...Narayana Hrudayalaya Heart Hospital Cardiac Care for the Poor Executive Summary The public health care system in India has long been a major issue for the country. Many citizens have been unable to receive the proper health care due to high costs and the inability to reach a capable hospital. Dr. Shetty has founded the Narayana Hrudayalaya Heart Hospital as a solution to this major issue. Utilizing a cost leadership strategy, he has been able to significantly reduce the costs of cardiac procedures. By implementing a government funded insurance scheme, he has also allowed more people than ever to have access to this health care. As the hospital has grown in success, Dr. Shetty has expanded his operations to reach a larger portion of India and to include a more diverse range of procedures. Having built a strong foundation, Dr. Shetty has set his hospital up well to expand globally. Background The Narayana Hrudayalaya Heart Hospital is in Bengaluru, India where it aims to service a higher than traditional percentage of the population. One of India’s biggest problems lies within its public healthcare system. In 2003, India had a growing population of 1.03 billion, making it the second large country in the world. Within this population, the wealth is not skewed evenly compared to most first world countries. It is estimated the top 20% of the population holds half of the country’s wealth, while leaving more than 250 million below the poverty line. To make matters...

...Creating a sense of mission. As we’ve observed, Indian leaders have long been involved in societal issues, preemptively investing in community services and infrastructure. Mallika Srinivasan, the director of Tractors & Farm Equipment, told us that almost everywhere companies operate in India they are encircled by throngs of destitute people, needs are stark, and government intervention is inadequate. Like Infosys and many other big companies, Tractors & Farm Equipment maintains a first-world, campuslike facility within sight of third- world slums. “Corporate social responsibility and good governance are related to the state of the development of the country,” she told us. “We are all seeing these islands of prosperity surrounded by so much poverty.” Echoing a sentiment we heard from many executives, Srinivasan explained that her company feels duty bound to step forward. Some of this CSR is driven by necessity, of course; national well-being and investment in social goals and human capital are essential to companies’ competitiveness. The rapid growth of the Indian market and the inadequate scale of health and education systems have forced companies to develop and help care for their own talent. Social investment pays off in other ways, too. For B. Muthuraman, the managing director of Tata Steel, CSR is a reputational asset. “Our history in corporate social responsibility,” he acknowledges, “has enhanced the group brand.” And for some, acting responsibly in the eyes...

...Medical Tourism Industry - Advantage India C.B. Venkata Krishna Prasad* Traveling abroad for health is not a new phenomenon. Medical tourism is actually thousands of years old. In ancient Greece, pilgrims and patients came from all over the Mediterranean to the sanctuary of the healing god, asklepios; the god of healing was located at Epidaurus. In roman Britain, patients took the waters at a shrine at bath, a practice that continued for 2,000 years. During 18th century wealthy Europeans used to visit health resorts in North Africa. But in the past seven years or so, the movement has accelerated sharply. It is growing rapidly and turning out to be an immense business opportunity for nations which have the strategic advantage of having resources in terms of medical technology, infrastructure and right human resources. Cross-border travel for health reasons is a $40 billon market and growing at over 15% a year throws up huge opportunities for anyone smart enough to tap it. Broadly defined as a collaboration of medical services with the tourism industry, healthcare tourism offers cost effective medical services for individuals who cannot afford these services in their country due to high costs or to people who are tired by long waiting times. Also patients from countries, where treatment is not available, can avail the benefits of healthcare tourism. Countries that are actively promoting healthcare tourism include Belgium, Singapore, Malaysia, India, Thailand, Cuba, Costa Rica,...

...International Trade Beverly Richard Argosy University International Trade The trade agreements with China offer countries preferential access to the vast Chinese market while accepting low labor and environmental standards U.S. FTAs, on the other hand, raise standards across the board and help U.S. businesses export to foreign markets while still producing goods here U.S. foreign direct investment in FTA partner countries shows little to no charge after completion of a trade agreement. However, China’s completion of trade agreement increases U.S. FDI in China’s FTA partners (The Economic Benefits of U.S. Trade, 2015). The United States economy has been threatening in growth and stability due to the China’s dollar reserves in its trade surplus. China’s policy of keeping the Yuan understated leads to a fairly large dollar and the rise of trade deficits. The trade deficits are arouse by industry leaders to elevate pressure for protectionist U.S. trade policies (The Economic Benefits of U.S. Trade, 2015). Meanwhile there has been a concern that the United States can continue to depend on China to gain debt as a U.S. deficits. The trade balance between China and the U.S. for the most recent five year period is as following: 2010 : U.S. trade in goods with China Month | Exports | Imports | Balance | January 2010 | 6,898.4 | 25,215.9 | -18,317.6 | February 2010 | 6,840.2 | 23,342.8 | -16,502.6 | March 2010 | 7,400.8 | 24,292.2 | -16,891.4 | ...

...development of the XML module. They realize that we are a responsive solution provider!” The team cheers and applauds Todd. An earlier moment in the week had been really tense. The previous Monday, 09:00 PST: an intense brainstorming teleconference between the offshore team in Bangalore, and Todd. The client, a media and entertainment giant in the US, has had a sudden change in requirement. Prasad, the delivery manager, points out, “Todd, given the new emphasis for an open architecture, we will have to replace the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) module with one based on XML standards.” Todd queries, “That sounds tricky. Can we start on a new module at this stage and still meet the deadline?” “Yes, but we will need our teams of EDI and XML experts working on it simultaneously both from India and the US,” says Prasad. After a week of late night and early morning conference calls, the Infosys team has conceptualized and developed a simple and effective solution. The client thanks Todd, “Your solution delivers just the interoperable architecture we wanted.” Todd conveys the good news to Prasad and then heads out to celebrate with his team. A short while later, he drives home battling the dense LA traffic. After a tense yet fulfilling week, he is really looking forward to whale watching during his weekend sail! It is Friday, and the Infosys Southern California team is celebrating the week’s achievements. Todd MacCallum addresses the gathering, “Folks, yet another notch in our belt...

