a way the framework for its. for more on that whole story i'm joined now by nicholas castle's from the j.f.k. institute on north american studies good to have you with us so that's quite an interesting set up we're seeing here on the one hand a not very diplomatic u.s. president on the other a chinese president who is a seaman opened up to two markets and embracing them how much of all that rhetoric rings true to you. well donald trump is that's just rhetoric that is having made two hundred fifty billion dollars in trade deals with china just you know the day before yesterday. he's now refusing to actually take the one power that's responsible for the mess of north american asia trip deficit so he's talking basically to the world crowd and he knows that but he needs to talk to them because
12:21 pm
his electorate at home needs to hear him fight for what he calls fair trade at the same time at the same time he is very much under fire at home because of the f.b.i. investigations into alleged russian interference you know actually it's not going away that quickly that's not going away any time soon so he needed to bring something juicy back home that's china he needs to stay true to his rhetoric that's now the optics summit in so that is where we are so trump is playing to his home base is home and crowded and he is returning with a two hundred fifty billion dollars business deal with china what's china getting out of this that's very interesting because two years ago china unpacked its currency the renminbi from from the u.s. dollar so now when the dollar goes up there and he doesn't doesn't react as strongly and because of the resulting devaluation particularly chinese holders of us went on a spending spree china consequentially imposed some restrictions on these invest.
12:22 pm
because many of them were going to roy and no china actually has some solid investment opportunities especially in alaskan oil where the cac investment fund and the bank of china. round about forty billion dollars china has smarted a president who last stretch strategic focus in the region well china also a lot of people saying that is strengthened because president a while ago decided to pull the united states out of the trans-pacific partnership t p p which as we just heard in this report the remaining nations they're still struggling to somehow get this deal off the ground what are they struggling with they don't have a leader the u.s. is the biggest economy china second. not even a close second and the idea back in the day when the obama administration pushed forty p.-p. was to outweigh china in the pacific on both fronts and security policy as well as
12:23 pm
trade because you know they follow both routes at the same time that's why it's called a strategy with the u.s. having pulled out the remaining nations lek this leader and like the vision of saying what do you actually want from t p p t p p used to have a purpose it doesn't know ok and it's unlikely that to morrow at the asean summit in manila we'll be able to actually. gain the trust of leaders there to come up with you know it's difficult for them to find direction because as you mentioned the leader there is missing right now and you can ask there from the j.f.k. institute a north american studies thank you so much. of course we use the e.u. in the united states of criticize china for its restrictions on foreign investment in the finance sector now china is gradually opening up the industry according to the country's finance ministry foreign entities will now be allowed to own the majority in banks asset management and security up to fifty one percent instead of
12:24 pm
the previous cap of forty nine percent and in three years all the restrictions on foreign entities will be lifted the chinese government says this is the right time to liberalize the financial sector. that is certainly something that to my colleague at the frankfurt stock exchange daniel corp was listening to very closely daniel why is now such a good time to liberalize the chinese market. while i feel monica that this again has to do a lot with donald trump and his latest politics because of course china has had this impaired for image for a long time to do very difficult to be very difficult when it comes to foreign investors and i do feel that they are just that they just waited for the moment you know at the time you know when they are saying well basically forget all the commons that we have made in the past investors do have the feeling at the moment
12:25 pm
it is rather difficult to do business with the united states because of all this protectionism forget everything what we have done in the past and now it's time to do business with china and i think that's why we are seeing those changes and those comments ok so if now is the time to do business with china we're so far what were the biggest hurdles for foreign investors in china. well there were many challenges that are investors were facing when doing business with china this already started doing a simple wire transfer from europe to china can be very a challenge this continues also just look taining a visa for people that want to work in china this was a process that could that could take months sometimes even years and of course also the language i mean i was just in beijing a few months ago and really just you know speaking english and german and know chinese that sometimes even hard to go with
12:26 pm
