Industrial policyDownloadContentSummaryThe localization of intermediate goods is essentially a means of import substitution for industries that are promoted by under-developed and developing countries to strengthen their competitiveness in the world economy and build economical independence.
Adjusting their strategy due to the industrialization of their production structures since 1960, developing countries are beginning to actively pursue oversea-oriented export promotion rather than import substitution.
With an abundant labor force but a shortage of technology and resources, underdeveloped and developing countries were dependent on importing capital and intermediate goods such as capital and technology-intensive machinery to enlarge their production facilities.
To this end, trade loss was accelerated and a heavy burden was imposed on their economy.
In this context, developing countries are interested in promoting capital and technology-intensive industry such as the heavy and chemical industry, for example electronics, automobile, machinery and equipment. -

DownloadContentSummaryCross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&As), or the merger and acquisition of local companies by multinational companies as an overseas expansion strategy, have recently attracted attention.
Cross-border M&As, a form of industrial merger, is a dual concept of acquisitions where foreign companies take over the right of management at a local company and mergers of two companies in two different countries.
Behind such cross-border M&As is the increase in direct investment for international trade and industrial mergers.
Following the lead of the United States and Britain, the boom of cross-border M&As escalated in the 1980s due to the increase in corporate takeover bids through the stock market, the viability of M&As as a revenue source and leveraged buyouts. Moreover, this trend is likely to spread to the European Continent, which has taken a conservative position to M&As in accordance with East Europe liberalization and economic integration. -

SummaryIn a world where foreign direct investment plays an important role in resource allocations, multinational enterprises have been drawing much attention and raising two general issues regading their role. First. multinational firms make great contributions to enhancing economic efficiency, by expanding and replacing their economic activities all over the world based on the simple economic principle of efficiency, In a world of truly free trade and investment, the only guiding light for firms is the search to uncover latent profit. Multinational enterprises are the soldiers seeking that goal thereby contributing to the world of economic efficiency by enlarging the pie-size for the world community. Secondly, the economic activities of multinational enterprises create the political economic problem of what rules can be used for cutting and assigning the slices of pie to the parties involved. In some sense, this matter can be described as an economic noncooperative game between national sovereignties and multinational firms.
