  • Arbitrates Trade Disputes Between Nations.
    		•
    Recently, trade disputes have been happening in developed and developing countries. Due to increased economic development, economic boundaries are fading and worldwide economics are integrating toward a unified market.

    For this reason, the initiation of the World Trade Organization in 1995 accelerates domestic and foreign economic growth. WTO targets nation's foreign trade policies and for this, markets need to be opened and each nation's trade conditions should be properly revised to the international trade standard. This also stimulates a nation's need to enforce trade reform.
    The Free Trade Agreements eliminate many trade barriers, such as tariffs, and enables open transactions and interchanges than the WTO would be able. It offers a sector, which transfers resources, previously in ineffective industries, and encourages a specialization in goods for effective industries, which promote manageable growth. This attracts foreign investments from other nations. While it is stipulated that a nation's smaller markets decrease and the country, which holds more capital, requires due diligence of the targeted market's conditions.
    It is possible that a free trade agreement, which originates from a collaborative division of effort, is desirable.
    But each country has an industrial development stage to overcome, and managing development is different for every country. So, it is necessary to have new solutions for international trade relations under the FTA system.

  • Facilitates Corporate Mergers and Acquisitions.


    		•
    Typically, a company grows through merger and acquisition with other corporations for expansion of production and marketing ability.

    M&A transactions include the total acquisition of a company, which has lost its legal and economical independence; the financial merger of a company, which maintains its legal and economical independence; or financial/strategic cooperation.

    One key factor for an M&A is when a company, which is unfamiliar with a target market, invests overseas. Acquisition of an existing corporation reduces uncertainty of a new market by incorporating the success of the previous entity.
    Also, merging an existing company, which has long history in one field, it is possible to overcome the difficulty of establishing a new base by incorporating existing business, qualified human resources, accumulated technique, and management experience. Furthermore, point of entry to the local market can be aggressively executed from the early investment stage supported by consumer recognition of the existing brand, product, and sales vendors.

    However, there are still many conditional factors of uncertainty regarding the value of the existing entity, the cultural gap, intricacies of communications, and so forth.

    For a successful M&A, due diligence and feasibility is necessary to resolve these unknown factors and to properly assess the nature and value of the transaction.
