India to produce more MNCs than any other country: PwC


India is expected to produce the highest number of new multinational companies (MNCs), overtaking China as the emerging world's largest such source. Over 2,200 Indian companies are likely to open operations outside the country over the next 15 years, says a new report by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on emerging MNCs.

The report says the number of companies from emerging markets choosing to set up operations abroad has increased in the past five years, partly due to the rapid pace of globalisation and the revolution in information and communication technologies. This trend is expected to continue over the next 15 years, as new MNCs from emerging economies rise in prominence on the global economic stage.

Indian and Chinese companies would lead the way in seeking new markets abroad, who will be joined by companies from Singapore, Russia, Malaysia and South Korea, who will continue to produce a large number of new MNCs.

Jairaj Purandare, India Leader for Markets and Industries, PwC, said: "It is encouraging to know that India will replace China as the largest source of new multinationals in the emerging world from 2018 onwards. The key drivers for this are the relative increase in both investment intensity and openness that the Indian economy offers."

PwC used econometric techniques to project the number of new MNCs that would arise from a representative sample of 15 emerging economies over the next 15 years. The countries were: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Hungary, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Ukraine and Vietnam.

India, China to produce most multinationals - report

India, China to produce most multinationals - report

MUMBAI (Reuters) - Indian and Chinese firms, seeking resources and new overseas markets as they expand, will lead a host of new multinational firms from emerging economies over the next 15 years, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers.

The number of companies from emerging markets that have set up operations overseas has increased over the last five years as their economies expanded, and with the easing of trade barriers, enabling them to outpace sluggish developed markets, it said.

"This is further evidence that companies from emerging markets will play an important role in the post-recession global economy," said Jairaj Purandare, PWC's India leader for markets and industries.

The report counted 613 new multinational companies from 15 key emerging economies in the year 2008, up from 352 in 2005. China, with its increasing economic clout, had the most MNCs.

Russia, south-east Asia and Korea also added multinationals in large numbers and will continue to do so, the report said.

"Size matters; the countries with the largest economies in the sample, China, India and Korea ... also produced the most new multinationals," Purandare said, adding that trade openness also matters, with Singapore and Malaysia outpacing Brazil and Russia.

Indian companies including automakers such as Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra, as well as Tata Tea have entered overseas markets through a series of big-ticket acquisitions in recent years.

More than 2,200 Indian companies are expected to open operations overseas over the next 15 years, overtaking China because of easing foreign investment rules, Purandare said.

"The key drivers are the relative increase in investment intensity and the openness the Indian economy offers," he said.

While some recent deals, including mobile operator Bharti Airtel's with South Africa's MTN have been in other emerging markets, there will be a shift away from this trend, with firms favouring developed markets, Purandare said.

And, despite the current race for oil and mining assets, more firms will operate in high-value manufacturing and services.

China and India will still account for 42 percent of the new multinationals over the next 15 years, perhaps because of the projected fast pace of economic growth for both, with India overtaking China in producing multinationals from 2018, he said.

"The reason that India edges out China, despite slower forecast growth, is its likely relative increase in both investment intensity and openness, which (we) have found to be key drivers of the creation of new multinationals," he said.

By contrast, China's current level of investment intensity is unlikely to be sustainable in the long term, he said, with domestic demand also expected to help hold down trade openness.

This is the current list and it has nothing to do with this thread, i don't want to compare it to what chinese are doing. Since there are no Indian companies on the list no one needs to worry.

You said that Chinese MNC's are in the low-cost manufacturing biz. Clearly, the largest ones are NOT.
This thread has to do with the number of MNC's in the future , no more off topic discussion, yes you are right Chinese are advancing beyond their traditional economic base.
