Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: This term paper shall give an overview of different options to enter an emerging market and indicate a company about identifying the most promising market entry strategy. Which factors determine the market entry strategy for an emerging market? To answer these questions company and market specific factors in terms of emerging markets will be considered. E.g. company size, market potential or social and cultural differences might eliminate strategies already before. But are the chances opening up by entering an emerging market predominant and worth the risk? Following the introduction, the second chapter provides definitions of emerging markets and developing countries. Furthermore it illustrates the characteristics of emerging markets on the basis of the BRIC countries. In Chapter three factors affecting the decision for a market entry strategy are displayed. Moreover this chapter includes chances and risks of entering emerging markets. Chapter four explains different market entry strategies which are then critically analysed with regard to the previous findings in chapter five. On this basis chapter six provides the conclusion including answers to the afore-mentioned questions.

Many multinational firms see emerging markets as one of their most important growth opportunities: Either they are planning market entry, have just entered the market, or have operated in the market for some time. The key issue is how they can build and sustain profitable operations. After an overview of existing theories around market entry and a comparison of entry conditions in Asian emerging countries, the book investigates success factors of foreign banks in Eastern Europe. A theoretical model of the most important performance determinants is built and subsequently tested with detailed empirical data. In addition, the book provides interesting insights on potential strategies after initial market entry. Industrial organization concepts are applied to the Chinese automotive sector, leading to practical recommendations on how to remain profitable in an increasingly competitive market.

Doing Business in Emerging Markets: Entry and Negotiation Strategies is an authoritative and timely guide for executives who are contemplating business in these markets. Including numerous exhibits and real-world examples, the authors explore analysis and evaluation of market potential, management of the negotiation process, and the recognition of important regional business styles and cultural issues. Students and professors in MBA or Ph.D. programs in international management, marketing, and strategy will also find this an invaluable aid to understanding emerging markets.

Master a complete roadmap for emerging market business success and profitability! Emerging markets are generating unprecedented opportunities, but they are far more complex and risky than they may seem. Profiting in these markets entails retooling business models, products, and strategies to exploit these differences, instead of falling victim to them. Too many American, European and Japanese companies continue to operate with a “developed world” mentality that seeks to merely adapt existing products and strategies, while underestimating the unique challenges of managing a business in radically different contexts. Operating in Emerging Markets draws from real-life examples and today’s most valuable research to offer a step-by-step blueprint for improving profitability in emerging markets. Pioneering researchers Dr. Luciano Ciravegna and Dr. Robert Fitzgerald walk you through understanding the true risks and challenges; identifying and investing the right resources; developing the right strategies, products, and processes; and learning from both the successes and failures that have come before you. An indispensable resource for all decision-makers in companies that are (or plan to) operating in emerging markets; and for all graduate business students who may do so in the future. "Publications devoted to rapidly transforming economies are on the rise, but the contribution is often marginal. This new book, Operating in Emerging Markets , authored by Luciano Ciravegna, Robert Fitzgerald, and Sumit Kundu, is an exception. It provides valuable insights into what makes these economies grow and prosper. Most importantly, it responds to the need for practical approaches to tapping emerging markets. Thus it should assist current and future managers in navigating these high-potential but high-risk countries." --S. Tamer Cavusgil, Callaway Professorial Chair and Executive Director, CIBER, J.

This book explores the internationalization of Turkish multinationals by examining a set of firms from various industries and providing eleven detailed case studies. The authors aim to discover the reasons behind the drive for internationalization within the firms, and how their internationalization processes work. By focusing on a medium-sized emerging country, which is strategically located at the intersection of European, Asian and African markets, Turkish Multinationals provide a significant contribution to research on multinational firms in emerging countries. Topics discussed include: strategic motives for and drivers of internationalization at multiple levels (firm, industry and institutional); the location, ownership and entry modes of multinational firms; and their market entry and post-acquisition strategies, which are critical to the evolution of the internationalization process. This innovative book will offer an alternative perspective to current debate on emerging markets, and will be of great interest to both academics of global strategy and international business, and policy-makers.
