Company formation

Includes meeting all the regulatory and official requirements for a legally compliant company structure. In Asia, this often requires a laborious, officious process requiring approval from several ministries. We’ll also facilitate FDA approvals, licensing and regulatory requirements, establishing suitable banking relationships and so on. Your requirements may include locating suitable premises along with full set-up, staffing and commencing operations and we can do that faster and more cost-efficiently that from the home country.

Interim Management

We offer support of operations, administration, direct sales and support and with greater efficiency than hiring and training local expats or relocating home executives. Generally these assignments last a minimum 12 months as we gradually hand-over operations to client’s growing in-country capacity.

Government Relations

Companies dealing mainly with large scale enterprise or with public and government bodies, especially in areas such as public utilities, infrastructure, defence, emergency services, energy, transportation (including data) or other strategic industries have specific requirements for engaging with suitably ranked officials at pertinent local and central government departments.

In differing Asian countries the level of required government engagement can vary but certainly there is always a need for some. Maintaining necessary government relationships is a necessary aspect of our ability to deliver services and in some cases, this can go to senior levels including key influencers and decision makers. We also work closely with local business chambers and organisations and can leverage senior relations through these.

Investments & Joint Ventures

Clients have sometimes requested support in seeking investments and/or joint ventures in specific and complimentary sectors. We offer services in listing target sector companies by profile, size, product category and customer mix for consideration. We can further open discreet lines of communication to determine likely interest in a direct approach. With JV opportunities, we best assist by ensuring that agreements are fully implemented, the assigned tasks are completed, deadlines met and that the proposed JV becomes active.

Exhibitions, Events & Seminars

Asian Insiders offer support in developing and participating in trade events within our Asian territories. We can facilitate with various logistical matters as well as follow up with attendance lists and developing prospective relationships. This includes arranging delegation visits to selected companies, industrial parks, agencies and ministries. This is an ideal way to gain a first appreciation of a market you may be considering.

Outsourced Sales & Purchasing Offices

As client companies engage with the market, then have sometimes requested assistance in managing key sales and/or purchasing activity. Our local knowledge allows us to locate and execute on these more speedily than newly arriving executives from the home office. We can help to make the early operational deals and pass these connections along as your local capacity grows.

Asian Insiders offers four core services – Market Entry, Sourcing & Outsourcing, Operative Services, as well as a range of supplementary services that vary by target market.
