What is a transnational corporation and what is its role in world trade?
What is the difference between home and host countries?
How do transnational corporations operate?
What other forms of participation of TNCs in foreign economies do you know?
Ex. 1. Read the text and do the tasks:
Name different forms of the flow of capital.
Give the terms defining transnational corporations.
Explain the meaning of the terms expressing new forms of TNCs’ participation in foreign economies.
Ex. 2. Translate the following sentences into English in writing. Make use of the Vocabulary notes, if necessary.
До того как страна достигает точки самоподдерживающегося роста, она должна привлекать иностранные ресурсы.
Ресурсы из богатых стран в бедные приходят в форме иностранной помощи, частных инвестиций, а также ссуд частных банков. Другим видом передачи иностранных ресурсов является передача технологий, идей и знаний.
Большую роль в расширении экспорта товаров обрабатывающей промышленности из новых индустриальных стран играют транснациональные корпорации.
Большинство ТНК расположено в развитых странах.
Самой крупной страной происхождения ТНК являются США. Они же являются крупнейшей страной, принимающей прямые иностранные инвестиции.
Все ТНК являются фактически национальными фирмами, которые расширили свои операции за пределы национальных границ.
Число ТНК быстро увеличивается. Наиболее крупные фирмы расширяют деятельность своих зарубежных филиалов во многих странах.
В последнее время появились новые формы участия ТНК в зарубежной экономике: совместные предприятия, лицензирование, строительство «под ключ», международные субконтракты и другие договорные соглашения.
