For industries to succeed in an competitive environment, they need to have foot in developing market along with a stronghold in research and sales network. We can see this by many of deals that have happened over the lat few years with companies looking towards east for growth which they cannot find in the crowded developed markets.

Even so, as these developing markets also develop and reach with a currency valuation and costs that are near to that of the 1 first line developed countries, there will still be new frontiers.

Chinese traders in Uganda have increased multifold and expected reach the number of the Indian traders already rooted there. World will be soon be back to its old equilibrium of trade shattered by colonialism of last few centuries.

We are all evil for driving a Land Rover, but at least it is a British success story!!
At least the Indians might be proud of it. Once it is moved over there The British will moan about the loss of jobs etc !
Some people relish freedom of choice.

OK, so it's started.
By that I mean the targeting of our successful industries by investors from what were a few years ago considered 'emerging economies'. They are full of cash reserves and appear to have the ability to borrow on a far greater scale than here now that the credit cruch has arrived.
With banks in the US and the UK being stuffed with worthless sub prime loan instruments and declining confidence the ability for domestic white knights to raise an offer are nil.
The next purchases will undoubtedly be in the USA and the purchases will probably be in the form of a return of their own devalued and sinking dollar.
