The Theory of Comparative Advantage
The theory of competitive advantage provides a basis for explaining and justifying international trade in a model assumed to enjoy
Free trade Perfect competition No uncertainty Costless information No government interference
9
10
The Theory of Comparative Advantage: Limitations
Although international trade might have approached the comparative advantage model during the nineteenth century, it certainly does not today;
Countries do not appear to specialize only in those products that could be most efficiently produced by that country’s particular factors of production
At least two of the factors of production (capital and technology) now flow easily between countries (rather than only indirectly through traded goods and services)
Modern factors of production are more numerous than this simple model
Comparative advantage shifts over time
10
11
The Theory of Comparative Advantage
Comparative advantage is still, however, a relevant theory to explain why particular countries are most suitable for exports of goods and services that support the global supply chain of both MNEs and domestic firms
The comparative advantage of the 21st century, however, is one which is based more on services, and their cross border facilitation by telecommunications and the Internet
11
14
Market Imperfections:A Rationale for the MNE
Firms become multinational for one or several of the following reasons:
Market seekers – produce in foreign markets either to satisfy local demand or export to markets other than their own
Raw material seekers – search for cheaper or more raw materials outside their own market
Production efficiency seekers – produce in countries where one or more of the factors of production are cheaper
Knowledge seekers – gain access to new technologies or managerial expertise
Political safety seekers – establish operations in countries considered unlikely to expropriate or interfere with private enterprise
15
International Monetary System Learn how the international monetary system
has evolved from the days of the gold standard to today’s eclectic currency arrangement
Discover the origin and development of the Eurocurrency market
Analyze the characteristics of an ideal currency Explain the currency regime choices faced by
emerging market countries Examine how the euro, a single currency for the
European Union, was created
16
History of the InternationalMonetary System
The Gold Standard, 1876-1913 Countries set par value for their currency in terms of
gold This came to be known as the gold standard and
gained acceptance in Western Europe in the 1870s The US adopted the gold standard in 1879 The “rules of the game” for the gold standard were
simple• Example: US$ gold rate was $20.67/oz, the British pound
was pegged at £4.2474/oz• US$/£ rate calculation is $20.67/£4.2472 = $4.8665/£
17
History of the InternationalMonetary System
Because governments agreed to buy/sell gold on demand with anyone at its own fixed parity rate, the value of each currency in terms of gold, the exchange rates were therefore fixed
Countries had to maintain adequate gold reserves to back its currency’s value in order for regime to function
The gold standard worked until the outbreak of WWI, which interrupted trade flows and free movement of gold thus forcing major nations to suspend operation of the gold standard
18
History of the InternationalMonetary System
The Inter-War years and WWII, 1914-1944 During WWI, currencies were allowed to fluctuate over wide
ranges in terms of gold and each other, theoretically, supply and demand for imports/exports caused moderate changes in an exchange rate about an equilibrium value• The gold standard has a similar function
In 1934, the US devalued its currency to $35/oz from $20.67/oz prior to WWI
From 1924 to the end of WWII, exchange rates were theoretically determined by each currency's value in terms of gold.
