The Ever Changing Global Economy
If you have watched the news, read a newspaper, picked up any business magazine, you are aware the U.S. dollar is weak, and becoming weaker every day. For this reason, it would be wise to look at the global market place when selecting the business model that you wish to build and develop with a network marketing business. Why not take that same "global market place" concept and apply it towards your own home-based business? Or at the very least, weigh that as part of your decision making process when selecting your business partner. Just imagine how great it would be to have people on your global team working for you while you sleep and waking to see that your team is building in Asia, South America...
In a Global Economy, Local Business Still Stands Out
Even though many companies have "gone global", offering services and products irrelevant of geographic location of their offices or their clients, the market for local business seems to have weathered the global phenomenon, in fact, many consumers still look to a local business first to provide them with what they need. The Face to Face Difference. In a society where people are becoming more and more reliant on email, IM's and texting to talk, and where social media sites have replaced having coffee with friends, when it comes time to find a local business contractors, many people still feel the need of face to face business transactions. Especially when that business will bring a contractor into...
As the Global Economy Approaches a 2050 Peak of 9.5 Billion People, How Will This Effect Rentals?
The question of rental prices considering global population trends is a difficult one. First, demand is local. Second, many of the costs of renting are commodity based. These specific issues generally cause people to keep the discussion focused on their local area because broader global effects are difficult assess. Nevertheless, from a long term perspective the discussion is worthwhile. For the United States and most of the developed world, population is either level or falling in most of these countries. This implies less gross demand pressure compared to the past. However, globally growth to 9.5 billion from a current 6.7 billion level will put intense pressure on many commodity products such as...
Thriving in Today's Global Economy - Part 4 - Serve Others
This article is a continuation from the previous 3 articles where I discuss the lessons that Yossi Ghinsberg learned through his harrowing experience lost alone in the Amazon jungle. Today we continue on with a profound experience he had which saved his life. Yossi was in severe pain. His feet were torn to shreds, he survived off barely any food, and he was covered in painful insect bites. One night a flash flood arrived sweeping Yossi away. He survived and spent days crawling his way through mud and debris on his hands and knees as his feet would no longer carry him. One day when he could go no further he collapsed and begged for his life to be taken. Somewhere in the middle of his anguished...
How to Save Money on International Business Calls
Being able to cheap call Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Thailand, China or any other country is imperative for saving on your business expenses. While most businesses that perform work and consultations internationally just assume they will have a large phone bill each month, there are ways to cut costs and save your business some money. As technology changes the way people communicate, your business can take advantage of voice over Internet protocol (VOIP), reduced rate text messaging, and reduced phone rates to save money. While large businesses may find it easier to negotiate a deal with their traditional phone service provider, smaller businesses with only a handful of employees may like working...
Herbalife - International Business - Is This Legal?
Is Herbalife a scam or is this a legal business opportunity? The reason for my doing this review was the fact that I wanted to look at a home business opportunity and did some background research on Herbalife to see if this was a suitable opportunity. Through the tragic death of his mother, who had desperately tried to lose weight and died through medication for weight loss, this set Mark Hughes on his quest to find a safe way to lose weight for many others. Herbalife International was founded in 1980, by Mark Hughes. Since then it has expanded and is now available in over 65 countries worldwide. They have over 1 million plus distributors who work both online and offline selling the products direct...
The US has become less expensive for expatriates relative to cities in Asia and Africa over the past year, says a cost of living comparison of 228 global cities. The cost of living comparison prices goods and services that expatriates spend their salaries on, and reports indexes for 13 different basket groups using New York (100) as the base. In terms of overall cost of living, New York is now the 28th most expensive global city and the 61st in terms of groceries. New York has dropped primarily due to the weakness of the US Dollar as well as the economic slowdown which appears to have slowed the increase in prices relative to other global cities. The global cost of living comparison conducted by...
Cultural Conflicts in International Business Negotiations
One day, a delegation from Dubai visited Company H. Mr. L, the chief representative of the company, received them. As the negotiation went on, Mr. L felt confused and bored because the Arabs asked for a break every hour. Then they went to toilet to wash their hands and faces. When they came back, they knelt down to pray. As there was no towel in the toilet, the Arabs prayed with wet hands and faces. Mr. L found himself in a dilemma, because he did not know whether he should withdraw from the scene or not. When it was time for lunch, the Arabs were treated to a rich dinner. When everyone was seated, the waitress started introducing the different dishes in English to the Arab visitors. They all looked...
Culture Shock and International Business - Tips for Women
If this is your first trip outside the U.S., you are probably looking forward to the new, exciting experiences that are in store for you. Unfortunately, when you arrive in your first foreign country, instead of feeling excited and full of energy, you may unexpectedly feel depressed, disoriented and lonely, especially if you are traveling alone. The greater the difference between this foreign culture and the American culture you're familiar with, the more pronounced these feelings might be. The technical term for this is "culture shock." For many Americans in foreign countries, the language barrier is often the most difficult issue to cope with. If you do not know some simple phrases in the language...
Professional Document Translation - Your International Business May Depend on It
Document translation is one of the most basic of all translation services, if not the most basic. This is not to say that document translation is simple, which is one of the big misconceptions that can lead to big losses for any business. Twenty years ago, if you needed a document translated from English to Spanish, or vice versa, you would find someone who understood both languages reasonably well and ask them to translate the document. Not surprisingly, as long as you chose someone who was relatively competent, this worked pretty well. But twenty years ago, more than likely your business future was not dependent upon the quality of the translation; that is not necessarily the case today. The...

