1. Survival:
It is not necessary for a business that is currently in the market to
remain there in the long run. The longevity of a business is not sure.
Therefore for a business to remain in the market it is necessary to
ensure its survival to protect the interests of those associated with it.
Survival depends upon many internal and external factors like
competition, technological changes, state of economy and type of
ownership.

Keiretsu
Description
Cartels is a term from economics, to define the groups
of firms in an oligopoly acting together. The
cooperation in organisations forming a cartel may be
in form of decisions regarding prices and plans.
Organisations may form open cartels known to the
general public or secret cartels not known to the
general public.
Explicit contracts are the second option for
cooperation between firms. Firms may identify some
common interest for cooperation between them and
write such arrangements that help all those who are
involved.
Keiretsu is a set of companies with interlocking
business relationships and share holdings. It is a type
of business group where member companies prefer to
do business with other keiretsu members, both when
buying and when selling. It refers to a group of
companies, usually in related Keiretsu is a set of

There are several reasons why companies go global. These reasons are as
follows:
a)
Rapid shrinking of time and distance across the globe due to faster
communication, speedier transportation, growing financial flows and
rapid technological changes
b)
Domestic markets are no longer enough to absorb whatever is
produced.
c)
Foreign markets have become large enough to justify foreign
investment.
d)
Reliable or cheaper resources available in other countries, e.g.,
cheap labour in India attract foreign investors.
e)
To reduce high transportation costs in case of exports to remote
countries.
f)
To improve sales volume to support high overheads or R&D
expenses like in electronics and technology products.
Manifestation of Globalisation
1) Configuring anywhere in the world - An MNC can locate its different
operations in different countries on the basis of raw material
availability, consumer markets and low-cost labour.
2) Interlinked and interdependent economies - Economies are
increasing international trade as each countrys prosperity is
interlinked with the rest of the world. No nation can any longer
succeed alone without international trade and assistance.
3) Lowering of trade and tariff barriers - The trade tariffs and custom
barriers are getting lowered, resulting in easy foreign trade and
cheaper and abundant supply of goods internationally.
4) Increasing trend towards privatization - Governments everywhere
are withdrawing from owning and running business enterprises.

5) Legal factors affect how a company operates, its costs, and the
demand for its products.
6) Environmental factors affect industries such as tourism, farming,
and insurance. Growing awareness to climate change is affecting
how companies operate and the products they offer--it is both
creating new markets and diminishing or destroying existing ones.

The way one uses the five-force model to determine what competition is
like in a given industry is to build the picture of competition in three steps:
Step 1: Identify the specific competitive pressures associated
with each of the five forces.
Step 2: Evaluate how strong the pressures comprising each of the
five forces are (fierce, strong, moderate to normal, or weak).
Step 3: Determine whether the collective strength of the five
competitive forces is conducive to earning attractive profits.