During WWII and aftermath, many main currencies lost their convertibility. The US dollar remained the only major trading currency that was convertible
19
History of the InternationalMonetary System
Bretton Woods and the IMF, 1944 Allied powers met in Bretton Woods, NH and created
a post-war international monetary system The agreement established a US dollar based
monetary system and created the IMF and World Bank
Under original provisions, all countries fixed their currencies in terms of gold but were not required to exchange their currencies
Only the US dollar remained convertible into gold (at $35/oz with Central banks, not individuals)
20
History of the InternationalMonetary System
Therefore, each country established its exchange rate vis-à-vis the US dollar and then calculated the gold par value of their currency
Participating countries agreed to try to maintain the currency values within 1% of par by buying or selling foreign or gold reserves
Devaluation was not to be used as a competitive trade policy, but if a currency became too weak to defend, up to a 10% devaluation was allowed without formal approval from the IMF
21
History of the InternationalMonetary System
The Special Drawing Right (SDR) is an international reserve assets created by the IMF to supplement existing foreign exchange reserves• It serves as a unit of account for the IMF and is also the base
against which some countries peg their exchange rates• Defined initially in terms of fixed quantity of gold, the SDR
has been redefined several times• Currently, it is the weighted average value of currencies of 5
IMF members having the largest exports• Individual countries hold SDRs in the form of deposits at the
IMF and settle IMF transactions through SDR transfers

History of the InternationalMonetary System
Fixed exchange rates, 1945-1973 Bretton Woods and IMF worked well post WWII, but
diverging fiscal and monetary policies and external shocks caused the system’s demise• The US dollar remained the key to the web of exchange
rates Heavy capital outflows of dollars became required to
meet investors’ and deficit needs and eventually this overhang of dollars held by foreigners created a lack of confidence in the US’ ability to meet its obligations
23
History of the InternationalMonetary System
This lack of confidence forced President Nixon to suspend official purchases or sales of gold on Aug. 15, 1971
Exchange rates of most leading countries were allowed to float in relation to the US dollar
By the end of 1971, most of the major trading currencies had appreciated vis-à-vis the US dollar; i.e. the dollar depreciated
A year and a half later, the dollar came under attack again and lost 10% of its value
By early 1973 a fixed rate system no longer seemed feasible and the dollar, along with the other major currencies was allowed to float
By June 1973, the dollar had lost another 10% in value
25
Current Exchange Rate Arrangements
36 major currencies, such as the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, the Euro, and the British pound are determined largely by market forces.
50 countries, including the China, India, Russia, and Singapore, adopt some forms of “Managed Floating” system.
41 countries do not have their own national currencies! 40 countries, including many islands in the Caribbean, many
African nations, UAE and Venezuela, do have their own currencies, but they maintain a peg to another currency such as the U.S. dollar.
The remaining countries have some mixture of fixed and floating exchange-rate regimes.
Note: As of July 31, 2005.25
26
The Euro Product of the desire to create a more integrated
European economy. Eleven European countries adopted the Euro on
January 1, 1999: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland,
Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain. The following countries opted out initially:
Denmark, Greece, Sweden, and the U.K. Euro notes and coins were introduced in 2002 Greece adopted the Euro in 2001 Slovenia adopted the Euro in 2007

Risk Management -What is special about international finance?
Foreign exchange risk E.g., an unexpected devaluation adversely affects
your export market…Political risk
E.g., an unexpected overturn of the government that jeopardizes existing negotiated contracts…
Market imperfections E.g., trade barriers and tax incentives may affect
location of production…Expanded opportunity sets
E.g., raise funds in global markets, gains from economies of scale…

The Foreign Exchange MarketThe FX market encompasses:
Conversion of purchasing power from one currency to another; bank deposits of foreign currency; credit denominated in foreign currency; foreign trade financing; trading in foreign currency options & futures, and currency swaps
No central market place World-wide linkage of bank currency traders, non-bank dealers
(IBanks, insurance companies, etc.), and FX brokers—like an international OTC market
Largest financial market in the world Daily trading is estimated to be US$3.21 trillion Trading occurs 24 hours a day London is the largest FX trading center

31