Offshore Staffing And The Over-all Effects Of Globalization
the United states, the process of offshore staffing is a political matter that pushes on plenty of folks's nerves. Whether or not a business determines to outsource to the Philippines or to India, there are going to be people who believe it is to be a political issue. This really is to be envisioned, if one accepts that the practice could have an extremely enormous influence on business economics. It isn't just a single country's overall economy that might realize itself impacted by this procedure - at the very least, two individual economic climates will be influenced. Even so, on a much larger scale, wide-spread outsourcing additionally has effects on the world-wide economy as a whole. Among the...
The first question that comes to our mind is why is this documentation so important? Why change the way we've been doing it? This is the way I have always done it before. In my opinion as a custom broker, the invoice is the most important document to focus on when importing or exporting merchandise into any country. From this document Customs officials must determine proper classification of the merchandise, value, duties, collection of data, risk assessment, compliance and enforcement of regulations from other agencies. Also from the same document your custom broker must classify, valuate, pay duties and transmit information to customs based upon on this. In describing the merchandise, the most...

The EU and the WTO
The EU is one of the key players in the World Trade Organisation (WTO). This is because the EU has a common trade policy, where the European Commission negotiates on behalf of the Union 's 25 Member States. As such, the EU is one of the driving forces behind the current round of multilateral trade negotiations in the WTO, the Doha Development Agenda (DDA). The DDA comprises both further market opening and additional rule making, underpinned by commitments to take measures necessary to integrate developing countries into the world trading system, notably by strengthening assistance to build capacity. The main objective of the New Round is to put development at the heart of the world trade system in a...
Globalisation: the Coup de Grace
Everyone is currently at loggerheads about globalisation. But who actually appreciates its landscape? There is nothing new-fangled about globalisation as such. It can be seen everywhere. The events of 11 September instantaneously echoed across the world. But more importantly, their reasons and effects demonstrated that in the composition of everyday life. We are without doubt side by side not just in catastrophes, but in trading, financial markets and environmental change. However, the revolution in communications, media, and transportation systems are not just embellishments. They are re-creating the fundamentals of the way the world is doing business. So, what does that mean? The service sector...

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND THEORETICAL BACKGROUND Economists through out the world are searching for what really are the major determinants of growth of an economy and different policies have been used in pursuit of the answers. The world as large has gone through a lot of economic problems, such as depressions of 1930s, 1970s and 1980s. The 1930 depression led to employing of the Keynesian policies of strict government intervention. However, the 1970s depression made policy makers lose faith in Keynesian economics.

Standardization Or Adaptation - An Endless Debate
An Introduction International advertising was a concept introduced as back as in 1923 by a personality none other than the manager of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, David Brown. He was of the view that there existed the same humanitarian feeling in every soul round the globe. He wasn't aware of the complexities this idea consists of. After about three quarters of a century, the debate continues with Globalization supporting standardization and heterogeneity supporting adaptation. On the contrary, adaptation means to go accordingly. Companies are concerned with local issues in advertisement. They believe that not every country is developed to the same extent so there should be a difference in...
Global Slowdown - Aftermath and Anarchy
Have you ever realised that man remains generous and accommodating to his fellow beings only till the time he himself is well-heeled? Basically affluence is the breeding ground for magnanimity and philanthropy. And since nations are guided by men, you can expect similar behaviour from all nations. But what happens when nations themselves are ravaged by depredations of recession and economic collapse? In order to seek answer to this question we need to logically predict the turn of events from the symptoms as visible today. The first thing that this truly global recession will bring about is trade wars. It still hasn't started in full scale but the writing is on the wall. World Bank has recently...
South South Cooperation And Regional Integration: The Way Out Of Underdevelopment
The introduction of Africa in the world market started since the 15th century, could not in many respects be considered as a positive venture. Africa's backwardness compared to the rest of the world(developed countries, newly industrialised countries and emerging countries) which is a paradox due to its enormous resources and potential, clearly demonstrate that Africa remain the great loser of the international economic order. A situation worsened when considered the policies undertaken by developed countries: the creation of regional and non regional trade blocs, the protection of domestic markets through quotas. According to Gunnar Myrdal, the underdevelopped countries 'way of handling their...

