I. The Importance of Globalization

Globalization is a new phenomenon after World War Ⅱ, of which the core is economic globalization. And at the same time, multinational enterprises from the emerging world are a relatively new phenomenon. Ten years ago, there were about 20 emerging multinationals on the Fortune Global 500 list, and three years ago, 70 were. According to UNCTAD, emerging multinationals takes up only 0.4% of world outward foreign direct investment in 1970,and then grew to 15.8% by 2008,among which China has seen the most dramatic and continuous growth. We can see the figures below. (Accenture,2008)

Economic globalization is today the product of world's economic and technological development, in some way, it adapts to the requirements for the further development of the productive forces, and rapidly promotes the development of national economy. But at the same time, the progress of the world economy also is a tremendous risk.

From a positive perspective of economic globalization for emerging multinationals:
First, it helps to rationally utilize and optimize the allocation of factors of domestic production. Second, it encourages the development of the international division of labor and enhances the international competitiveness. Third, it optimizes the economic structure to become much more reasonable and greatly improves productivity. Fourth, it promotes the development of a multipolar world of economy. In recent years, globalization makes it much easier to access to affordable finance, progressive liberalization of trade and investment rules, and advances in information and communications technology to give aspiring emerging multinationals more room to maneuver than ever before. In turn, emerging multinationals further promotes production and the internationalization of capital, also it promotes the deepening of the international division of labor and economic in the production, investment, trade, finance, technology development and other aspects of globalization, and promote the process of economic globalization and the world economy.
