    Managing Subsidiary - Host-Country interdependence



    1.MNCs usually reserve the key managerial and technical positions for expatriates. As a result, they do not contribute to the development of host-country personnel.
    2.MNCs do not adapt their technology to the conditions that exist in host countries.
    3.MNCs concentrate their research and development activities at home, restricting the transfer of modern technology and know-how to host countries.
    4.MNCs start their foreign operations by purchasing existing firms rather than by developing new productive facilities in host countries.
    5.MNCs are not accountable to their host nations but only respond to home-country governments; they are not concerned with host-country plans for development.
    —Managing Subsidiary - Host-Country interdependence
    —MNCs Benefits & Costs to Host Countries
    —Recommendations for MNCs Operating in and Doing Business with Developing Countries
    1.Do no intentional harm. This includes respect for the integrity of the ecosystem and consumer safety.
    2.Produce more good than harm for the host country.
    3.Contribute by their activity to the host country’s development.
    4.Respect the human rights of their employees.
    5.To the extent that local culture does not violate ethical norms, respect the local culture and work with and not against it.
    6.Pay fair share of taxes.
