Administrative Distances
• Difference in currency • Tariff and non-tariff barriers (such as safety
regulation): but this distance decreases over time (WTO, regional integration by FTA)
• Local government FDI policy (restrictions and incentives)
• Political disputes, conflicts
What is WTO? • World Trade Organization(HQ: Geneve, UN
organization, 151 countries, established in 1995, former GATT)
• WTO principles – MFN(Most Favorable Nation) 最恵国待遇:
Exception for regional integration (FTA, EPA) – NT(National Treatment) 内国民待遇
• WTO rules – Tariffs in goods and services:ITA(Information
Technology Agreement) – Trade Related Investment Measures(TRIMS) – Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights(TRIPS) – Government procurement, safety regulation, anti-
dumping, safe guard rules etc.

Deregulation schedule for retail and wholesalse sector in China
Regional integrations with ASEAN
FTAs (EPAs) in Asia
Why “role of government”?
• Administrative distances are greater for developing economies. (WTO, FTAs … but…)
• Institutional fragileness in government agencies: limited human resource capacities, fragile legal institutions and discretions of local government officers.
• Risk management perspectives; understanding local government incentives (sometimes government officer individual level) and relationship building is important.
India vs China: public organization China India
Political Organization Chinese Communist Party (virtually one party control)
Multiple parties competition
NDA (National Democratic Alliance) such as INC
(Congress) vs UPA (United Progressive Alliance) such
as BJP National Congress National People’s Congress
(全人代) Two house system (Upper house and Lower house)
Administrative organization
Centralized Local (state) independency
Officers Bureaucrats (CCP member) IAS system Governance mechanism 人治 (ruled by human) 法治 (ruled by law)
Discretion Small in central, but large in local
Small by legal system, but large for executions
Risk associated with policy change
Large and unpredictable (such as Shanghai
industrial park case)
Large but predictable (such changes are based on democratic process
Institutional Voids
Developed world
No institutions (Chaotic world)
(Khanna and Palepu, 2010)
Product Market
Financial Market
Labor Market
Macro Condition
China Relatively well retail sector, competitive
Murky firm info., under-developed banking
Potentially good, but small amount of manager supply
Institutional voids are covered by state control, but info. controlled
India Protected and fragmented retail, disastrous PI
Relatively well developed
Strong labor unions and actions
Government policy is politicized, open info exchange
Strategy questions from IV view • Again, replicate (aggregation), adapt(adaptation) or
exploitation (arbitrage)? – Examples of exploitation: METRO cash and carry, Blue
River Capital (IV in financial market) • Compete alone or collaborate?
– Working together with local partner? This will be discussed later in my course
• Accept or attempt to change market context? – Filling IV by yourself? Influence on local government?
(Toyota supply chain system in Guangzhou) • Enter, wait or exit?
– Investment (exit) decision making with risk analysis
Risk factor identification
• Risk: Uncertainty which might be under control • Types of global business risks
– PEST(Politics, Economics, Society, Technology) – Global business: beyond PEST, risks inherited in
institutional voids • Management decision under uncertainty -> Project
evaluation (NPV, Monte Carlo simulation, VaR, real option approach etc.)
• Major caveats for Japanese firms: too many risks -> don’t invest (discount factor may be too high).
Major risks associated with China business
• Increasing production cost: particularly labor costs, worker protection policy and labor activist movements.
• Technology leakage: Weak IPR enforcement, high labor turnover
• Lack of transparency with government policy, various regulations: discretionary power of (local) government, sudden change of policies
Decision under uncertainty
• Risk factor identification • Setting variance of risk factor (risk scoring) • Modeling risk project and simulation
– Investment decision for new project (or exist from existing project): NPV, real option valuation (waiting options)
– Risk management for existing project: determing major risks which should be treated
• Independent project making or company wide strategic move?
How to mitigate institutional risk?
• Case of Shanhai Jiading industrial park: Japanese firms was forced to be out
• Case of Tata’s factory case: pull out from West Bengal
Two qeustions • What could have been done in advance? • How to treat this?
Next class: Case study on Neemrana Industrial Park
• Neemrana Industrial Park has been developed by cooperation of Japanese and Indian governments. What are reasons why both side of governments helped to develop this industrial park?
• What are risks associated with investment in production sites in India? What are benefits located in Neemrana Industrial Park, in terms of lowering these risks?
• Hitachi plans to extend “Neemrana Shared Energy Center (N-SEC)” model to other region of India? Do you think whether Hitachi will succeed?
• Do you have any recommendation in new business in India? What kind of business will be successful? You can extend a scope of your industry, not only in manufacturing, but also to trading companies, banks and logistics business.
