- Synopsis
- In an effort to retain more corporate earnings, exercise more managerial control, and meet demands of local constituents, governments worldwide are seeking greater domestic ownership of foreign subsidiaries within their borders. A study of corporate responses to India's Foreign Exchange Regulation Act of 1973 (FERA) shows that multinational corporations facing forced equity dilutions have at least four strategic options available: strict compliance, exit, negotiation, and preemptive action. Certain practical considerations limit management's strategic options: the implications of setting a precedent, the corporation's decision-making structure, the level of bargaining power, the political climate, and management's own biases.
