The 2014 Australia-China trade report

Examines the benefits of the Australia-China trading relationship at a household level and looks beyond the resources boom and exploring the growth other Australian industries are seeing with China. It also provides practical advice on how to do business in China from Australian businesses already successfully doing it. Executive summary This report provides close analysis of the impact of bilateral trade between Australia and China on Australia’s business and economic integration with global value chains. It also extends the findings of previous reports by evaluating the latest flow-on effects of Australia-China trade for the Australian economy right down to the household level. Commissioned by the Australia China Business Council, this report expands on prior versions of the “Benefits to Australian Households of Trade with China Report” which, since 2009, have tracked the benefits to ordinary Australian households from trade with China.
