Many key indicators including exports and imports, Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) and the number of cross-border workers have grown rapidly during the last decades. This trend of Free Trade and Globalization is promoted by international institutions such as the World Trade Organization (WTO), the World Bank, and OECD which believe in the spread of market based economy to assure prosperity in the world. But above all, this period marks the supremacy of the Multinational Enterprises (MNEs). Their economies are comparable - in both range and importance - to those of small countries, and they offer thousands of jobs world wide. We, as members of SysBra S.A’s negotiation team, are aware of this phenomenon but believe that there is still a place for local firms in world economy and trade, and that we can share the fruits of the globalization. The key point to utilize is the sustainable comparative advantage. The attractiveness of our local market, determined by its size, market, education, costs etc., combined with our know-how gives us the opportunity to develop a strong partnership with a MNE which wants to invest in Brazil.
