country in the process of
rapid growth and
industrialisation

12. Features of emerging markets
• Economies making a transition
• Rapid industrialisation (i.e. development of
secondary & tertiary sectors)
• Have potential to become developed economies
• Faster long-term economic growth than most
developed economies
• Many inhabitants still in poverty
• Businesses struggle to access global markets
(e.g. trade barriers)

13. The four classic emerging markets

INDIA CHINA

14. Rise of the BRICs
• BRICs = Brazil, Russia, India & China
• Research by Jim O’Neill (Goldman
Sachs) 10 years ago highlighted the
prominent rise of four emerging
markets
• Particularly significant for developed
economies – because of their scale
and growth rate

18. Threats from emerging markets
• Increasingly large pool of skilled, but
low-cost labour
• Undervalued currencies make their
exports cheaper
• Inadequate protection of brand and
other intellectual property
• State subsidy of industries to make
them more competitive globally

19. Opportunities in emerging markets
• Growing numbers of educated middle class
consumers - = growing consumer spending
• Cultural shifts – e.g. higher demand for personal
products, private education & healthcare
• Demand for infrastructure and other products &
services from developed economies
• Source of high-skilled but low-cost labour
(outsourcing / offshoring)
• Great potential for joint ventures and
acquisitions

20. Key risks and threat of emerging markets
• Political instability
• Cultural differences / sensitivities
• Variable approaches to financial & legal
dealings (e.g. contractual law)
• Corruption and bureaucracy still an issue
• Emerging markets becoming major exporters
• Low-cost production makes developed
economies uncompetitive in some markets

21. Example – Indian IT “exports”
India now
dominates the
global market
for offshoring of
IT-enabled
services

22. Example – the impact of lower costs
"This is another
shameless example
of British workers
being dumped in
favour of low-wage
exploitation in
Poland," said Jeff
Morland, Unite
regional officer
http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2007/dec/14/manufacturing.ireland

23. Emerging Markets as part
of a strategy of
International Expansion

24. Reasons why business increasingly operate
overseas
• To grow revenues directly (exporting)
• Cross-border acquisitions and joint ventures (e.g.
a UK business buys a competitor in India)
• Organic growth overseas (e.g. Tesco opening
superstores in Poland, Malaysia & Thailand)
• Moving production overseas – to enable faster
lead times to customers and/or reduce costs (e.g.
Dyson relocating production to Malaysia)
• Increasing use of offshoring (e.g. using financial
call centres in India)

25. Attraction of international markets
• Stronger economic growth in emerging economies
such as China, India, Brazil and Russia
• Market saturation and maturity (slow or declining
sales) in domestic markets
• Easier to reach international customers using e-
commerce
• Greater government support for businesses wishing to
expand overseas (exports seen as a source of economic
growth)
• Shareholder pressure to grow revenues and profits
through international expansion

26. Emerging Markets & Ansoff

27. Emerging markets provide an opportunity
to enter new markets
• Market development = taking existing
products, brands & services and reaching
relevant customers in international
markets
• Diversification = developing new
products for new geographical areas
• Most investment in emerging markets by
UK firms has been in the form of market
development

28. Global brands have led the stampede into
emerging markets
• The most important reason for
expansion into emerging markets
• Global brands need to operate globally
• By definition they need to be active in
fast-growing emerging markets as well
as having established market shares in
developed economies

29. Methods of reaching emerging markets
Exporting direct The UK business takes orders from international customers and
to customers ships them to the customer destination
Selling via A distribution or agency contract is made with one or more
overseas agents intermediaries
or distributors Distributors & agents may buy stock to service local demand
The customer is owned by the distributor or agent
Opening an Involves physically setting up one or more business locations in
operation the target markets
overseas Initially may just be a sales office – potentially leading onto
production facilities (depends on product)
Joint venture or The business acquires or invests in an existing business that
buying a business operates in the target market
overseas

30. Key international risk factors
• Cultural differences
– A business needs to understand local cultural influences in order to
sell its products effectively. For example, a product may be viewed as
a basic commodity at home, but not in the target overseas market.
The sales and marketing approach will need to reflect this.
• Language issues
– Although the common business language worldwide is now English,
there could still be language issues. Can the business market its
product effectively in the local language? Will it have access to
professional translators and marketing agencies?
• Legislation
– Legislation varies widely in overseas markets and will affect how to
sell into them. A business must make sure it adheres to local laws. It
will also need to consider how to find and select partners in overseas
countries, as well as how to investigate the freight and
communications options available.
