Foodservice delivery is a hot industry, but nowhere is delivery booming more than in South Korea, a market in which hyper-connectivity, an advanced payment infrastructure, and favourable population demographics have created a perfect storm for exceptional delivery services, as well as the highest demand from consumers of any market globally. By the numbers, the South Korean market is a best-case environment for modern delivery services, and these market drivers are critical in supporting demand.Delivery in South Korea, however, is also a truly unique experience, and the small details that make it so attractive should serve as inspiration for delivery companies and influencers that want to make an impact in markets where there is untapped potential, or for those players in established delivery markets competing for share. From the thoughtful, functional packaging to the easy-to-use delivery apps, the seamless nature of the delivery experience in South Korea offers insight into what global delivery will, or at least should, look like in the near future.

Who says nothing big ever happens in December?This past week we obtained, via legally questionable means, a trove of 2016 Christmas gift lists and related correspondence between a number of high-profile individuals and Santa Claus himself. The data dump also includes confidential emails between Mr. Claus and his staff and family members, and offers a window onto arguably the world's most successful (and festive) logistics operation. We contacted a public relations firm representing Santa Claus…

Results of listed terminal operators reveal a weakness in organic earnings as gearing increases. Stricter cost rationalisation and financial risk reduction will retain investment interest. Companies with growth plans command a significant market premium as profitability diminishes.

The stock of foreign direct investment into the "One Belt One Road" bloc is a small share of global investment; nonetheless, the bloc's share of global greenfield investment remain disproportionately large.Examination of large OBOR-resident firms and the composition of their assets and revenues show that many firms in the region remain much more dependent on Chinese sales than do Chinese firms on foreign-earned sales.  Nonetheless, the diversion of Chinese investment from domestic to overseas (as China rebalances its domestic growth away from domestic investment) could potentially shift this dynamic.  Large Chinese firms leading the charge abroad tend to belong to the Transport and Storage and Computer Equipment sectors.Meanwhile, large firms resident in OBOR tend already to be much more dependent on foreign-earned revenue; some of those more dependent on Chinese domestic demand  rather than regional demand may experience fallout from China's rebalancing.  Others exposed to growth elsewhere in the region may benefit, or themselves become targets for Chinese cross-border acquisitions within the region.

Silk Roads Part 3: China and OBOR Investment

In the first piece of the series <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/silk-roads-part-i-background" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="insights:7042">Silk Roads Part I: Background</a> we outlined briefly the drivers behind China's "One Belt One Road" initiative which in our view remains an important complementary external pillar to China's ongoing domestic policy agenda, and thus a high-conviction longer-term investment theme. In the second piece in our Silk Roads series, we situate the OBOR bloc in terms of current liquid investment securities.OBOR markets already comprise 22% of world market capitalisation and are home to about 60% of cross-border investment capital resident in emerging market economies worldwide.  Of that 60%, 40% of this capital is resident in China. From an investment strategy standpoint, this shows that, while beneficiaries of the policy exist further afield than in China itself, there are merits in focusing on those Chinese names exposed to OBOR investments as the first port-of-call.
