Company Special: Mercuria: Structural challenges in China's energy sector

While Asia remains an engine for world economic growth, there will be some changes in its path to further development, said Marco Dunand, chairman and co-founder of Mercuria Energy Trading SA, a specialist in the energy commodity sector.

"Over the past decade, economic development in China has essentially focused on manufacturing," he said.

But in the next 10 years, the economy "will grow more internally".
