Focus #China 2023: more companies granted #payment terms but over shorter average durations. "2023 was the year when economic activities generally normalised from the pandemic. The same went for corporate business practices regarding payment terms. As market competition and practices returned to normal, more companies took the initiative to grant payment terms." explains Junyu Tan, Coface North Asia Economist. Nevertheless, #companies remain cautious and are proposing tighter payment terms. Indeed, even if they are shorter, #delayed payments are on the rise: 62% in 2023, compared with 40% in 2022. 👉 Find out more in our #survey: https://lnkd.in/d4MSsYpr

🚨 2024 seems set to be another difficult year for the #construction and real estate sectors. Particularly sensitive to market trends, these two sectors are going through a period of severe #tension, both on the #residential and #commercial fronts. The residential market is facing a double constraint: supply is more expensive (labour shortages, rising raw material prices), and demand is falling (due to rising interest rates). In commercial real estate, the spread of homeworking has led to a drop in demand for office space, and high interest rates are slowing the number of transactions. 👉 Access the detailed analysis of our #economists at https://lnkd.in/esXXG9GR

📢 Coface unveils its latest Country and Sector Risk Barometer! After a somewhat turbulent but ultimately better-than-expected 2023, 2024 promises to be a busy, and decisive year. On the #geopolitical front, no less than 60 elections are expected, and on the #economic front, risks are piling up as the global economy continues to slow down. Here are the key points of our study: ☑ A global #growth that bends but doesn't break ☑ A quasi-stagnant economy in Europe ☑ An adverse environment for #companies (inflation and interest rates) ☑ Emerging economies still driving growth, but very heterogeneous ☑ Escalating #tensions in the Red Sea, and shipping costs soar Against this uncertain backdrop, we have modified the assessments of 13 countries (12 upgrades and 1 downgrade) and 22 sectors (17 upgrades and 5 downgrades), reflecting a significant improvement in the outlook, but in an environment that remains highly unstable. 👉 Find all our economic analysis in our #Barometer: https://lnkd.in/e9TJdmJg
