| Use the globalEDGE™ site to complete the following exercises: 1. Prior to internationalizing your corporate legal representation firm, management is hoping to better understand which countries efficiently enforce legal contracts. The Doing Business Indicators follow statistics on many countries and regions of the world to provide users with an indication of the economic and legal conditions worldwide. Locate the three measures used by the resource to measure how different countries are enforcing contracts. Which countries rank as the five most and least efficient legal systems for each measure? Do any countries appear multiple times across these rankings? If so, list the countries that would be most and least appealing for your firm to enter. If not, are there specific regions that are represented in your analysis? From this information, develop a brief report for management that outlines your recommendation for an internationalization strategy. 2. The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is a comparative assessment of a country’s integrity performance. Provide a description of this index and its ranking. Identify the five countries with the lowest and the five with the highest CPI scores according to this index. Do you see any trends between CPI scores and the level of economic and social development of a country? |
