration of this is a 6% overall drop in Asian businesses B2B trading on credit over the past year with variations in different markets.
  • Our survey revealed that 70% of Asian companies expect rising demand for their products and services in the months ahead.
  • The survey underscores the adaptability of Asian businesses in the current economic turbulence, emphasizing the importance of thorough risk assessment when trading on credit with B2B customers.
  • Their ability to integrate trade credit insurance into their risk management framework showcases their resilience and forward-thinking approach to business operations and cash flow risks mitigation."

Friday, May 27, 2022

(NASDAQ: RDFN) Price drops are becoming increasingly common, particularly in hot migration destinations, according to a new report from Redfin ( redfin.com ), the technology-powered real estate brokerage.

Key Points: 
  • (NASDAQ: RDFN) Price drops are becoming increasingly common, particularly in hot migration destinations, according to a new report from Redfin ( redfin.com ), the technology-powered real estate brokerage.
  • A homes price is driven by the balance of supply and demand, and when demand drops off and supply increases like it is now, rapid price increases evaporate quickly.
  • For home sellers in these markets, the sharp increase in mortgage rates has knocked some of the wind out of a housing market that had been super-charged by surging migration.
  • If you do have to drop the price, you are far better off doing one large price drop instead of a series of smaller price drops.