NAFTA, The Good, The Best, and The Ugly For the Americas
NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, has been getting a lot of not so favorable, and sometimes, controversial headlines in recent years. Some critics blame it for the current labor shortages in the United States, due to the fact that most U.S. companies have been and continue to outsource and ship jobs overseas. While its proponents have been hailing it as a great success in helping lowering national prices on certain manufactured goods and services and that it has caused to increase wages for certain jobs within the U.S. In this document, we are going to explore the cons and pros of NAFTA. The author of the document has specifically selected this topic because of a familiar ground. Most...
Codex Alimentarius - Part Six - Final Summary
Europe is effectively the most influential entity at Codex and the EU Food Supplements Directive is essentially the de facto blueprint for the Codex Guidelines for vitamin and mineral supplements. As a result of international trade agreements such as the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS Agreement), Codex texts, guidelines and standards are effectively mandatory for all WTO Members. Additionally, as the WTO does not distinguish between guidelines and standards, and utilizes Codex texts to resolve international trade disputes, a finalised Codex text would likely have the ability to countermand the dietary supplement laws of all WTO member countries - overriding even the United States and its...

The announcement came as a surprise in South America where several regional FTAs are dying of neglect. Mercosur itself has been unable to settle trade...

Issues to Consider on Import-Export Business
No country, not even the superpowers can be totally independent and self-sustaining. Every country needs products, raw materials or supplies from other countries. They either use the products directly or produce other products from these raw materials which they eventually can sell to other countries. Every country is involved in import export transactions by buying what it needs and selling what it manufactures. With the formation of the World Trade Organization or WTO, import export trading has become more professional, fair, free and smooth. Member countries get the privilege of reduced tariff, lesser trade barriers, import quotas and restrictive policies. These are privileges which they in turn...
What Effects Did The Terrorist Attacks Of 9/11 Have On US Policy Towards The Caribbean?
The terrorist attacks of 2001 produced several marked alterations in the global foreign policy of the world's remaining superpower. The United States narrowed its definition of national security to focus predominantly on anti-terrorism, assessing most other policy priorities in terms of their perceived contribution to that overriding goal. The United States has also shown a new willingness to take the initiative in world affairs, sometimes leading to a unilateralism that irks some other nations. The application of these worldwide policies in sub-regions relatively divorced from major terrorist incidents such as the Caribbean can be unbending and severe. As a matter of fact, the impact of 9/11 on the...

A New Construct For Global Leadership
"The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority". ~ Ken Blanchard. Ideas are a form of power. Ideas that upset the applecart of conformity can be especially powerful. This message was driven home to me at a recent conference on the 'Power of Disruptive ideas' at Yale. The two-day conference, organized by a forward-thinking Swiss wealth management firm, offered a rare interface between private investors and eminent academics. I was there for the chance to straddle those two worlds and exchange ideas with leading thinkers whose goals are closely related to our New Constructs initiative.

India, Brazil And South Africa (IBSA) On A Path Breaking Mission In The New World Order

One component of these many recent initiatives is the idea of south-south cooperation The emergence of the transatlantic links between India, South Africa and Latin America began when the leaders of three countries, India's Vajpayee, Brazil's Lula, and South Africa's Mbeki spearheaded a new approach to south-south cooperation at the 2003 UN General Assembly Forum, resulting in a trilateral India-Brazil-South...
China and the Global Recession - Part II - Relations With the United States
In 2001, the Bush Administration characterized China as a "strategic competitor" to the United States. This may still be an accurate depiction of U.S. - Sino relations, at least as it applies to certain aspects of the multifarious relationship between the two nations. Financially, China and the U.S. have long been symbiotic. Despite the mutual benefits attained from this situation, there have been numerous points of contention, issues that have only been aggravated by the global financial crisis. The U.S. and China will have to find politically palatable ways to work though some of these differences, because the future economic viability of both nations depends on it.
