...Principles of Globalization Globalization is a process of collaboration and amalgamation among different cultural groups, a process driven by trade, investment and the advancement of technology. It creates a world where everyone is united and there is a single culture flowing through many different lifestyles, effecting environment, political systems, economic development and prosperity, and the physical well-being of individuals (www.globalization101.org). The concept of globalization has been in act for many years, however recently, the severity of the merging cultures is becoming much more apparent. There are many types of globalization, each focusing on a different aspect in today’s current world issues. Economic globalization refers to the integration of multinational and transnational companies around the world, the seek of global markets and the idea that more global wealth is needed. Moreover, technological globalization refers to the explosive growth of communications over the past 5 decades and how it is thoroughly spreading to many parts of the world. Through both of these types of globalization, we develop the cultural aspect of globalization, defining the harmonization of the world’s cultures to create a single union. It is inevitable that the world will eventually merge and be entirely westernized, however it is solely a question of whether or not this is a positive movement. The Main Players The never ending expansion of technology has drastically taken...

...financing Chapter 1: Background of the Study 1.1 Introduction The international trade activities are grown day by day. This trend is attributable to the increased globalization of the world economies and the availability of trade payment and finance from the international banking community. Although banks also finance domestic trade, their role in financing international trade and payment system is more critical due to the additional complications involved. First, the exporter might question the importer’s ability to make payment. Second, even if the importer is creditworthy, the government might impose exchange controls that prevent payment to the exporter. Third, the importer might not trust the exporter to ship the goods ordered. Fourth, even if the exporter does ship the goods, trade barriers or time lags in international transportation might delay arrival time. Financial managers must recognize methods that they can use to make payment and finance international trade so that they can conduct exporting or importing in a manner that maximizes the value of a business. In any international trade transaction, credit is provided by the exporter, the importer, one or more financing institutions, or any combination of these. The supplier may have sufficient cash flow to finance the entire trade cycle, beginning with the production of the product until payment is eventually made by the buyer. In some cases, the exporter may require bank financing to augment its cash flow...

...BUSINESS ORGANIZATION MANAGEMENT NOKIA NAME: SHALINI DEVI A/P MANOHARAN ID NUM: DCA 07-04101148 LEC NAME: MR SELVAMATHAN SUBMISSION DATE: 28 MAY 2012 TABLE OF CONTENT INTODUCTION Nokia is a multinational corporation engaged in the manufacturing of mobile phones devices, in converging internet and communication industries, having about 132,000 employees working worldwide. The organization is the World’s largest mobile manufacturing company and is operational is 150 different countries having an approximate global annual sales revenue of ¼ 42 billion and operating profit of ¼ 2 billion in the preceding year 2010. The organization has a market share of about 28.9% as of the preceding year 2010 and is still the market leader in the world of mobile phones. Nokia Corporation has a history of 146 years and it wasn't the way it is today, it took Nokia decades to reach at this point. The first Nokia century began with Fredrik Ides tam’s paper mill on the banks of the Nokian virtual River. Between 1865 and 1967, the company would become a major industrial force, but it took a merger with a cable company and a rubber firm to set the new Nokia Corporation on the path to electronics. From 1968-91, the newly formed Nokia Corporation was ideally positioned for a pioneering role in the early evolution of mobile communications. As European telecommunications markets were deregulated and mobile networks became global, Nokia led the way with some iconic products. In 1992, Nokia decided...

...Chapter INTRODUCTION 1.1 Livelihood of the majority of the population of the Jammu & Kashmir State revolves around the agriculture and allied sectors. These sectors constitute the mainstay of the State’s economy and contribute nearly 50 per cent to GSDP. Over 70 per cent of the population, of more than 1.25 crores depends, directly or indirectly, on agriculture and its allied sectors. The diversification in the physiographic features and agro-climatic variation at macro- and micro-level, involving cold arid, temperate, intermediate and sub-tropical zones, within a small geographical area of 2.22 lakh sq. km indicates the inherent agricultural potential of the State. The net sown area (NSA) of 7.35 lakh ha (2009-10) is 35 per cent of the reported area as against the national average of 46 per cent. About 70 per cent of the net sown area is under the food crops. The average size of holding is very small (0.545 ha/holding) as compared to 1.66 ha at the national level with more than 93% of owners of these farm holdings subsisting on agriculture and allied activities. 1.2 Over the years, agriculturists and farmers have adopted several area- specific and time-specific cultivation practices to meet the requirement of their staple food crops. Rice, maize, wheat, pulses, fodder, oilseeds, potato and barley are the main crops of the State. There is currently a shift towards cultivating lowvolume high-value cash crops, such as, flowers, vegetables, quality seeds, aromatic & medicinal plants...
