2:Geely’s acquisition of Volvo,Can Geely compete in the global car market?
CASE QUESTION
In March 2010, Chinese car maker Geely (a Chinese word meaning lucky) signed a deal to buy Volvo from the US auto giant Ford for US$1.8 billion. The acquisition is considered fresh evidence of foreign direct investment (FDI) being made by Chinese car makers in a bid to gain access to international markets and Western technology. The Volvo deal placed Geely – which was barely known outside of China – in the spotlight. It also raised questions just how ready Geely was to be a major player on the global stage.
Do you think Geely’s strategy to acquire an extremely well-established Western automobile manufacturer can help the company to gain competitive advantages in the global car market? And why?
