TEAM GROUP held a seminar on “Seeking Business Opportunity through Investment in Myanmar” to share useful information about business investment in Myanmar before the AEC takes effect.

TEAM GROUP, a foremost Thai consultancy in multidisciplinary areas including integrated management, has envisaged business expansion in the ASEAN market and so established its 15th affiliate — Total Business Solutions Co., Ltd. or TBS — a joint venture with an engineering consultancy in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar. First of its type in Myanmar, TBS is headquartered in Yangon and provides one-stop services for business establishment and operation. Total solutions TBS offers to clients, investors included, range from investment opportunity studies, feasibility assessment, to implementation and operation.

According to TEAM GROUP Chairman Dr. Prasert Patramai, Myanmar is currently welcoming foreign investments and its natural resource abundance is much favorable for future economic development. Myanmar is thus a very attractive investment destination for overseas investors. Thanks to their adjacent locations, Thailand and Myanmar has long developed cross-border trading. In 2011, the cross-border trade value rose to more than 180,000 million baht and Thailand’s export to Myanmar reached over 85,000 million baht. As such, Thai investors should not overlook their business opportunity in Myanmar, which will also encourage their preparedness for the challenge of AEC to be materialized in 2015.
