13 Is Your Job Next? By 2015 – roughly 3.3 million U.S. business processing jobs will have moved offshore U.S. service jobs lost to offshoring will increase at a rate of 30% to 40% over next five years Software developers - $60/hr in U.S. vs $6/hr in India

14 Is offshoring a good thing or not? For Canada?

21 Foreign Direct Investment’s Effect on Developing countries

22 Competition Boosts Productivity

23 Exploding the Myths of Offshoring – Mckinsey June 2004 Benefits to NA Corporate savings Deal for consumers Additional exports Repatriated profits Productivity & new jobs??? Challenge – address those displaced in the transition

24 Don’t Blame Trade for US Job Losses – Mckinsey 2005 2.85 mil manufacturing jobs lost in US during 2000-2003 Why? 11% or 314,000 due to trade – offshore imports Real contributor – weak domestic demand, rapid productivity growth, dollar’s strength which hurt exports Solutions – stimulate domestic demand, cut deficit,push countries with artificially cheap currencies to appreciate against the US$, trade- adjustment-assistance programs

25 Another Concern – Innovation Blowback Wal-Mart stores imports from China – 1% of GDP – company is helping Chinese manufacturers target shoppers in US & Europe Citigroups Chinese M&A unit – outbound deals make up lion share of its pipeline Western companies serving low-income customers in emerging markets are using that experience to address needs of value segments in developed markets

26 Product & Process Innovation to Address Broader Emerging Market Needs Production-driven modularity – process networks – e.g., motorcycles Customer-driven modularity – Cummins engines/generators Process-driven services – Aravind Eye Care System in India Key message to Westerners – if you are participating in the mass-market segment of emerging economies, you are not developing the capabilities you will need to compete at home
