From the Paper:

"Economic growth of a country and the level of equity in the nation are of paramount importance to international business. A national could be experiencing significant growth in terms of economic but have poor wealth redistribution mechanisms. Such an environment may be characterized by high poverty, poor educational infrastructure and low income levels elements which may deter foreign investment. Additionally, privately owned international business organizations may also avoid such markets due to low levels of discretionary income among the population. As such, products and services exports to the country will be affected as these will be channeled to countries where national wealth is adequately redistributed. Nevertheless, such countries may constitute an attractive hub for multinational enterprises seeking to exploit low cost labor resources (Aswathappa, 2010).
"Development strategies of a country also influence its participation in international business as well as its perception on international organization. As such, adoption of development strategies which constitute geographical expansion through establishment of subsidiaries in foreign markets will positively impact on the cross operations. This will allow for international investment by the government besides making the involved country friendlier to international investors (Aswathappa, 2010)."
