International Business Environment MGT387 Wu Kefei 11504424 4 10 Generally speaking the international business environment includes the Legal Technological Accounting and Political Ricky W Griffin p76 Virtually all decisions facing international managers whom to hire how to market their company s goods in the host market which technologies to adopt and so forth are affected by the national environment of the country in which the transaction occurs The requirement of the international business environment the smaller risk higher of the safety the loss threat is small earn more opportunities But in fact high investment income often occurred with bigger risk Even so we want to compare the returns and risks only the earning is enough to offset the cost of risk international business activities can be undertaken We should think over the environment in these methods First consider the comparison of the countries Second evaluation of operating environment level method Third use the opportunity threat analysis method In a broad sense the international business environment of the enterprise has been divided into two parts the environment of the host countries and the international management environment The international business is provided with similarity regularity and the extensive conditionality said the Xue Qiuzhi 2002 Helen Deresky 2011 p15 make the conclusion that at the present situation the financial crisis is hitting the world of work A We should consider the global business environment In this part we should think over the Globality and Emerging Markets Effects of Institutions on Global Trade Effects of Globalization of Corporations Regional Trading Blocs and the Global Manager s role MGT387 Wu Kefei 11504424 5 10 B The political and economic environment Proactive globally oriented firms maintain an up to date profile of the countries on which they maintain operations or have plans for future investment In this part we can see the political risk political risk assessment managing political risk and managing terrorism risk economic risk C The legal environment The prudent global manager consults with legal services both locally and at headquarters to comply with host country regulations and to maintain cooperative long term relationships in the local area In this part the contract law other regulatory issues are the important views D The technological environment The effects of technology around the world are pervasive both in business and in private lives In many parts of the world whole generations of technological development are being skipped over In this part the global e business is the key point A skillful global manager cannot develop a suitable strategic plan or consider an investment abroad within these elements Case From the first KFC setting up in Beijing there are 2000 KFC restaurants in China 1 Localization innovation KFC has been developed as the speed of opening one restaurant a day in China It shows the internal environment of the international business In fact KFC purchased the material at the local areas As their three basic foods bread chicken and vegetables has been purchased all from China As we know people widely acclaimed menu location They improve the hamburgers towards Chinese taste And they provided the Beijing roll chicken and the new rice set meal KFC doesn t be a stickler for their own product created many new localizational food In this point KFC is a superior 2 Nonzero start This is only for franchisee As a franchisee they don t need to choose the place where it open recruit employee trains itself KFC give the MGT387 Wu Kefei 11504424 6 10 franchisee operating mature and profitable restaurants This can increase the success rate and the quality of the operation Also help themselves expand quickly 3 Go to third class city KFC decline the expense for franchisee in second third class city This can ct the cost of management and the operating risk From the above KFC has analyze the environment thorough This makes KFC in a good development in China Topic 2 Ethics and Social Responsibility The present situation of the management
