Firms in emerging markets have traditionally followed one of two strategies to catch up with multinational enterprises (MNEs): developing customized products, services, or innovative business models or buying and absorbing technology from MNEs. In the era of globalization, these strategies are no longer effective. The new strategy to succeed is innovation-based differentiation, developing core technologies and advanced product offerings that are delivered at a low cost and with excellent customer service. Using this strategy, leading local firms are quickly catching up with MNEs in market development, technology development, or both.

The previous decade has been characterized by emerging market firms expanding into international markets. This trend has led to scholars in the IB arena to grapple with the new phenomenon of emerging multinational enterprises (EMNEs), specifically the relationship between internationalization and performance of the EMNEs. This paper seeks to add to the literature by capturing the impact of firm resources on the internationalization-performance relationship. Empirical analysis on a sample of 787 Indian manufacturing firms indicates that there is a non-linear relationship between internationalization and performance. Findings also indicate that a firm's capabilities in cost efficiency and marketing have a moderating impact on this relationship.

With the current rise of multinational enterprises (MNEs) from emerging economies (EE), more attention is now being directed to EE MNEs and what drives the internationalization of these companies. In this article we aim to provide more insights into the strategies and development of EE MNEs by conducting an in-depth study of a Chinese high-tech company in the communications equipment industry: Huawei. Our case study proposes that EE MNEs (1) tend to nurture their capability in the domestic market as a base before internationalization; (2) prefer to enter markets with fewer barriers in cultural, technological, economic, and institutional distances to accumulate experience and move up the value curve; and (3) use inward and outward linkages to complement their strengths and offset their w...

From an integrative perspective, this study explores the determinants of international alliance performance in emerging and developed economies. It is proposed that multinational enterprises' (MNEs') commitment of property-based resources is more likely to yield superior performance in developed markets, while knowledge-based resources are more likely to enhance alliance performance in emerging markets. Meanwhile, MNEs' dominance in alliance management is more likely to help performance in developed markets, and trust between partners is more critical in emerging economies. Suggestions for empirical examination and directions for future research are discussed in the concluding section.

Russia is one of the fastest growing emerging economies and large Russian companies, mainly resource exporters, have entered the global markets in recent years. The internationalization process of Russian enterprises and its implications on foreign direct investment paradigms have attracted global interest. This paper studies the effect of internationalization on the performance of large Russian companies (state-owned, privatized and de-novo). The results show that international operations have a significant effect on company performance indicators. Companies with international operations have significantly higher profitability and labor productivity. However, profitability or labor productivity is not significantly higher in the early years of trade liberalization. The positive effects...

The financial crisis of 2007 has brought into sharper focus a set of rising global financial actors-the sovereign investors. In the form of sovereign wealth funds ("SWFs"), sovereigns have become an important player in the global financial market and its stability. Over the last decade, SWFs became more visible and more aggressive in the scope and form of their interventions in global finance. State-owned enterprises began to operate indirectly through subordinate legal persons that operate like privately held multinational corporations. In this new form, sovereigns are becoming a more significant presence in global markets, as owners as well as investors. More importantly, sovereign owners have begun to coordinate their economic activities for economic and sovereign goals. Consequently...

The impact of globalization and worldwide competition has become excruciatingly noticeable in China. The purpose of this study is to examine China's transformation of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) to competitive, capable organizations by identifying the dominant challenges and forces for change to State-Owned Enterprises in China (SOE), the nature of SOE responses to those forces, and the degree of SOE success in making the necessary transformations to compete in a global business environment.
