In light of recession in the traditional markets of EU and USA, it becomes important to take an initiative to diversify our export markets and offset the inherent disadvantage for the exporters in emerging markets of Africa, Latin America, Oceania and CIS countries such as credit risks, higher trade costs etc., through appropriate policy instruments. New emerging markets have been given a special focus to enable competitive exports by deputing additional resources under the Market Development Assistance Scheme and Market Access Initiative Scheme. Further in light of various WTO agreements and initiatives taken by India towards signing of various regional and bilateral trading agreements, it does make sense for Indian exporters to consider diversifying from the traditional markets of USA, EU and Japan etc to new emerging economies including LAC, Africa,
ASEAN, Korea and other Asian markets etc.Understanding that the export diversification is the need of hour, both start- up companies as well as established firms are looking forward to the managers having an in-depth understanding of doing business across various global markets and thus enabling companies to develop customized business plan and market entry strategies and thus prove to be an asset for firm’s expansion plans. The couse thus coincides with the FTP declaration of doubling India’s exports of goods and services by 2020 through enhanced market access across the world and diversification of export markets be developing this requisite capability of understanding newer markets amongst our managers.The primary objective of the program therefore is to build knowledge on the key aspects of export/import management, for participants in different cities across India and in the neighboringcountries.
