Executive summary
The concept of a multinational enterprise (MNE) business amination has gained
prominence over the past few years in the field of management. In this regard,
multinational corporations exist in several different forms, including some
international mutual funds that invest in corporations overseas for diversification
purposes. Over the past several decades, research on multinational companies'
(MNEs') strategies has been heavily anchored in the internalization theory. It mainly

framework in the Nigerian energy sector. From the report, it can be viewed that the
economic integration of Nigeria adds on the success factors for Shell as it created
more opportunities and business for the company. However, there are high currency
risks in Nigeria which require the company to improve on its financial management
capabilities for long term success.

international market entry process, Shell employs different modes of market
development to gain and enlarge its share in the local market. Archer (2014) reveals
that most of its mode choices based on different situations are appropriate and
