    Dipartimento di Impresa e Management Cattedra di Management delle Imprese Internazionali IL SETTORE AUTOMOTIVE: LE DETERMINANTI DELLA VELOCITÀ DI INTERNAZIONALIZZAZIONE NEL CONFRONTO TRA VOLVO E TESLA Prof. Antonio Majocchi Prof. Matteo Giuliano Caroli RELATORE CORRELATORE Valerio Mazzenga Matricola: 709011 CANDIDATO Anno accademico 2019/2020 1 ABSTRACT: Il seguente lavoro ha l’obiettivo di individuare i fattori che determinano l’esistenza di imprese Born Globals, imprese che, a differenza del classico modello di internazionalizzazione a stadi, si espandono all’estero molto velocemente. Diverse teorie hanno cercato di dare una spiegazione al fenomeno e il dibattito è ancora irrisolto. Il focus dell’elaborato sarà quindi il confronto tra le tre principali teorie, quella classica delle teorie IE, quella alternativa di Hennart (FSA) e quella di mediazione di Dow, cercando di riportare nuove evidenze a sostegno di una teoria piuttosto che un’altra. La metodologia di analisi utilizzata è quella del “case study” e l’analisi si concentrerà su due imprese appartenenti al settore Automotive, Volvo e Tesla; attraverso uno studio approfondito delle due imprese, dei loro modelli di business e dei manager che le guidano, si studierà l’importanza della presenza di alcuni fattori e la superfluità di altri. Considerando Volvo come esempio di impresa non-BG si evidenzieranno infatti i suoi tratti caratteristici a testimonianza di fattori non sufficienti a garantire una rapida espansione estera. Considerando invece Tesla come esempio di impresa BG, si evidenzieranno i fattori necessari. I risultati dell’analisi saranno infine paragonati alle teorie dibattute e si esprimerà la posizione presa dal seguente elaborato. 2 INDICE INTRODUZIONE…………………………………………………………………………...PAG.

  • U.S. Investors Are Funding Malign PRC Companies on Major Indices
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE Office of the Spokesperson For Immediate Release FACT SHEET December 8, 2020 U.S. Investors Are Funding Malign PRC Companies on Major Indices “Under Xi Jinping, the CCP has prioritized something called ‘military-civil fusion.’ … Chinese companies and researchers must… under penalty of law – share technology with the Chinese military. The goal is to ensure that the People’s Liberation Army has military dominance. And the PLA’s core mission is to sustain the Chinese Communist Party’s grip on power.” – Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo, January 13, 2020 The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) threat to American national security extends into our financial markets and impacts American investors. Many major stock and bond indices developed by index providers like MSCI and FTSE include malign People’s Republic of China (PRC) companies that are listed on the Department of Commerce’s Entity List and/or the Department of Defense’s List of “Communist Chinese military companies” (CCMCs). The money flowing into these index funds – often passively, from U.S. retail investors – supports Chinese companies involved in both civilian and military production. Some of these companies produce technologies for the surveillance of civilians and repression of human rights, as is the case with Uyghurs and other Muslim minority groups in Xinjiang, China, as well as in other repressive regimes, such as Iran and Venezuela. As of December 2020, at least 24 of the 35 parent-level CCMCs had affiliates’ securities included on a major securities index. This includes at least 71 distinct affiliate-level securities issuers.