The Foreign Exchange Market The FX market is a two-tiered market:
Interbank Market (Wholesale)• Accounts for about 83% of FX trading volume—mostly
speculative or arbitrage transactions• About 100-200 international banks worldwide stand ready to
make a market in foreign exchange• FX brokers match buy and sell orders but do not carry
inventory and FX specialists Client Market (Retail)
• Accounts for about 17% of FX trading volume Market participants include international banks, their customers,
non-bank dealers, FX brokers, and central banks
Note: Data is from 2007. 31
33
Spot Transactions
A spot transaction in the interbank market is the purchase of foreign exchange, with delivery and payment between banks to take place, normally, on the second following business day The settlement date is often referred to as the
value date This is the date when most dollar transactions
are settled through the computerized Clearing House Interbank Payment Systems (CHIPS) in New York
34
Outright Forward Transactions This transaction requires delivery at a future value date
of a specified amount of one currency for another The exchange rate is agreed upon at the time of the
transaction, but payment and delivery are delayed Forward rates are contracts quoted for value dates of
one, two, three, six, nine and twelve months Terminology typically used is buying or selling forward A contract to deliver dollars for euros in six months is both
buying euros forward for dollars and selling dollars forward for euros
35
Swap Transactions A swap transaction in the interbank market is the
simultaneous purchase and sale of a given amount of foreign exchange for two different value dates
Both purchase and sale are conducted with the same counterpart
A common type of swap is a spot against forward The dealer buys a currency in the spot market and
simultaneously sells the same amount back to the same bank in the forward market
Since this transaction occurs at the same time and with the same counterpart, the dealer incurs no exchange rate exposure
36
Size of the FOREX Market
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) estimates that daily global net turnover in traditional FOREX market activity to be US$3.2 trillion in April 2007 Spot transactions at $1,005 billion/day Outright forward transactions at $363
billion/day Swap transactions at $1,714 billion/day
37
Global Foreign Exchange Market Turnover, 1989-2007 (daily averages in April, billions
of U.S. dollars)
38
Size of the FOREX Market
The United Kingdom (London) and the United States (New York) make up roughly 50% of the foreign exchange market
The London trade alone makes up 34.1% of daily transactions in the foreign exchange market
Switzerland has grown in recent years and is now the third largest market with 6.1% of world trading
39
Foreign Currency Futures
A foreign currency futures contract is an alternative to a forward contract It calls for future delivery of a standard
amount of currency at a fixed time and price These contracts are traded on exchanges
with the largest being the International Monetary Market located in the Chicago Mercantile Exchange
40
Foreign Currency Futures
Contract Specifications Size of contract – called the notional principal, trading
in each currency must be done in an even multiple Method of stating exchange rates – “American terms”
are used; quotes are in US dollar cost per unit of foreign currency, also known as direct quotes
Maturity date – contracts mature on the 3rd Wednesday of January, March, April, June, July, September, October or December
41
Foreign Currency Futures
Contract Specifications Last trading day – contracts may be traded through
the second business day prior to maturity date Collateral & maintenance margins – the purchaser or
trader must deposit an initial margin or collateral; this requirement is similar to a performance bond• At the end of each trading day, the account is marked to
market and the balance in the account is either credited if value of contracts is greater or debited if value of contracts is less than account balance
42
Foreign Currency Futures
Contract Specifications Settlement – only 5% of futures contracts are settled
by physical delivery, most often buyers and sellers offset their position prior to delivery date• The complete buy/sell or sell/buy is termed a round turn
Commissions – customers pay a commission to their broker to execute a round turn and only a single price is quoted
Use of a clearing house as a counterparty – All contracts are agreements between the client and the exchange clearing house. Consequently clients need not worry about the performance of a specific counterparty since the clearing house is guaranteed by all members of the exchange
44
Foreign Currency Options
A foreign currency option is a contract giving the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a given amount of currency at a fixed price per unit for a specified time period
The most important part of clause is the “right, but not the obligation” to take an action
Two basic types of options, calls and puts• Call – buyer has right to purchase currency• Put – buyer has right to sell currency
