Managing an IJV involves handling and formulating complex structures, dealing with cultural differences and coordinating business activities across international boundaries.

To assist the reader in recognizing how to avoid problems before they occur, he gives examples of the types of business practice that have caused failure within the IJV arena. Written for CEOs and directors of large and middle market companies, this book gives the reader a realistic insight into the world of IJV management, covering: * Trends; * Co-operation; * Objectives; * IJV structure; * Control; * Finance; * Agreements; * Disputes. Highly illustrated, with charts and diagrams to aid understanding, Managing International Joint Ventures is an indispensable guide for ensuring stable, profitable and successful IJVs of the future.
