Editor's Notes
- #4 The website of the International Olympics Committee explains the sources of revenue generated by the Olympics. More information on the business of the Olympics is on the next slide.
- #5 The chapter opens with a discussion of the business behind the Olympic Games. Cities worldwide compete to host the games. The decision is made by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The cities want to host the games because of the economic growth that can be generated. The Olympics generates revenue from television coverage and corporate sponsors. The highest level of corporate sponsorship for the Olympics costs $60-80 million. Companies are willing to pay these high fees for the opportunity to market their products to consumers worldwide.
- #7 Domestic business involves transactions occurring within the boundaries of a single country, while international business transactions cross national boundaries. In addition, the countries may use difference currencies, forcing at least one party to convert its currency for another. The legal systems may vary or even be incompatible. The cultures may differ and the resources may vary. For example, one country may be rich in natural resources, but poor in skilled labor. Still, the basic skills and knowledge needed to be successful are generally similar whether one is doing business domestically or internationally.
- #8 Large organizations are likely to have international operations or at least be affected by the global economy. Student may work for a company that is owned by a foreign subsidiary. Small businesses are growing their businesses by selling in foreign markets, using foreign-made materials, and competing with foreign firms. Studying international business helps students to compete with students from other countries. It is also important for staying abreast of the latest business techniques and tools, such as JIT systems. Lastly, studying international business helps students to become culturally literate, meaning that they can better understand and appreciate the similarities and differences of the world’s people.
- #9 These three international business activities will be presented on the following slides.
- #10 International business activity historically first took the form of exporting and importing.
- #12 Exporting and importing activities are often divided into two groups: trade in goods and trade in services. The British call trade in goods visible trade. It is trade in tangible products such as clothing. Trade in services is known as invisible trade and it includes intangible products like banking and travel.
- #13 In 2005, exports accounting for 60% of Boeing’s commercial aircraft sales.
- #14 The second major form of international business activity is international investments. Foreign direct investments (FDI) are investments made for the purpose of actively controlling property, assets, or companies located in host countries. For example, Ford’s investment in Sweden’s Volvo Corporation is a foreign direct investment. Portfolio investments are purchases of foreign financial assets (stocks, bonds, cds) for a purpose other than control. For example, a Danish pension fund purchased 1,000 shares of Sony common stock.
- #15 In addition to exporting, importing, and investments, there are also other forms of international business activity. These include management contracts, licensing, and franchising. Licensing is a contractual arrangement in which a firm in one country licenses the use of its intellectual property to a firm in another country in exchange for a royalty payment. Franchising is a specialized form of licensing which occurs when a firm in one country authorizes a firm in another to utilize its operating systems as well as its brand names, trademarks, and logos for a royalty payment. A management contract is an arrangement wherein a firm in one country agrees to operate facilities or provide other management services to a firm in another country for an agreed-upon fee. Examples include Marriott and Hilton which do not own all of the hotels that bear their brand names.
- #16 There are different types of international organizations. The term multinational corporation (MNC) is used to identify firms that have extensive involvement in international business. MNCs typically own and control foreign assets, buy resources in a variety of countries, create goods or services, and then sell those goods and services in a variety of countries. Some international organizations are not true MNCs and they may be termed multinational enterprises (MNEs). The term multinational organization (MNO) may be used to describe any international organization, whether for-profit or not-for-profit.
- #17 This slide describes the characteristics of MNCs.
- #18 This table includes the world’s largest MNCs as of July 2006.
- #19 Globalization can be defined as the inexorable integration of markets, nation-states, and technologies in a way that is enabling individuals, corporations, and nation-states to reach around the world faster, farther, cheaper, and deeper than ever before. This slide provides the motives for companies to globalize. One major motive is the opportunity to leverage a core competency that a firm has developed in its home market. A core competency is a distinctive strength or advantage that is central to a firm’s operation.
