1. Companies engaged in international business often face this issue. Typically, companies will turn to banks or investors to obtain financing. This works of course, but it can tie up other assets/collateral. What other options exist if you don't have enough collateral/credit to borrow from a bank; or can't attract investment because you don't have enough equity left?
2. Discuss one of the methods available to companies when seeking financial resources for their international production. What do you think the advantages of this method are? Would you change methods if operating in another country such as Brazil or South Africa?
3. Can payment methods be used as an asset/collateral? What other financing methods can be used?
