Are Emerging Markets Catching Up with the Developed Markets in Terms of Consumption?By A.N.M Waheeduzzaman Presented by: Cassie Eyring, Nga Nguyen, and Rebecca Thompson
Introduction • Consumption Revolution in Emerging Nations • Consumption in Developed Nations has Slowed • Primary Goal of Study is investigating consumption convergence between 2 groups
Rise of Emerging Markets • Most of growth is recent (1980-2009) • Contributors • globalization supported by stabilization 1970's • Political Reforms in 1980's • Opening Up/ Liberalization of Markets 1980's • End of Cold War/Fall of Berlin Wall 1989 • Technology/Computer Revolution 1990's
Characteristics of Emerging Markets • Positive • Rapid Economic Growth • Fast Paced Modernization • Urbanization • Large Middle Class • Increased Consumer Expenditure
Increased Consumer Expenditure • Negative • Economic Growth Comes With • Growth of Urban Slums • Pollution • Environmental Degradation • Increasing Inequality • Confrontational Politics
Who are the “Emerging Markets”? • List is not 100% agreed upon • 12 BEM • Brazil, China, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Russia, South Korea, South Africa, Turkey • BRIC (subset of 12 BEM) • Brazil, Russia, India and China
Who are the “Developed Markets”? • G7 Nations • Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States • Most recently Russia ***In this study Russia is included in Emerging Nations
Understanding Convergence • 3 approaches of economists • β- convergence • σ- convergence • Conditional convergence
Convergence in International Marketing • International Marketing • Standard Adaptation (S-A) • Focuses on 4 P’s of marketing • “More standardized” = “More Convergence” • Diffusion Research • Innovators • Imitators
Convergence • For the purposes of this article we are going to refer to convergence like ECONOMISTS
Study Focus and Objective • Discuss Growth of Emerging Nations • Defines Consumption Convergence over 30 years • Determine influence of socioeconomic variables • Suggest implications and future direction
Time Growth Model • Explains presence of difference on a time horizon • Historical pattern of consumption • B- coefficient (slope) • Indicates direction of growth
Trend Difference Model • Captures change in variance • Difference between groups indicates convergence or divergence • Slope: trend or direction of growth • Variance • Dispersion • Regressed over time
Socioeconomic Influence Model • Influences on consumption convergence • Explains why convergence is taking place • 4 Variables • Per capita income • Per capita energy consumption • Life expectancy at birth • Per capita total trade
Methodology • Data collected • Global Market Information Database (GMID) • % as reported • Euromonitor International • % at household level • Expenditure amounts divided by total population and per capita expenditures
Overall Findings • Consumption is taking place but slowly • Brazil and Russia are catching up faster • China consumption power • PCI • strong influence in consumption convergence
Implications and Future Research • Investigating of consumption convergence between developed and emerging nations • TGMs • TDMs • SIMs
TGM Implications • Forecasting & indicating the difference among countries • Help understanding the lead-lag hypothesis • Determining the order of countries for enter strategy.
TDM Implications • Forecasting, market penetration/saturation purposes • By setting TGMs managers can estimate the level of saturation of markets. • Determine the penetration strategy based on the level of market saturation
SIMs Implications • Socioeconomic variables used for market segmenting and country profiling • The influences of variables used for predictive purposes
Similarities and Differences in Models • Similarities • All are linear models • Penetration strategy • Differences • TGM and TDM are time series models; SIM is a causal model • All explain from a different perspective
Future Research • Investigating other time frames, more variables and countries • Planning economic strategies for different countries • Application for international organization
Conclusion • Explore the consumption convergence hypothesis in international markets • Consumption convergence is taking place but the rate is very slow
Conclusion – Interpreted with Cautions • The model carries both economic and social- cultural aspects • Considering the impact of globalization Understand better the consumption convergence idea in this study
