These offices gather crucial market information and assess feasibility, aiding parent companies in making informed long-term investment decisions.
Serving as intermediaries between foreign entities and the dynamic Asian market, REs/ROs enhance strategic planning and market understanding, offering a prudent approach for expanding global presence while mitigating investment risks in the region.
