Botswana: A Diamond in the Rough Case Solution
From its independence up until the present day, Botswana has evolved from being among the world's poorest countries to becoming a secure, comfortable state, blessed with the greatest sustained growth rate on the planet.This case emphasizes the role that foreign direct investment (FDI) has played in this success, along with how powerful local associations have helped to exploit the advantages that the foreign investor--here, the giant De Beers business--has brought. Additionally, analyzes how Botswana managed to prevent the natural resource curse that has haunted so many other resource-abundant nations.
This is just an excerpt. This case is about GLOBAL BUSINESS
