Abstract

This case focuses on the different types of competitive advantage Chinese multinational enterprises investing in developing economies can have, with a particular focus on a state-owned multinational and the role played by the Chinese government in the company’s internationalisation process. It examines the characteristics of the institutional environment in developing economies that pose challenges for foreign firms, how emerging market multinationals in general, and Chinese multinationals in particular, navigate extreme institutional conditions in developing economies and how the characteristics of the home-country institutional environment in China effects the location strategies of Chinese state-owned firms.
