Hinweis der Redaktion
- Domestic business involves transactions occurring within the boundaries of a single country, while international business transactions cross national boundaries. In addition, the countries may use different currencies, forcing at least one party to convert its currency for another. The legal systems may vary or even be incompatible. The cultures may differ and the resources may vary. For example, one country may be rich in natural resources, but poor in skilled labor. Still, the basic skills and knowledge needed to be successful are generally similar whether one is doing business domestically or internationally.
- These three international business activities will be presented on the following slides.
- Large organizations are likely to have international operations or at least be affected by the global economy. Student may work for a company that is owned by a foreign subsidiary. Small businesses are growing their businesses by selling in foreign markets, using foreign-made materials, and competing with foreign firms. Studying international business helps students to compete with students from other countries. It is also important for staying abreast of the latest business techniques and tools, such as JIT systems. Lastly, studying international business helps students to become culturally literate, meaning that they can better understand and appreciate the similarities and differences of the world’s people.
