Abstract

[spa] Comercio international y diferenciación de los productos : arbitraje entre exportación e inversión directa, . por Corinne Barlet.. . Una empresa que desea penetrar en un mercado extranjero tiene la posibilidad entre exportar sus productos o implantarse directamente en dicho mercado. Este arbitraje puede ser afectado por consideraciones estratégicas diversas. Así, las empresas pueden preferir la inversion directa a la exportación, aunque su coste sea más elevado. El valor estratégico de la inversión directa reside en su capacidad para obstaculizar la penetración de una empresa de la competencia, mediante la election adaptada del bien producido. [ger] Internationaler Handel und Produktdifferenzierung: die Wahl zwischen Exportieren und Direktinvestition, . von Corinne Barlet.. . Ein Unternehmen kann auf einem ausländischen Markt Fuß fassen, indem es entweder seine Erzeugnisse in dieses Land exportiert oder sich dort selbst ansiedelt. Bei dieser Wahl können strategische Erwägungen eine Rolle spielen. Der Direktinvestition kann somit gegenüber dem Export der Vorzug gegeben werden, selbst wenn sich ihre Kosten als höher erweisen. Der strategische Vorteil der Direktinvestition beruht auf der Möglichkeit des angesiedelten Unternehmens, einem Konkurrenten dank einer geeigneten Produktwahl den Marktzugang zu versperren. [eng] International Trade and Product Differentiation: an Arbitration between Export and Direct Investment, . by Corinne Barlet.. . A firm planning to make a breakthrough on foreign market does so either by exporting or directly setting up shop in the foreign country, the choice of the one alternative over the other depending on strategic considerations. Direct investment can thus be preferred over export, even if it turns out to be a more costly operation. The strategic value of direct investment lies in its ability to prevent the entry of a potential competitor on the market, thanks to the suitable choices of the manufactured article. [fre] Commerce international et différenciation des produits : un arbitrage entre exportation et investissement direct, . par Corinne Barlet.. . Une firme désirant pénétrer un marché étranger peut soit y exporter, soit s'y implanter directement. Des considérations stratégiques peuvent affecter cet arbitrage. Ainsi, l'investissement direct peut être préféré à l'exportation même son coût se révèle plus important. La valeur stratégique de l'investissement direct réside dans sa capacité à faire obstacle à l'entrée d'un concurrent, grâce à un choix adapté du bien produit.