...Introduction Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB), the Central Bank of Nepal, was established in 1956 under the Nepal Rastra Bank Act, 1955, to discharge the central banking responsibilities including guiding the development of the embryonic domestic financial sector. Since inception, there has been a significant growth in both the number and the activities of the domestic financial institutions. To reflect this dynamic environment, the functions and objectives of the Bank have been recast by the new NRB Act of 2002, the preamble of which lays down the primary functions of the Bank as: * to formulate necessary monetary and foreign exchange policies to maintain the stability in price and consolidate the balance of payments for sustainable development of the economy of Nepal; * to develop a secure, healthy and efficient system of payments; * to make appropriate supervision of the banking and financial system in order to maintain its stability and foster its healthy development; and * to further enhance the public confidence in Nepal's entire banking and financial system. The Bank is eminently aware that, for the achievement of the above objectives in the present dynamic environment, sustained progress and continued reform of the financial sector is of utmost importance. Continuously aware of this great responsibility, NRB is seriously pursuing various policies, strategies and actions, all of which are conveyed in the annual report on monetary policy. Vision To...

...evidence of China's emergence as a global economic powerhouse are these twin facts: a large foreign exchange reserve that China is holding, especially in dollar-denominated assets, and a large amount of foreign direct investment (FDI) going into China that rivals FDI into the United States. A popular (and politically charged) explanation for these facts runs as follows: China's rapid rise in the foreign exchange reserve is a consequence of its mercantilist policy, exporting like mad by relying on a deliberately undervalued currency, cheap labor, and foreign investors, particularly those from the United States. But in The Chinese Approach to Capital Inflows: Patterns and Possible Explanations (NBER Working Paper No. 11306), authors Eswar Prasad and Shang-Jin Wei suggest that the reasons behind China's increased foreign exchange reserve and its success at attracting FDI -- as opposed to more volatile financial and equity markets --are too complex for this kind of simple theory. They argue that the mercantilist explanation is an "intriguing story, but the facts do not support it." To start with, they note that more than 87 percent of the acceleration in the increase in China's foreign reserve holding from the period 1988-2000 to the period 2001-4 can be explained by a surge in non-FDI type of capital inflows (sometimes called "hot money"), including a dramatic reversal of capital flight. Only 13 percent of the increment can be attributed to an increase in the current account surplus...

...employees’ petty, childlike behaviour and their inability to understand the necessary decisions that manager’s make for the good of the whole organization. Critically discuss this statement, drawing upon course readings that engage with the issue of employee resistance. Introduction In the following essay I am going to argue that conflict at work stems from managers decisions to control and dominate the lives of its employees, as it misuses the power relationship in an attempt to enhance its control. I will discuss the article by (Prasad and Prasad 2000), (Clegg, Kornberger and Pitsis 2008) and (Knights and Roberts 1982) to demonstrate this point. I also argue that conflict stems from attempts by employees to counteract the domination of basic human qualities such as feelings and emotions as they act in an attempt to restore dignity within their lives. I will do this with reference to texts by (Cohen and Taylor 1992), (Prasad and Prasad 2000), (Knights and Collinson 1987) and (Roberts 1984). As organisations are clearly places of domination I argue the importance of conflict within society to inhibit organisations exploiting and manipulating its employees and society at large. For this argument I will use texts by (Morgan 2006), (Baken 2004), (Rothschild and Miethe 1994) and (Blau 1963). Through the use of (Milgrams 1974) text I will argue the detrimental effects of obedience, with reference to the Nazi occupation of Europe, and thus the need for conflict within organisations...

...THE LAST WORD PRASAD KAIPA NAVI RADJOU | CEO ADVISOR AND COACH | FELLOW | JUDGE BUSINESS SCHOOL, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE “Companies mustshut down theirCSR departments” They should instead focus on re-engineering value chains to bring sustainability in their business models, Kaipa and Radjou tell Rohit Nautiyal DALIP KUMAR away with the CSR department by rolling sustainability in the firm’s business model. New KPIs (key performance indicators) were introduced so senior managers could take the right kind of decisions that contribute towards water conservation which eventually helped the firm save money and pass the benefit to consumers. Not to mention, this initiative helped Florida Ice & Farm become environment friendly. Unilever’s CEO Paul Polman wants to double the company’s revenues and reduce the environment impact by 50 per cent. Both the examples explain how this schizophrenia (increasing profitability and creating a moniker like CSR) can be eradicated by finding a noble purpose. Companies must walk the talk by getting over with PR exercises on CSR initiatives and focus on re-engineering their value chains. So what you are essentially saying is that overhauling one’s business purpose can be a solution for the ongoing CSR debate. Prasad: Yes. Let us try and understand this with an example. As part of its product portfolio, PepsiCo sells both obesity inducing drinks and healthy products. Hypothetically if they choose to do a CSR initiative in schools, distributing...
