Product Description
A practical and well-balanced look at the opportunities and pitfalls ahead in emerging markets "Jeffrey Hooke has taken his years of experience in the field and produced a thoughtful and realistic guide to the business challenges of emerging markets. It is valuable reading for all who seek to do business in these economies."-James A. Harmon, former Chairman and President of the Export-Import Bank of the United States "Besides its insightful anecdotes about what it takes to do business and invest in the emerging markets, this book provides the reader with a solid foundation and practical guidelines to approach these markets with the requisite understanding of its hidden risks and opportunities. It is a must-read for neophytes and all those investors and decision-makers who intend to make these markets an integral part of their professional surroundings."-Andre J. Cracco, Director, Corporate Finance Services, World Bank Group "Eureka! A hard-biting account of many business realities in emerging markets. A must-read before you cross the border."-Andrea M. Esposito, Director, Standard & Poor's "An integral guide to the emerging markets. This book provides the reader with essential insights into the risks and opportunities of new economies."-James J.

Former investment banker Jeffrey C. Hooke now carries out financial deals in the developing world. He describes the potential for doing business or investing in the world's 156 emerging markets. Hooke is realistic about the great risks - such as unstable governments in impoverished countries - but he highlights future potential. His book is a solidly researched and clearly written guide to assessing the business climate and deciding what types of products make the most sense in different developing countries. After an overview of the nature of emerging markets, why companies want to participate in or avoid these markets, and how to invest and make loans there, he looks at particular markets in Latin America, Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa. We [...] recommend this worthy book to those considering working or investing in emerging markets, but academics or readers interested in how business is conducted in foreign places may also be intrigued.

The book provides a hard hitting summary of both the risks and opportunities of the developing countirs. It also included a lot of solutions to the problems one faces. I liked the way in which it addressed issues from an operating company, equity investor's, and lender's perspectives. Nobody else does that. The anecdotes on various regions were entertaining.
