Paper Abstract:
Overview of Mexico as Big Emerging Market in globalization process for purpose of exporting banking software from U.S.
Paper Introduction:
Introduction
Much attention has been given to the globalization of trade, with trade pacts being signed among European nations (the European Community), North American nations (the North American Free Trade Agreement) and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) which evolved into the World Trade Organization (WTO). There are numerous reasons why American companies are eager to conduct business in other countries: diversification of risk, increased revenues and greater market presence are three. Choosing which countries in which to operate is a critical part of the decision making process when companies decide to go international, and some analysts have identified ten nations as Big Emerging Markets (BEMs). This research considers one BEM, Mexico, and the strategies for exporting banking software to that country.
