EU-China relations 2015 and beyond

2015 will be a critical year for EU-China relations. We expect progress in the negotiations for the EU-China bilateral investment agreement; the EU will have to decide on whether it will grant China market economy status; and in 2015 we will celebrate the 40th anniversary of EU-China bilateral relations. To mark the event BUSINESSEUROPE published the report “EU-China relations 2015 and beyond”, its first official publication on China since 2011. The report highlights trade and investment trends in eight sectors, covers China’s reform agenda and the priority issues we believe China should address. The report also assesses the recommendations put forward by BUSINESSEUROPE in 2011 on key issues facing business in China.
