Over the past years, multinational corporations have been discovering one rich foreign market after another, but different political structures and political events such as war, riots, expropriation, and revolutions have been affecting the opportunities in these markets. Such events have forced companies to become more sensitive to the political environment in which they operate. Many multinational companies are fraught with political risk. In recent years the experiences of many companies have perhaps been most visible. Their overseas operations have increasingly become the targets of political actions by host governments and by foreign opposition groups, both of which have had serious impacts on earning and profits.
The thesis of this study is that multinational corporations are facing greater political risk in their operations than ever, but the main question is how to engage in overseas operations and yet avoid or minimize political risk. In this study we will try to answer this question by determining the factors that a multinational corporation should account for in their analysis of political risk and how such factors affect their operations.
