OPENING THE DOOR IN THE EAST TO WESTERN CAPITAL
Many companies in Eurasia are looking to the West for capital, expertise, and much more these days. But few actually have the necessary experience, contacts, and knowledge to acquire them. The rapid growth and development of Eurasia’s economies and a resurgence of its domestic markets has sprawled the need for additional financial resources in the form of loans, investments, and other financial instruments. Western companies can also take advantage of the exciting opportunities currently available in Eurasia. This article shows the way for both.
A Limited Impact on Private Sector Development
Since the beginning of the process in 1990, the number of privatisations through public flotation has been only 4 per cent of total transactions. Moreover, the trend is downward, confirming the difficulty in African countries of building stock exchanges and capital markets, still often used by governments to raise loan finance rather than capital for industry.
Developing African Capital Markets
In his introductory remarks, moderator John Hanson, Managing Editor, Business & Financial Times, Ghana, noted that African development needed capital, yet capital is very scarce. The answer is for the continent to develop well functioning capital markets. There has been some progress, but not enough, due to many barriers.

Commercial Properties Being Written Down by 50%
The CCIM Institute and the Real Estate Research Corporation recently reported that the commercial real estate recovery has become dependent on, and stands precariously linked to, the re-pricing and deleveraging of property positions, and less contingent on access to capital, given that liquidity has returned to the commercial real estate markets, and in some cases, is scarily reminiscent of the pre-credit crisis capital market environment.

Equity Investors Turn to Development Opportunities
But some of that pent-up equity waiting on the sidelines may re-adjust its expectations in the second half by shifting away from acquisitions and to new development in high-barrier markets. Many institutional partners are having trouble sourcing higher return acquisition opportunities, especially in high-barrier markets, and as a result, they’re turning back toward development.
Target Sales Focus
In my sales development and business coaching work, I repeatedly see one shortcoming at the heart of my clients’ failure to thrive: a failure to focus on the narrowly defined, high ROI markets and product/service offerings that will help them secure greater market share and niche dominance that’s hard to budge in any economic climate. In the ebook, Target Sales Focus, I deconstruct the myths that encourage too many managers and CEOs to dilute their sales efforts on markets that are too broad, and then detail a step-by-step plan to concentrate their resources on targeted markets that deliver more – and more predictable – sales.
