When talking about globalization, one can not ignore a phenomenon that many people relate to it almost instantly: the relocation. Lately it is impossible to read a newspaper, economic or otherwise, without the appearance of several articles on companies who leave for other locations. And this due to the free movement of people and capital .
is a process by firms involved in the positioning of their production processes (in whole or in part) in other countries where they hope to gain a higher return given the favorable conditions exist. The reasons why the company usually opt for this option are primarily economic: lower wage levels in the target countries, benefits in terms of lower taxation, labor laws more lax, the worst living conditions of workers will reduce them absenteeism, lower land prices and / or premises provided by countries to encourage companies stationed there and get some new jobs and improve the situation close to these industries, proximity to raw materials which would mean a reduction in transport costs ... That a company chooses this path, competitive conditions, creating a domino effect: if a company relocates, their competitors will probably be doing the same thing in order to remain competitive in the market.
However, if nearly all the competitive advantages of the new site are via costs should be borne in mind that introducing the goods produced in the EU they endure a series of levies (taxes, quotas, quotas) would diminish the effectiveness of the policy of relocation. Therefore, a very common practice is to produce separately the parts of the product abroad and then proceed to the assembly of parts within the EU to avoid such obstacles. The
competitive advantages can be obtained via satellite quality or price. Since that charges a person in Europe is 5 euros, and what you pay for equal work in China is 80 cents, it seems logical that the Europeans have lost the train through prices for jobs in labor intensive . Therefore, we specialize in knowledge-intensive activities, products of higher quality or design.
should be qualified, if not clear, the difference between outsourcing and internationalization : While at first the company changes its location, the second refers to the opening of the company to international markets as a strategy of expansion and how to increase customer base.
From the point of view of the firm based on production processes, outsourcing seems like a natural trend. Companies have the right to compete with all the means at its disposal, and thus appears as a great opportunity.
relocation Now it seems a negative phenomenon that increases the unemployment in our country, and we lose industries. However, do not forget that we complain of offshoring when there was a day that we benefit from it, when German or U.S. companies settled here.
