Global Connection – May 2011
In this month’s edition, we again address the importance of addressing corruption – actual or perceived – from both a United States and United Kingdom perspective. We also present an article on reverse-mergers and the related international implications to global operations. In addition, we include an article on cross-border trucking issues and the continued barriers to NAFTA implementation. Finally, there are significant cultural issues that continue to impact cross-border transactions. Without an appreciation for the foreign culture, a business entering a market for the first time may not fully appreciate a country’s laws that are based on a cultural and societal perspective. As a result, we have also included an article on cross-border communications and the importance of cultural understanding.