The buyer of the option is the holder and the seller of the option is termed the writer
45
Foreign Currency Options
Every option has three different price elements The strike or exercise price is the exchange rate at
which the foreign currency can be purchased or sold The premium, the cost, price or value of the option
itself paid at time option is purchased The underlying or actual spot rate in the market
There are two types of option maturities American options may be exercised at any time
during the life of the option European options may not be exercised until the
specified maturity date
46
Foreign Currency Options
Options may also be classified as per their payouts
At-the-money (ATM) options have an exercise price equal to the spot rate of the underlying currency
In-the-money (ITM) options may be profitable, excluding premium costs , if exercised immediately
Out-of-the-money (OTM) options would not be profitable, excluding the premium costs, if exercised
47
Foreign Currency Options Markets
The increased use of currency options has lead the creation of several markets where financial managers can access these derivative instruments
Over-the-Counter (OTC) Market – OTC options are most frequently written by banks for US dollars against British pounds, Swiss francs, Japanese yen, Canadian dollars and the euro• Main advantage is that they are tailored to purchaser• Counterparty risk exists• Mostly used by individuals and banks
48
Foreign Currency Options Markets
Organized Exchanges – similar to the futures market, currency options are traded on an organized exchange floor• The Chicago Mercantile and the Philadelphia
Stock Exchange serve options markets• Clearinghouse services are provided by the
Options Clearinghouse Corporation (OCC)
49
International Parity Conditions
The economic theories which link exchange rates, price levels, and interest rates together are called international parity conditions
These theories may not always work out to be “true” when compared to what students and practitioners observe in the real world, but they are central to any understanding of how multinational business is conducted
50
P$ S = P¥
Where the price of the product in US dollars (P$), multiplied by the spot exchange rate (S, yen per dollar), equals the price of the product in Japanese yen (P¥)
Prices and Exchange Rates
The Law of one price states that all else being equal (no transaction costs) a product’s price should be the same in all markets
Even if prices for a particular product are in different currencies, the law of one price states that

Prices and Exchange Rates
Conversely, if the prices were stated in local currencies, and markets were efficient, the exchange rate could be deduced from the relative local product prices
52
Purchasing Power Parity & The Law of One Price
If the Law of One Price were true for all goods, the purchasing power parity (PPP) exchange rate could be found from any set of prices
Through price comparison, prices of individual products can be determined through the PPP exchange rate
This is the absolute theory of purchasing power parity
Absolute PPP states that the spot exchange rate is determined by the relative prices of similar basket of goods
53
The Hamburger Standard
The “Big Mac Index,” as it has been christened by The Economist is a prime example of this law of one price :
Assuming that the Big Mac is identical in all countries, it serves as a comparison point as to whether or not currencies are trading at market prices
Big Mac in China costs Yuan 11.0 (local currency), while the same Big Mac in the US costs $3,41
The actual exchange rate was Yuan 7.60/$ at the time
54
The Hamburger Standard
The price of a Big Mac in Chinese Yuan in U.S. dollar-terms was therefore:
The Economist then calculates the implied purchasing power parity rate of exchange using the actual price of the Big Mac in China over the price of the Big Mac in U.S. dollars:
Yuan 11.0Yuan 7.60/$
= $1.45
Yuan 11.0$3.41 = Yuan
3.23/$
55
Yuan 3.23/$ - Yuan 7.60/$
Yuan 7.60/$
= -58%
The Hamburger Standard
Now comparing the implied PPP rate of exchange, Yuan 3.23/$, with the actual market rate of exchange at that time, Yuan 7.60/$, the degree to which the Chinese yuan is either undervalued or overvalued versus the U.S. dollar is calculated:
57
i = r + + r
Where i is the nominal rate, r is the real rate of interest, and is the expected rate of inflation over the period of timeThe cross-product term, r , is usually dropped due to its relatively minor value
Interest Rates and Exchange Rates
Prices between countries are related by exchange rates and now we discuss how exchange rates are linked to interest rates
The Fisher Effect states that nominal interest rates in each country are equal to the required real rate of return plus compensation for expected inflation. As a formula, The Fisher Effect is
58
i = r + ; i = r + $ $ $ ¥ ¥ ¥
It should be noted that this requires a forecast of the future rate of inflation, not what inflation has been, and predicting the future can be difficult!
