Recommendation

Judging from the dismal performance of many of the world’s financial markets in early 2016, analysts might have expected that managers of US middle-market companies would pull back their overseas investing in manufacturing, customer service and other areas. Yet for most of these firms, the opposite is true. Many business leaders are planning to invest in various operations abroad. getAbstract recommends this eye-opening report from the Economist Intelligence Unit to business executives examining their decisions about expanding in international markets.

Take-Aways

  • According to an Economist Intelligence Unit survey, executives of US middle-market companies, to a great extent, plan to expand overseas investment in 2016.
  • China and Canada, along with Western Europe, are the preferred locations for most overseas operations, with China the most popular for manufacturing.
  • Some 60% of respondents express confidence about their operations abroad in 2016, while 40% have doubts about at least one aspect of their business or one locale.
