Country Failure Evaluation: Thai Baht
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Considered an emerging market with regard to country risk assessment, one cannot proceed with the Thai baht failure evaluation without first noting how Thailand's economic presence was inextricably linked to all of Asia as a whole. Prior to the Asian Economic Crisis, Thailand held the strongest economic position in all of Southeast Asia. The country's financial situation was strong and, for the most part, it maintained a stable monetary system. However, all of that changed quite drastically in July, 1997, when the plummet of the Thai baht sent its entire economic status into a tailspin, ultimately threatening the world's economy, as well. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Cultural Industries
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 9 page paper discussing cultural industries and their importance. Cultural or culture industries are considered those within a region or country which are based on the creative, cultural, and popular markets of books, magazines, films, videos, multimedia and other products which are distributed on a worldwide basis. Cultural industries not only highlight the cultural diversity of a country but also are considerably important in the economy of each country as well. Since globalization and the deregulation of many restrictive policies, the distribution opportunities available for cultural industries has increased dramatically over the past decade and also expanded to include a shift in industry with more multimedia and electronic-based products. Because of globalization however, many regions fear that their cultural industries are threatened by conglomerates and has resulted in the formation of several organizations which focus on the development, maintenance, and protection of cultural industries.

Currency Risk Management
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the external and internal need for managing the currency risk that organizations increasingly deal with as globalization continues to increase. The trend brings with it the need to equalize business results based on widely varying changes in world currencies. In recent years, the dollar has been strong relative to other major currencies of the world, and while good for the US economy, a dollar greatly stronger than other major world currencies creates a bevy of problems for multinational organizations. Because currency values are never static but can be depended on to regularly change in exchange value, organizations must devise measures that minimize the effects of that currency exchange rate movement. The paper provides several corporate examples, including Caterpillar, Merck, Honeywell and Dow Chemical. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
