  1. The Macro Environmental Scan: Understanding Globalization Tassu Shervani

  2. Two “Types” of Capitalist Economic Systems Supply Side Economics Savings/ Capital Formation Investment/Production Employment Income Demand Side Economics Consumption/ Demand Investment/Production Employment Income

  3. Economic Transformation • Since the New Deal and the end of WWII, the U.S. economy had relied much more on demand side logic • Since the end of WWII, Japan and Germany had relied much more on supply side logic • Since supply side economies invest more, they can become very productive and competitive over time, as Japan and Germany did

  4. National Tax Revenue Structure of Selected Countries (%)

  5. Personal Deposits and Savings in Japan (%) (1975 – 1993)

  6. Macro-Economic Sectors TRADE PUBLIC DOMESTIC

  7. Economic Transformation • By the 1970’s the U.S. economy had stagnated • In the 1980’s, the U.S. began to shift to supply side thinking What is the problem with this scenario? • Japan and Germany must move to demand side thinking

  8. Economic Transformation: U.S., Japan and Germany, SE Asia • On September 22, 1985, the Plaza Accord was signed, under which the Yen and the Mark were revalued versus the U.S. Dollar • Realizing that the days of manufacturing in Japan and selling in the U.S. were over, Japan begins to target exports to Europe and to invest in SE Asia • SE Asian “Economic Miracle” is accelerated

  9. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates Against the U.S. Dollar (national currency per US$)

  10. Japan’s Direct Overseas Investment (FY 1951 – 1993)

  11. Transformation in Europe • Western Europe amends the Treaty of Rome • Trade negotiations with Japan centralized • Initiatives to catch up with the U.S. and Japan in hi tech • Borderless Europe by December 1992 • Integration of Eastern Europe • Monetary union follows – Creation of the Euro • Next step: Common Immigration Policy - 2010 • Next step: Turkish entry into EU - 2015

  12. Transformation in the U.S. • Foreign Exchange Policy • Trade Policy • Labor Environment • Capital Market • Tax Policy • Antitrust Policy • National Science & Technology Policy

  13. Transformation in China and India • China watches SE Asian boom and accelerates process of reform in the late-1980’s. By mid-nineties the Chinese economy begins to take off • India watches China’s take-off, begins economic reforms in 1991. By the late-1990’s, India’s economy begins to take-off

  14. China and India - Opportunities • 2.5 Billion people • $4,000 increase in per capita GDP over 15 years • $10 Trillion in GDP creation – roughly equal to the size of today’s U.S. or Western European economy • Infrastructure comes first • Big focus on transportation!!! • Go to where the opportunity is!!!!!

  15. U.S. - Opportunities • Developed country with the demographic profile of a developing country • # 1 in assimilating and integrating immigrants • Growth in financial services, biotech, nanotech, infotech, and materials technology

  16. Europe - Opportunities • Integration of Eastern Europe: • 150mm people X $30,000 per capita GDP = $4.5 Trillion • Similar to U.S., focus on financial services and technology in Western Europe • Tremendous edge in technology, market share of 24% in scientific publications

  17. What Can Get in the Way? • United States • Terrorism – WMD attack • Declining educational system, K-12 • Declining science and technology funding and negative attitude toward sciences • Europe • Inability to absorb immigrants • Slowdown of integration efforts • Issue of Turkey in EU • China • No political reform • Failure to solve banking crisis • AIDS • India • Nuclear war • AIDS • Speed of economic reform

  18. What Can Get in the Way? – For All • Energy Crisis • 2006 Production and consumption: 84 mm bpd • 2020 projected consumption: 110 mm bpd • Capex from 1975-2004 : $80B/year • Capex from 2005-2014: $250B/year • Saudi Arabia • Russia • Iraq • Iran • Kuwait • Venezuela • Nigeria 7 of Top 10 producers are highly unstable

  19. Impact of Offshoring on Developed Countries • Assume 7-8 million jobs offshored • Assume cost reduction of $50,000 per job • Total savings: $350-400B annually • Assume half passed on to consumers: • Prices reduction of $175-200B • Assume half kept by firms • Profit increase of $175-200B • After tax $120-135B • P/E of 18, means wealth creation around $2 trillion • 60% of U.S. stocks owned by pension funds • Trend will stabilize as Yuan and Rupee are revalued and as local costs rise – already started!!!

  20. Yuan and Rupee Revaluation 2007-2025 • Rupee has been revalued by 20% since 2003 • Yuan revaluation begins now, 2% in mid-2005 with more to follow, 8% to date • By 2025, 3-4 Yuan and 20-25 Rupees to the U.S. dollar • Same logic as with Japan in 1985 (Plaza Accord)
