Defining EMs
Emerging markets: countries experiencing a transition phase from developing markets
to developed markets due to rapid growth and industrialization
Features:
- Started an economic reform process aimed at alleviating problems, e.g., poverty,
poor infrastructure, and overpopulation
- Achieved a steady growth in GDP per capita
- Increased integration in the global economy
- New challenges: economic growth slow down, political uncertainty
Institutional features in EMs
- Challenges in EMs:
o Uncertainty
o Information asymmetry
o High transaction cost
o Lengthy bureaucratic process
o Relationship-based transaction
Negative externality
Exclude everyone who isn’t in the relationship
Not based on the competition or the capabilities
o Buyer and seller are not easily or efficiently able to come together
But why should we still do business in EMs?
, Lot of issues in EM (huge inflation, government power, lots of money, unemployment)
But high growth
OECD video:
Growth stronger and faster in emerging markets than in the developed countries of the
OECD
China which produces 17% of global GDP today is expected to pass the US and become
the world’s biggest economy with 28% of the global GDP in 2030
China and emerging countries’ fast development will be driven by a better educated and
more productive workforce
Learning achievements: example

and challenges

EMs?
- Develop analytical and creative skills to support decision-making in these contexts

business partners?
