Emerging Markets Lectures



Emerging Markets Lectures
Lecture 1 – Introduction to Emerging Economies
Cons
- Extreme poverty and inequality
- Huge unmet demands but inadequate provisions

Pros
- Being new and raising new technologies; power of new technologies and innovations
- Aspirational population

Over time it can be seen that China and India had the largest share of
world GDP till 1700. The industrial revolution started and suddenly the
technology in the hands of Britain, US etc. made that they took over
the world economy (China almost gone). From 2000 the re-emergence
from China and Japan.


Strategic Decisions
Strategy: major decision, you only take it once in a while
depending on certain changes (acquiring another brand/firm).
Long-term oriented, goal-directed decision.
Tactic: small decision, 20% discount on certain products

When is the decision a strategic decision?
- Who is making the decision? CEO, CFO etc.: strategic
decisions.
- What is the scope of impact?
- Commitment: in terms of money
o Investments (big)
o Relationships (JVs)
o Promotions (ads)
o Policies and procedures (systems, structures)
- Scope of the firm:
o Where is your market, what kind of products?
o How will the decision have any impact on the
economic value of the value of the firm.

Strategy is the dynamics between ‘firm’ and its
‘environment (business, institutional, political etc.) due to
the ‘actions’ taken and the use of resources in order to
achieve goals (increase performance).

Naming Emerging Markets
- BRICS: Brazil, Russia, India, China
- MINT: Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, Turkey
- CIVETS: Colombia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Turkey, South Africa
- Emerging Markets
- Transition economies
- Newly industrialized economies

Common factors
1. Low income; low income per capita
2. Rapid Growth; high GDP growth (5% or higher), high economic growth rate
3. Undergone major market reforms or liberalization
o Reduced role of government (facilitator); competition is the leader and decides the regulation.
o Privatization of SOEs (state owned enterprise)
o Lowered barriers to trade and investment
o Level playing field for business activities; everyone gets the same treatment, laws and
regulations are the same for all the firms in the particular market.

FDI going into emerging countries is
increasingly going up, FDI out of emerging
markets has risen but is still dominated by
developed countries.

2014: shrinking of economic growth Europe.

Emerging countries cannot take it for granted
that they keep growing. E.g. Brazil, South
Africa, Venezuela. The growth markets are
dynamic and constant evaluation is needed.

What makes emerging markets unique for
business?
Pros:
- Huge unmet demand for products, services and technology.
- Young and growing population: tremendous opportunities for growth
- Heterogeneous market segments: something for everyone. So much difference in terms of choice
and preferences.
- Low cost and skilled labour: global production centre.
- Unique conditions: new frontiers for innovation. New requirements of consumers

Cons:
- Difficult and unstable market conditions; no first mover advantage
- Poor infrastructure and information flows
- Heterogeneous demand: hard to focus on several products, you cannot easily push costs down.
- High income inequality
- Huge intra-national diversity: e.g. 23 languages in India.
