The Transnationalization of Supply Chain Management: The Experience of Brazilian Industrial Companies

Paulo T.V. Resende and Alvaro Bruno Cyrino

Chapter 4 in The Rise of Transnational Corporations from Emerging Markets, 2008 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This insightful book shows that foreign direct investment (FDI) from emerging markets has grown from negligible amounts in the early 1980s to $210 billion in 2007, with the stock of investment now being well over $1 trillion. This reflects the rise of firms from these economies to become important players in the world FDI market. The contributors to this book comprehensively analyze the rise of emerging market TNCs, the salient features of the transnational activities of these firms, the relationship of outward FDI and the competitiveness of the firms involved, their impact on host and home countries and implications for the international law and policy system.
