TURNAROUND STRATEGY: A CASE STUDY OF THE SECURITIES INVESTMENT TRUST ENTERPRISE (UNIT TRUST) SECTOR IN TAIWAN



                                                TURNAROUND STRATEGY: 
A CASE STUDY OF THE SECURITIES INVESTMENT TRUST ENTERPRISE (UNIT TRUST) SECTOR  IN TAIWAN 

                                             MBA MANAGEMENT PROJECT 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract:

Businesses in the financial market are confronted with increasing challenges caused by unpredictable financial and market conditions. The Securities Investment Trust Enterprise firms (called Unit Trust firms in Western countries), in Taiwan experienced a financial crisis in June 2004 followed by a decline. The aim of this project is to examine the domestic SITE sector by interviewing people at all levels in the industry, and to
investigate successful turnaround tactics for domestic SITE firms.

With this purpose, 33 in-depth interviews are conducted. Interviewees include; fund managers from SITE firms who achieved successful turnaround, professional financial investors, industrial investors, and private investors, who buy funds for personal investment.

A broad discussion of the interview results is presented, and it is concluded that performance and marketing are the main influences for investors. It is also recommended that domestic SITE firms need to balance their fund portfolio and improve their risk control management, research work and internal resource integration.
A turnaround tactics model is proposed at the end, which consists of operational and strategic improvements in five respects: trust enhancement, R&D and diversification, performance, marketing and service.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Project Background

Due to rapidly changing market and financial conditions, businesses today, all over the world, are facing new and increasingly tougher challenges. Having benefited from improvements in technology and industrialisation, businesses are now exposed to increased financial and market uncertainty.

“Business  failure  is  a  gradual  process – it rarely  occurs  overnight”  (Scherrer 2003 p.55).

“Every  business  firm  suffers  declines  in  its  fortune  from  time  to  time”  (Schendel  et al. 1976b p.3).

A severe liquidity crisis happened in the Taiwanese bond market in 2004. All Securities Investment Trust Enterprises (SITE), also called Unit Trust firms in the western world, experienced a massive monetary redemption and found themselves close to experiencing a cash dry-out. Thanks to intervention by the government bureau; the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC), the crisis was averted as shareholders of
SITE firms were forced to accept the financial forfeit themselves or be bought-out by competitors. Three years later, some SITE firms have been transformed from near death to sustainable good health, while some have merged or are still struggling to survive in the market place.      
 
Of interest to this report are the management decisions and turnaround experiences that led to substantial decline, subsequent recovery or continuous growth. This report assesses the extent to which leading SITE firms recovered from massive financial damage. It also aims to survey attitudes and opinions on to what extent reputation and trust matters to investors, and to establish a future direction for a long-term turnaround
strategy.  

In doing this, the study builds on the work of Schendel et al. (1976b), Barker and Duhaime (1997), Harker (1998) and others who have devoted their knowledge to the study of turnaround process and strategy management.



ENCOURAGING FDI IN THE NIGERIAN EDUCATIONAL SECTOR: AN ASSESSMENT OF OPPORTUNITIES AND BARRIERS


ENCOURAGING FDI IN THE NIGERIAN EDUCATIONAL SECTOR: AN ASSESSMENT OF OPPORTUNITIES AND BARRIERS

M.Sc. DISSERTATION


ABSTRACT

ENCOURAGING FDI IN THE NIGERIAN EDUCATIONAL SECTOR: AN ASSESSMENT OF OPPORTUNITIES AN BARRIERS
Keywords: FDI, Sub-Saharan Africa, Nigerian Educational Sector, Motivations, Barriers
Several authors have stated that Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) helps development and diversification of a host country’s domestic industry. FDI is getting accelerated at a faster rate and different countries of the world are trying their best to attract more and more FDI as it proves to be a great force for triggering the domestic economic development and diversification.
The Educational sector is important for the continuous development of any nation. Empowerment through education is the bedrock of industrialization. Over the years, the Nigerian Government has continuously beckoned on investors to seek opportunities in the Nigerian Educational Sector. However, very few Multinationals firms have answered the clarion call and have attempted to explore the market opportunities in the Nigerian Educational Sector with some recording success while others failed.
In analyzing ways to encourage FDI, this research will assess the opportunities and barriers in the Nigerian Educational Sector and will focus on multinationals that have invested in the Nigerian Educational Sector.  The study will discover the motivations for FDI in the Nigerian Educational Sector, the FDI modes undertaken by Multinationals in the Nigerian Educational Sector, the motivation for the choice of FDI modes in the Nigerian Educational Sector, the barriers to FDI in the Nigerian Educational Sector in relation to motivation and the methods devised by multinationals to cope with these barriers from the view of personnel of three multinational companies that have invested in the Nigerian Educational Sector.
Using qualitative methods with an inductive approach, this work will show support for the literature on FDI motivations and will discover that market opportunities in the Nigerian Educational Sector are visible to multinationals because of the strong local networks they possess and their long term presence in Nigeria, the FDI entry mode most used by the multinationals when investing in the Nigerian Educational Sector is usually in the form of a non-equity joint venture. It will also show that the major barriers to FDI in the Nigerian Educational sector are Corruption, government bureaucracies, insecurity, bad reputation of Nigerians, political risk and lack of infrastructure and identify Cultism as a barrier specific to FDI in the Nigerian Educational Sector.

Impact Of Inflation On Nigeria Economy


Impact Of Inflation On Nigeria Economy

abstract

currently, economists seem to agree that high rates of inflation cause “problems,” not just for some individuals, but for aggregate economic performance. however, much less agreement exists about the precise relationship between inflation and economic performance, and the mechanism by which inflation affects economic activity.  
 motivated by these questions, this research first examines the relationship between inflation  and economic performance in nigeria by using data over the period 1970-2005.
the methodology employed in this study is the cointegration and granger causality test. consumer price ind ex (cpi) was used as a prox y for inflation and the gdp as a perfect proxy for economic growth to examine the relationship. the scope of the study spanned from 1970 to 2005. a stationarity test was carried out using the augmented dickey-fuller test (adf) and phillip-perron test (pp). and stationarity found at first difference at 1% and 5% level of significance. the johansen-juselius co-integration technique employed in this study proved to be superior to the engle and granger (1987) approach in assessing the co-integrating properties of variables, especially in a multivariate context. the result of the test showed that for the periods,  1970-2005 , there was no co-integrating relationship between inflation and economic growth for nigeria data. 
further effort was made to check the causality relationship that exists between the two variables by employing the var-granger causality at two different lag periods. the results showed the same at different lags. the first test was conducted using lag two (2) and in the result unidirectional causality was seen running from inflation to economic growth. further test at lag four (4) was carried out and it only supported the first by also indicating a unidirectional causality running from inflation to economic growth. various studies as reviewed in the literature came out with the result that high inflation is and has never been favourable to economic growth. hence, the study through the empirical findings maintain the fact that the causality that run from inflation to economic growth is an indication of relationship showing that inflation indeed has an impact on growth.

From the data collected the study concluded that more attention should be given to the  cooperative society so as to improve rural developments, the study recommended that government should encourage cooperatives by providing incentives and by loosening its grip on co-operatives to allow for self-help and self-responsibility principles of cooperativeness. Also further research aimed at finding other roles cooperative societies can aid development of the rural areas” should be encouraged although the research was limited to a specific area (Amuwo Odofin LGA, Lagos). Based on the problems of the cooperatives, it is advised that further research on this topic be aimed at finding better roles of cooperative society towards the development of rural areas in Nigeria and Africa in general.
