Obviously, multinational corporations can provide developing countries with critical financial infrastructure for economic and social development. But, these may also bring with them relaxed codes of ethical conduct that serve to exploit the neediness of developing nations, rather than to provide the critical support necessary for countrywide economic and social development. When a multinational invests in a host country, the scale of the investment (given the size of the firms) is likely to be significant. Indeed governments will often offer incentives to firms in the form of grants, subsidies and tax breaks to attract investment into their countries. This foreign direct investment (FDI) will have advantages and disadvantages for the host country. There are some advantages while facing the multinational corporation. One of the primary advantages that multinational companies enjoy over companies that limit their operations to smaller geographical regions is that they have a larger pool of potential customers. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration...

...(FIIs). Although FIIs have contributed to the Indian economy, in more ways than one, but still they have not been able to earn the respect for themselves as they should be. RBI and SEBI, every now and then, are bothered about their activities and moves that might affect the economy and the markets adversely. The recently out, Lahiri Committee Report, also lays emphasis on participatory notes, its role and functioning. The question that arises in a person’s mind is that what is a participatory note, how it functions, and why is it famous for its notoriety, etc. We will try to seek the answers of the above said questions and various other aspects of participatory notes in the following discussion. What are participatory notes? In the magazine, Business World, dated December 15th, 2003, the feature on participatory note stated that, “The past month has seen our stock market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), nervously rattling its...

...Chapter 1: Introduction 1.0. Introduction The term “foreign exchange” basically refers to buying the currency of one country while selling the currency of another country. All nations have their own, different kinds of money (currency). This has existed throughout the ages, probably since the time of the Babylonians. As trading developed between nations, the need to convert one kind of money to another also developed. This is how a formal system of foreign exchange arose. As trade between nations developed, Britain, as the nation with the largest and strongest navy, could spread its commercial interests far and wide. It therefore became the most active trading nation, with a vast empire of colonies. As a result, Britain’s currency, the pound sterling, became a benchmark to which other currencies were compared (and exchanged) for most of the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Today, most currencies are compared to the U.S. Dollar, currently the most active and commercially strong trading nation; many currencies are still “pegged” to the U.S. Dollar for their exchange rate. Because FX risks can be identified, they can be managed. Foreign exchange management requires that governments, companies, and individuals understand the factors that influence the valuation of currency. By identifying these factors, they can enter into transactions that mitigate the risks to acceptable levels. These transactions, or hedge positions, are designed to maximize the economic...

...Chapter One Introduction 1.1 INTRODUCTION Foreign exchange refers to the financial transaction where currency value of one country is traded into another country’s currency. The whole process gets done by a network of various financial institutions like banks, investors and governments. The exchange rate varies according to the value of each country’s currency which is based on the health of that particular country’s economy. Any individual or company engaged in overseas business should be aware of the risks of currency fluctuations. Customers without commercial contracts expressed in domestic currency (or fixed by an agreed rate of exchange) are fully exposed to what is known as an exchange risk. Exchange risk may arise because of exchange rate movements in the period from the original commercial contract, to the time of settlement of the domestic equivalent of the foreign currency amount. Foreign exchange risk management is designed to preserve the value of currency inflows, investments and loans, while enabling international businesses to compete abroad. Although it is impossible to eliminate all risks, negative exchange outcomes can be anticipated and managed effectively by individuals and corporate entities. Businesses do so by becoming familiar with the typical foreign exchange risks, demanding hard currency, diversifying properly and employing hedging strategies. No countries of the world can produce all their necessary commodities and services. So it has to buy the commodities...
