Many banks and investment organizations start have difficult time finding money due to massive losses in mortgage. This also caused slow down the housing market, growth of new home building and putting many people in unemployment environment. Depressed housing prices made many homes worth much less than the mortgage value therefore some owners chose just walk away instead of pay their mortgage.

After ending Mughol regime when British came in Sub continent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) they started to do business, they exploited the sub-continent. They did not establish any Industry which is helpful to remove the unemployment problem. Though some Industry was made but all of them were placed in Indian Territory. So Bangladesh region was neglected from the British period. After ending British rule in 1947 Pakistan adopted the same rule they established all kinds of Industry in West Pakistan not in East Pakistan. As a result of Pakistani monopoly rule we saw the freedom fighting war in 1971. After nine months continuous war it is divided and named East Pakistan as a Bangladesh. After 1971...

...and disadvantages in general of firms in a horizontally integrated (or focused) sector against those in more diversified businesses which are vertically integrated or conglomerates. In this report, I will be analysing and comparing how these integrations are being effectively deployed by various organisations in order to have the edge above their competitors in the sector. The second part of this report will focus on the clear definition of the types of business integration discussed as well as giving examples of each type. With the aim of using numerous examples and case studies, to show how these organisations are using the integration to gain more control and less competition in their sector. Horizontal Integration Horizontal Integration, according to Investopedia, this is defined as “When a company expands its business into different products that are similar to current lines”. However there are so many definitions to define horizontal integration but one thing all the definitions have in common is the coming together of two or more companies with the aim of becoming the dominant force in the sector and also generating more profit with less input compared to when these companies operate separately, but this is be done under single ownership and control. Another definition of horizontal integration is “the merger of companies at the same stage of production in the same or different sectors”. (Business Dictionary). If the end products of the merging companies are similar...

MG ROVER SEEKS BANKRUPTCY In its lifespan of over a century, MG Rover Group Limited (MG Rover), one of the oldest and largest automobile manufacturers in the UK, went through countless mergers, takeovers and partnerships. The last merger negotiations the company went through before it folded up, took place in June 2004. This time MG Rover was negotiating with China‟s Shanghai Automotive Industrial Corporation (SAIC)3 to sell 70 per cent of its equity stake to SAIC. These negotiations were critical for MG Rover‟s survival, given the fact that it had been a chronic loss maker since the mid-1970s. If the deal materialized, MG Rover was to develop a new car model in collaboration with SAIC in an effort to pull up its falling sales. However, SAIC required MG Rover to be solvent at the time of signing the deal...

...City Magistrate and a prominent member of the tradition-bound British community, looks askance at the enthusiastic Adela’s curiosity about the local customs and people. She and Mrs Moore make friends with DR AZIZ, a handsome widower, and FIELDING, the outspoken principal of the British college. Aziz invites his new friends on a picnic expedition to view the famous Marabar caves in the hills outside the city. He goes to extravagant lengths to impress them, including the hiring of an elephant, but the day ends in chaos when Adela claims to have been assaulted in one of the caves by Dr Aziz. She is rushed back to Chandrapore as Aziz is arrested and thrown into jail to await trial. Certain that his friend is innocent, Fielding joins Aziz’s friends in an attempt to exonerate him but they are met with resistance at every turn by the irate British community, who close ranks around Adela. A strong case is built against Aziz and his defence becomes a rallying point for the burgeoning Independence Movement. Mrs Moore, who wants no part of the proceedings, leaves the city and dies in her railway carriage. With the future of the British Raj at stake, all eyes are on Chandrapore as the trial opens. As Adela is being led through the specifics of the fateful day, she backs down and refuses to name Aziz as her assailant, claiming that he is innocent. It is a total vindication for Aziz and a humiliating defeat for the local British establishment, who are all either recalled or forced to resign...
