PEO (Professional Employer Organizations) help companies to onboard staff in Asia rapidly, in full compliance with local laws, and without the investment required to set up and operate an overseas legal entity.

As a strategy, this allows a company to test market entry into one or more Asian countries, and then retain the option to easily scale back, switch to a different country, or upon proven success in the market, to proceed in establishing a formal presence.