Interest Rates and Exchange Rates
Applied to two different countries, like the US and Japan, the Fisher Effect would be stated as

Interest Rates and Exchange Rates
The international Fisher effect, or Fisher-open, states that the spot exchange rate should change in an amount equal to but in the opposite direction of the difference in interest rates between countries
if we were to use the US dollar and the Japanese yen, the expected change in the spot exchange rate between the dollar and yen should be (in approximate form)
60
Interest Rates and Exchange Rates
Justification for the international Fisher effect is that investors must be rewarded or penalized to offset the expected change in exchange rates
The international Fisher effect predicts that with unrestricted capital flows, an investor should be indifferent between investing in dollar or yen bonds, since investors worldwide would see the same opportunity and compete it away
61
Interest Rates and Exchange Rates
The Forward Rate A forward rate is an exchange rate quoted today for
settlement at some future date The forward exchange agreement between currencies
states the rate of exchange at which a foreign currency will be bought or sold forward at a specific date in the future (typically 30, 60, 90, 180, 270 or 360 days)
The forward rate is calculated by adjusting the current spot rate by the ratio of euro currency interest rates of the same maturity for the two subject currencies

Using the previous Sfr example, the forward discount or premium would be as follows:
67
Interest Rate Parity (IRP)
Interest rate parity theory provides the linkage between foreign exchange markets and international money markets
The theory states that the difference in the national interest rates for securities of similar risk and maturity should be equal to, but opposite sign to, the forward rate discount or premium for the foreign currency, except for transaction costs
68
Interest Rate Parity (IRP)
In the diagram in the following slide, a US dollar-based investor with $1 million to invest, is shown indifferent between dollar-denominated securities for 90 days earning 8.00% per annum, or Swiss franc-denominated securities of similar risk and maturity earning 4.00% per annum, when “cover” against currency risk is obtained with a forward contract

Sourcing Equity Globally
Depositary Receipts Depositary receipts are negotiable certificates
issued by a bank to represent the underlying shares of stock, which are held in trust at a foreign custodian bank• Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) – refers to certificates
traded outside the US• American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) – are certificates
traded in the US and denominated in US dollars• ADRs are sold, registered, and transferred in the US in the
same manner as any share of stock with each ADR representing some multiple of the underlying foreign share
76
Sourcing Equity Globally
Depositary Receipts This multiple allows the ADRs to possess a
price per share conventional for the US market
ADRs are either sponsored or unsponsored Sponsored ADRs are created at the request
of a foreign firm wanting its shares traded in the US; the firm applies to the SEC and a US bank for registration and issuance
79
Foreign Equity Listing & Issuance
By cross-listing and selling its shares on a foreign stock exchange a firm typically tries to accomplish one or more of the following objectives:
Improve the liquidity of its existing shares and support a liquid secondary market
Increase its share price by overcoming mispricing in a segmented and illiquid home market
Increase the firm’s visibility and political acceptance to its customers, suppliers, creditors & host governments
Establish a secondary market for shares used for acquisitions Create a secondary market for shares that can be used to
compensate local management and employees in foreign subsidiaries
80
Size and Liquidity of Markets
Three key trends in the evolution of modern exchanges: Demutualization or the end of market
ownership by a small, privileged group of “seat owners”
Diversification by exchanges to trade a broader range of products
Globalization or effectively another form of diversification through several techniques
81
Foreign Equity Listing & Issuance
Cross-listing is a way to encourage investors to continue to hold and trade shares that may or may not be listed on an investors home market or in a preferred currency
Cross-listing is usually done through ADRs (in the United States, where they are traded and quoted in U.S. dollars)
Global Registered Shares (GRSs), on the other hand, are able to be traded on equity exchanges around the globe in a variety of currencies and are traded electronically
82
Effect of Cross-Listingon Share Price
The impact on price of cross-listing on a foreign stock market depends on the degree to which the markets are segmented
As was the situation experienced by Novo, a firm can benefit if a foreign market values a company more highly than a home market (in a highly-segmented situation)
83
International Debt Markets
These markets offer a variety of different maturities, repayment structures and currencies of denomination
They also vary by source of funding, pricing structure, maturity and subordination
Three major sources of funding are International bank loans and syndicated credits Euronote market International bond market
84
International Debt Markets
Bank loan and syndicated credits Traditionally sourced in eurocurrency markets Also called eurodollar credits or eurocredits
• Eurocredits are bank loans denominated in eurocurrencies and extended by banks in countries other than in whose currency the loan is denominated
Syndicated credits• Enables banks to risk lending large amounts• Arranged by a lead bank with participation of other bank
Narrow spread, usually less than 100 basis points
85
International Debt Markets
Euronote market Collective term for medium and short term
debt instruments sourced in the Eurocurrency market
