  • The Renault-Nissan Alliance 014 the Renault-Nissan Alliance
    The Renault-Nissan Alliance 014 The Renault-Nissan Alliance Nissan has greatly increased its global footprint and achieved dramatic economies of scale through the Renault-Nissan Alliance, a unique and highly scalable strategic partnership founded in 1999. In 2011, 8.03 million cars* were sold by the Renault-Nissan Alliance, amounting to a 10.7% global share. We are marketing vehicles under the brands of Nissan, Infiniti, Renault, Renault Samsung Motors and Dacia. * This figure includes Lada sales (AvtoVAZ of Russia). The Alliance’s Vision Although it was initially considered a unique arrangement in the late 1990s, the Alliance quickly became a model for similar partnerships in the auto industry. The Alliance itself has entered cooperative relationships with Germany’s Daimler, China’s Dongfeng Motor Corp., Russia’s AvtoVAZ and others, and it continues to prove itself as the industry’s most enduring and successful partnership. The Alliance is based on the rationale that substantial cross-shareholding investments compel each company to act in the financial interest of the other, while maintaining individual brand identities and independent corporate cultures. Renault currently has a 43.4% stake in Nissan, and Nissan holds a 15.0% stake in Renault. The cross-shareholding arrangement requires mutual trust and respect, as well as a transparent management system focused on speed, accountability and performance. > Please see our website for more information on the Renault-Nissan Alliance. http://www.nissan-global.com/EN/COMPANY/PROFILE/ALLIANCE/RENAULT01/index.html Alliance Objectives The Alliance pursues a strategy of profitable growth with three objectives: 1. To be recognized by customers as being among the best three automotive groups in the quality and value of its products and services in each region and market segment 2.
