  4. Motivations for International Expansion • Increase Market Share • domestic market may lack the size to support efficient scale manufacturing facilities • Return on Investment • large investment projects may require global markets to justify the capital outlays • weak patent protection in some countries implies that firms should expand overseas rapidly in order to preempt imitators

  5. Motivations for International Expansion • Economies of Scale or Learning • expanding size or scope of markets helps to achieve economies of scale in manufacturing as well as marketing, R & D or distribution • can spread costs over a larger sales’ base • increase profit per unit • Location Advantages • low cost markets may aid in developing competitive advantage • may achieve better access to: • Raw materials • Lower cost labor • Key customers • Energy

  7. International Corporate-Level Strategy • Type of corporate strategy selected will have an impact on the selection and implementation of the business-level strategies • Some corporate strategies provide individual country units with flexibility to choose their own strategies • Others dictate business-level strategies from the home office and coordinate resource sharing across units

  8. Multidomestic strategy International Corporate-Level Strategy: Multidomestic Strategy • Strategy and operating decisions are decentralized to strategic business units (SBU) in each country • Products and services are tailored to local markets • Business units in one country are independent of each other • Assumes markets differ by country or regions • Focus on competition in each market • Prominent strategy among European firms due to broad variety of cultures and markets in Europe

  9. Global strategy International Corporate-Level Strategy: Global Strategy • Products are standardized across national markets • Decisions regarding business-level strategies are centralized in the home office • Strategic business units (SBU) are assumed to be interdependent • Emphasizes economies of scale • Often lacks responsiveness to local markets • Requires resource sharing and coordination across borders (which also makes it difficult to manage)

  10. Transnational strategy International Corporate-Level Strategy: Transnational Strategy • Seeks to achieve both global efficiency and local responsiveness • Difficult to achieve because of simultaneous requirements • strong central control and coordination to achieve efficiency • decentralization to achieve local market responsiveness • Must pursue organizational learning to achieve competitive advantage
