Description for case is given below :
Mexico had a history of repeated financial crises, with high inflation leading to current account deficits with volatile capital inflows, culminating in significant devaluations. Concerns persisted that this pattern might repeat itself in the future. In the years prior to 1980, the government of Mexico had put in place a command and control economy with an extensive array of regulations through which it intervened in the economy on an ongoing basis and with discretionary powers. Governments created barriers to entry for foreign investment and imports and put in place price controls that protected existing Mexican firms. After 1980, a series of trade and investment reforms opened the economy. Nevertheless, many expressed the view that Mexico’s reform movement stalled under President Fox (2000-2006) and that extensive government intervention continued to stifle competition. Exhibits present macroeconomic data as well as World Bank Investment Climate Indicators. A series of challenges now confronted Mexico, including the U.S. financial crisis and recession, competition with China, appropriate monetary policy, opening oil production to foreign companies and a rise in corruption and violent crime.

Case Solution for China’s Trade Disputes

Case Name :      China’s Trade Disputes
Authors :           David W. Conklin, Danielle Cadieux

Discipline :        Business & Government Relations
Case Length :    17 pages

Description for case is given below :
By 2009, China’s exports had increased dramatically from $250 billion in 2000 to a projected $1,500 billion in 2009. This enormous growth of exports severely damaged competing businesses in the advanced nations, particularly the United States and Europe. China’s entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 guaranteed China’s right to export to these nations, but at the same time the WTO required China to adhere to certain rules that sought to support fair trade and create a level playing field. Several broad subjects each gave rise to a series of trade disputes: the protection of intellectual property, health and safety concerns about China’s products, labour and environmental standards, China’s manipulation of their currency, and costs and prices determined by the government rather than free markets. This case examines each set of trade disputes and China’s attempts to resolve them. Many disputes were embedded in cultural practices and ideological positions and so they might not disappear quickly. Shortcomings in China’s legal and judicial system hampered enforcement. In addition, many rested on the government’s desire to protect the interestsof Chinese businesses and their employees, and so China might alter its practices only if confronted with credible retalitory threats. China’s central government experienced the “principal-agent” problem where its wishes and decisions could be ignored by local governments and firms. Meanwhile, changes in industry structure within the advanced nations were altering the negotiation positions of Western governments. The case examines the WTO dispute resolution procedures and enforcement mechanisms that have been directed at China’s trade disputes.

Description for case is given below :
For 200 years, there were substantial differences among U.S. regions in per capita incomes and economic growth. Each region had a distinct set of economic activities and, to a major degree, the differences in regional economic performance were linked to the differences in economic structure. Individual states experienced periods of expansion and contraction as the basic business activities dominating their economy expanded and contracted. These changes led to significant migration of people and businesses among regions and to a gradual narrowing, since the 1930s, of regional disparities. Over the period of 1990 to 2007, the United States experienced outstanding economic success. Many analysts expressed the view that this economic success rested on consistently high productivity growth. The public philosophy supported low taxes and low government expenditure for health, education and welfare, with a heavy reliance on the need for each individual to succeed on one’s own. In the second half of the 20th century, a general recognition developed that knowledge has a major impact on economic growth, and that increasingly intense international competition is based upon knowledge and innovation. Each nation, as well as each region within a nation, has a distinct “innovation system.” At the forefront has been the United States. By the fall of 2008, it was clear that the United States had entered a major financial and economic crisis, and that reforms might be needed to achieve recovery and to prevent a recurrence.

Case Solution for PharmaPlus in Hungary
Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      PharmaPlus in Hungary
Authors :           David W. Conklin, Jeffrey Gandz, Trevor Hunter
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            98G002
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    25 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
In 1997, a Hungarian pharmaceuticals producer/wholesaler is attempting to enter the retail “drugstore” industry, an industry that does not yet exist in Hungary. Hungary has strict laws defining what can be sold in a pharmacy and a “druggery,” (which are two separate entities), yet PharmaPlus, (no connection with the North American chain Pharma Plus Drugmart), is attempting to combine the two with its one existing store. Management of PharmaPlus is facing opposition from the regulatory body of pharmacists, which has authority over a pharmacy’s operations and the stakeholders in the current industry structure, despite having the support of the Minister of Health and strong evidence that the concept is popular with customers. The case deals with issues of lobbying the stakeholders who have power, finding a sustainable competitive advantage in a market that has never seen this type of business, the idea of a global concept of service, shaping an industry to one’s own advantage, an industry of pure competition (many players), potential international expansion, and the impact of Hungary entering the EU.

Multimedia Development Corporation was established to build and regulate the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) in Malaysia. As Malaysia’s traditional manufacturing advantage due to low-cost labor dissipated and as the country targeted the year 2020 for achieving developed status, the MSC was being viewed as the catalyst to launch the Malaysian economy into the future. Malaysia’s government hoped the MSC could become a hub for high technology in Southeast Asia. It was now necessary to involve private sector corporations in refining the MSC concept, setting priorities for development, and establishing the standards that would be imposed on activities in the MSC.

Case Name :      General Motors: Acting Strategically?
Authors :           David W. Conklin, Danielle Cadieux
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            905M59
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    22 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
General Motors (GM) had a history of bold strategies in a wide variety of areas, including the creation of Saturn, the development of global operations, and the formation of strategic alliances with Fiat, SAIC, and Daewoo. Nonmarket strategies included pursuing government financial assistance, coping with new environmental regulations, and agreeing to very expensive health care and pension schemes. Meanwhile, GM had failed to create strategies to compete effectively with foreign automakers. By 2005, many of GM’s strategic decisions seemed to have been inappropriate. Some that were undertaken for short-term gain had disastrous long-term consequences, and GM performed poorly compared with other global automakers. Many strategies had seemed disconnected, lacking an overall vision or purpose: GM was facing a serious crisis. In 2005-2006, GM introduced several new strategies. Whether these strategies could achieve sustainable profitability, or whether they would also bring undesirable consequences, was a subject of importance to employees, shareholders, and governments throughout the world.

Case ID :            99M022
Discipline :        General Management
Case Length :    17 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
Like many other financial institutions, ING faces the challenges and opportunities of globalization. This case examines financial integration within the European Union, the attempt to harmonize regulations and the creation of a single currency. The Basle Accord establishes international standards for a financial institution’s capital as a percentage of loans. There is currently an attempt to modify these standards to reflect the differences in risk associated with different types of assets. The case also examines emerging markets and the foreign exchange crises that repeatedly impact these countries. Finally, the case examines the shift towards electronic commerce and the possibility of entering new markets without having to build or acquire physical facilities. Students are encouraged to analyze these basic changes in the environment of business and to consider how these changes may impact the globalization strategy of a financial institution.

Description for case is given below :
For General Motors (GM), the year 2004 brought a wide variety of new challenges that added to an already complex business environment. The industry structure was changing quickly. Demand and supply projections for motor vehicles had promised substantial increases in sales and profits, but suddenly the optimism faded. China’s new membership in the World Trade Organization created expectations of a level playing field for foreign investors, but – at least in the short run – major barriers remained. Government intervention persisted, particularly the requirement of a joint venture partner, competition from government-owned assembly firms, and arbitrary rules such as sector-specific credit restrictions. Violation of intellectual property, with the copying of foreign automobile designs and false-branding of parts, was an ongoing threat. Also, inflation was increasing and the government was unsure whether and how to use monetary and fiscal policies. The government had purposely kept the renminbi undervalued for many years. Pressure was building for the government to change its foreign exchange rate policy, but a higher renminbi would suddenly decrease GM China’s international competitiveness.
