DENNIS Unkovic states clearly that his goal in "The Art of Investing in America" is to guide Chinese investors in successful acquisitions in the United States.
To do so, he concisely presents - in both English and Chinese - the basics of what Chinese investors need to know about commercial transactions and business procedures in America.
It's conversational, accessible and organized as question-and-answer.
He takes a deliberate, methodical, well-organized approach to a wide range of topics affecting foreign investors, simply explaining relevant laws, policies and cultural expectations tied to American business ventures.
"The Art of Investing in America" is a response to a shift in Chinese investment strategy from buying stocks and bonds to the acquisition of operating US businesses, real estate, and other assets.
Unkovic recognizes the potential for China's investment tactics that can help to pull the US out of recession.
Drawing from his experience as an international attorney and business adviser, he provides a readable and detailed insider's look at American business.
In his how-to primer, Unkovic consistently addresses the needs of Chinese investors as he works his way through an extensive range of topics.
He covers the American legal system, the five most common business structures, negotiating joint venture agreements, trademarks and copyrights, labor unions and immigration laws.
He goes beyond the mechanics and legal requirements and addresses more sensitive issues such as how US workers feel about foreign investors and how Americans handle conflict resolution.
His presentation and format are engaging, breaking the material down into 15 Frequently Asked Questions as chapter headings.
Within each chapter, the subject matter is broken down to address further questions likely to be asked by Chinese investors, and some they had not thought of.
"Cultural Differences Between China and the United States" and "Key Facts You Should Know About America," are among the topics. Unkovic lays the groundwork with answers about population, major industries and regional differences.
He asks, "What are the five most common legal structures?" "How do foreign investors hold ownership in corporations?" and "What taxes do you have to pay as a partner in an LLP?"
Unkovic writes in a conversational style that is accessible to an international audience.
His analysis of the inner workings of American business is a practical and informative tool. Potential Chinese investors in the US would do well to begin with "The Art of Investing in America."
(The book is available from Metallurgical Industry Press in Beijing.)
