EUROPEAN COMPANIES HAVE A GLOBAL COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE


Europe based companies have demonstrated strong competitive advantage in several areas such as engineering, pharmaceuticals, consumer business etc. This is validated by the fact that they are the biggest exporters. In fact, companies in Europe export more than the combined total of North and South America, the Middle East and Africa.

INTERNATIONAL DIVERSIFICATION INTO ONE OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST REGIONAL EQUITY MARKETS