Two major groups• Underwritten facilities and non-underwritten
facilities• Non-underwritten facilities are used for the sale
and distribution of Euro-commercial paper (ECP) and Euro Medium-term notes (EMTNs)
86
International Debt Markets Euronote facilities
• Established market for sale of short-term, negotiable promissory notes in eurocurrency market
• These include Revolving Underwriting Facilities, Note Issuance Facilities, and Standby Note Issuance Facilities
Euro-commercial paper (ECP) • Similar to commercial paper issued in domestic markets with
maturities of 1,3, and 6 months Euro Medium-term notes (EMTNs)
• Similar to domestic MTNs with maturities of 9 months to 10 years
• Bridged the gap between short-term and long-term euro debt instruments
87
International Debt Markets
International bond market Fall within two broad categories
• Eurobonds• Foreign bonds
The distinction between categories is based on whether the borrower is a domestic or foreign resident and whether the issue is denominated in a local or foreign currency
88
International Debt Markets
Eurobonds A Eurobond is underwritten by an international
syndicate of banks and sold exclusively in countries other than the country in whose currency the bond is denominated
Issued by MNEs, large domestic corporations, governments, government enterprises and international institutions
Offered simultaneously in a number of different capital markets
89
International Debt Markets Eurobonds
Several different types of issues• Straight Fixed-rate issue• Floating rate note (FRN)• Equity related issue – convertible bond
Foreign bonds Underwritten by a syndicate and sold principally within the
country of the denominated currency, however the issuer is from another country
These include • Yankee bonds• Samurai bonds
91
International Debt Markets
Unique characteristics of Eurobond markets Absence of regulatory interference
• National governments often impose controls on foreign issuers of securities, however the euromarkets fall outside of governments’ control
Less stringent disclosure Favorable tax status
• Eurobonds offer tax anonymity and flexibility
Rating of Eurobonds & other international issues Moody’s, Fitch and Standard & Poor’s rate bonds just
as in US market
93
Where to Invest
Two related behavioral theories behind FDI that are most popular are
Behavioral approach to FDI International network theory
Behavioral Approach – Observation that firms tended to invest first in countries that were not too far from their country in psychic terms
This included cultural, legal, and institutional environments similar to their own
94
Where to Invest
International network theory – As MNEs grow they eventually become a network, or nodes that operate either in a centralized hierarchy or a decentralized one
Each subsidiary competes for funds from the parent It is also a member of an international network based
on its industry The firm becomes a transnational firm, one that is
owned by a coalition of investors located in different countries
95
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
Exporting vs. production abroad Advantages of exporting are
• None of the unique risks facing FDI, joint ventures, strategic alliances and licensing
• Political risks are minimal• Agency costs and evaluating foreign units are avoided
Disadvantages are• Firm is not able to internalize and exploit its advantages• Risks losing market to imitators and global competitors
96
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
Licensing/management contracts versus control of assets abroad
Licensing is a popular method for domestic firms to profit from foreign markets without the need to commit sizable funds
Disadvantages of licensing are• License fees are likely lower than FDI profits although ROI
may be higher• Possible loss of quality control• Establishment of potential competitor• Possible improvement of technology by local license which
then enters firm’s original home market
97
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
• Possible loss of opportunity to enter licensee’s market with FDI later
• Risk that technology will be stolen• High agency costs
Management contracts are similar to licensing insofar as they provide for some cash flow from foreign source without significant investment or exposure
These contracts lessen political risk because the repatriation of managers is easy
98
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
Joint ventures versus wholly owned subsidiary A joint venture is a shared ownership in a foreign
business This is a viable strategy if the MNE finds the right
local partner Some advantages include
• The local partner understands the market• The local partner can provide competent management at all
levels• Some host countries require that foreign firms share
ownership with local partner
99
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
Joint ventures versus wholly owned subsidiary Advantages of joint ventures
• The local partner’s contacts & reputation enhance access to host country’s capital markets
• The local partner may possess technology that is appropriate for the local environment
• The public image of a firm that is partially locally owned may improve its position
100
How to Invest Abroad: Modes of FDI
Joint ventures versus wholly owned subsidiary Disadvantages of joint ventures
• Political risk is increased if wrong partner is chosen• Local and foreign partners have divergent views on strategy

Doing Business in China
“Doing business in China can be one of the riskiest yet most rewarding undertakings for the most experienced multinational corporations right through to companies venturing abroad. It is not only the world’s most populous nation with 1.2 billion consumers and one of the fastest booming economies enjoying double-digit growth rates in recent years but China is also a society experiencing breakneck development, an ongoing shift to a market economy and evolution in the rule of law. The opportunities are obvious and so are the challenges.”
