You might think that emerging country companies are more ready to address the needs of and win customers in other emerging markets. Indeed, India’s Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. is expanding rapidly via acquisitions of Issue Group and Cosmetica Nacional in Latin America, while China’s Huawei has a large direct presence in India’s telecom market. But we believe that multinationals from rich countries who are already developing products for one emerging market possess unique advantages that can help them win in other emerging markets too.
