,Theme 1 - Core IB Theories
Traditionally, international business (IB) is defined as a business or firm that
engages in international economic activities
IB is about managing complexity and uncertainty
o Cross border activity brings new challenges
o Requiring awareness and strategic thinking
Core theories of international business
o At the country level
o At the firm level
o At the subsidiary level (daughter company)
Resource-based View of IB
Institutional-based View of IB
Value Chains
We can look at an industry’s and a company’s value chain
The different business functions and the different stages where they add
value
Michael Porter’s value
chain
Primary
activities –
where a product
is built, and
value is added
o
Remember-
a
company
is not just
one
block,
there are
multiple
departments that each have different functions
Value chain and the Boundary of the Firm
, Boundary of the firm – what does the firm do itself and what does someone
else do
o A firm that has all the activities within in its own firm, like marketing,
distribution etc.
Otherwise, you can outsource some of these activities – e.g., logistics or final
assembly.
o Like Heineken outsourcing the creative aspect of their marketing to
TBWA
And their social media content to Boomerang
The International Industry Value Chain
With IB they have the whole world to move their value chain around
From ‘centre of gravity’ to vertical integration
Where are the ‘profit pools’, and where does a company have strategic
capabilities?
Where to expand, where to divest?
What local market factors/institutions enter these decisions?
Outsourcing vs. FDI
Outsourcing: turning over an organizational activity to an outside supplier
that will perform it on behalf of the focal firm
o Offshore: outsourcing to a firm abroad
o Onshore: outsourcing to a domestic firm
Outsourcing is in contrast to FDI where you set up subsidiaries abroad and
the work is done “in-house”, but the location is overseas
Value chain
Think in terms of Apple
o The products are designed in California, here a lot of value is added to
the product
o The final assembly however is in China, this is outsourced because it
is much cheaper
The company that handles this is Foxconn
Also, Apple advertising, this is typically outsourced
Think also of iPhone cases, these are produced by all kinds of different
companies – these fall outside of Apple’s value chain
What is a MNE (TNC, MNC)?
MNE = A company that engages in international (cross-border) economic
activities
Transnational Corporation’s (TNCs) = incorporated or unincorporated
enterprises comprising parent enterprises and their foreign affiliates
A parent enterprise is defined as an enterprise that controls assets of
other entities in countries other than its home country, usually by
owning a certain equity capital stake
