b. Organisational Structuring and Preparation for Cross Border Expansion
Once the internationalisation strategy is planned and formulated, a number of structural considerations
need to be addressed in order to ensure the right organisational platform is in place to support the
execution. International operations would usually require their own structures and organisational issues
to adhere to local regulations. The smooth integration and interfacing of these structures with the parent
company set up would be a key aspect in the overall company extension and culture. Our team will
support the management in addressing such organisational considerations, including among others:
Operational set up among the parent company and the overseas operation
Financial implications and impact of the overseas operations on the parent company financial
positioning and financial support requirements
Human resources selection and structure set up to allow for the parent company culture and
identity to be maintained and built up further.
Approaching service providers in the target market to help with incorporation and related
corporate actions
Strategically advising the management on their negotiations with local venture partners, suppliers
and business related stakeholders
Ongoing market insights and introductions to commercial growth opportunities as per the
identified strategy
