Modes of Entry<br />

1. Equity International Joint Ventures<br />

Equity International Joint Ventures (EIJV) is defined as ―a separate legal<br />

organizational entity representing partial holdings of two or more parent firms,<br />

in which the headquarter of at least one is located outside the country of<br />

operations of the joint venture‖ (Zeira and Newburry, 1999).<br />

Equity International Joint Ventures (JV‘s) are a very popular entry mode,<br />

especially in the Middle East & Asia/Pacific area.<br />

The main idea after an EIJV is that transaction costs of entering in any foreign<br />

market are much lower than establishing a wholly owned subsidiary.<br />

The entering firm is able to benefit from the local partners knowledge of the<br />

host Country‘s competitive conditions, culture, language, political and<br />

business systems.<br />
