Bankernas förhållningssätt inom ett förändrat serviceekosystem : En kvalitativ studie om bankernas strategiska allians med FinTech-bolag inom ett förändrat serviceekosystem / Banks’ advances within a changed service ecosystem

Jonasson, Viktor, Knutsson, Oliver, Liljestrand, Anna January 2022 (has links)
Forskningsfrågor: Hur kan traditionella banker etablera strategiska allianser med FinTech-bolag i ett förändrat serviceekosystem? Hur kan traditionella banker med hjälp av coopetition med FinTech-bolag skapa värde till slutanvändare? Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur svenska banker följer med i den digitala samhällsutvecklingen i och med ett förändrat serviceekosystem genom att etablera strategiska allianser med FinTech-bolag, som kan leda till utveckling av innovativa lösningar. Detta för att möta kundernas förändrade kravbild om bankernas tjänster. Metod: I denna studie användes en kvalitativ forskningsmetod som baseras på banker i Sverige. Kvalitativa data samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer, där den empiriska data analyserades med en tematisk analys med hjälp av utvalda teorierna.  Slutsats: Etablering av strategiska allianser sker genom liknande eller samma värderingar, tillsammans med ett grundbehov och en problembakgrund hos båda aktörerna för att gemensamt kunna ge ett utbyte av värde. Coopetition med FinTech-bolag kommer att skapa värde till slutanvändare genom förmågan att skapa nya lösningar och tjänster som till slut ger värde till slutanvändare. / Research questions: How can traditional banks establish strategic alliances with FinTech-companies within a changed service ecosystem? How can traditional banks coopete with FinTech-companies, to deliver value to the end users? Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate to what extent Swedish banks establish strategic alliances with FinTech-companies to adapt to the digital societal development driven by a changed service ecosystem. This has a possibility of resulting in a development of innovative solutions which is crucial to meet customers' changing demands for the bank's services. Method: A qualitative research method, based on banks located in Sweden, is used for the thesis. The qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews and the empirical data was analysed through a thematic analysis with help from selected theories. Conclusion: The establishment of strategic alliances occurs through similar or equal values, accompanied by a basic need and a problem background that exists within both actors to jointly provide exchange of value. Coopetition with FinTech-companies allows to create value for the end-users through the ability to introduce new solutions and services

Ionescu, Vivianne, Öman, Victor January 2021 (has links)
Purpose: The purpose of the study is to extend the knowledge on how Swedish companies canbecome more embedded in the Chinese market by building relationships with political actors. Research question: How do Swedish managers develop and maintain relations with politicalactors in China, and how do they perceive the outcomes from such relations? Method: Qualitative approach with semi-structured interviews. Results: The results of the study shows that managers initially use local middlemen orconsultancies to get in contact with political actions. Further, they participate in variousactivities to build upon and develop that relationship, something that is argued by therespondents to be more time-consuming and extensive than in western countries. The outcomeof having these relationships is that firm could gain a competitive edge and the managers tobecome more efficient in their role. Contribution: This study contributes with additional research to the Extended BusinessNetwork and relationship building with non-business actors in China from a Swedishmanagerial perspective.

O uso das práticas de gestão econômica e financeira permite aos gestores a avaliação das ações implementadas e a obtenção de informações necessárias para a tomada de decisão. Para a obtenção dos dados sobre a utilização dessas práticas pelas redes de empresas, foi utilizada a técnica de levantamento de dados por meio de entrevistas estruturadas, aplicadas em 21 redes de empresas do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, que compuseram a amostra da pesquisa. O instrumento de coleta de dados abordou aspectos referentes a motivos da formação das redes de empresas; forma de escolha dos associados; estrutura e formalização das redes; práticas de gestão econômica e financeira; governança corporativa; características gerais das redes e perfil dos respondentes. Os dados coletados foram submetidos à análise descritiva, na qual se calculou o Ranking Médio de utilização, bem como percentuais de graus de utilização, ambos baseados nas respostas obtidas na escala Likert. Foi realizada ainda a análise fatorial com intuito de reduzir o número de variáveis e formar fatores, os quais foram submetidos a múltiplas correlações bivariadas no intuito de verificar a relação entre estes. Baseado nessas análises pode-se constatar que as redes de empresas são constituídas com o objetivo principal de aumentar a competitividade, minimizar custos e obter parcerias. Constatou-se que 76% da amostra é formada por associações, e que as redes que possuem volume de transações superior a R$ 10 milhões/ano utilizam as práticas de gestão econômica e financeira com maior intensidade do que as que possuem um volume inferior. Com relação às práticas de gestão econômica e financeira, verificou-se que as cotações de preços com fornecedores potenciais e o fluxo de caixa são as mais utilizadas pela amostra. Os resultados permitem supor, ainda, que quando se trata de gestão econômica e financeira de redes o foco está voltado para o curto prazo, visto que na classificação dos rankings, as três primeiras colocações apresentam esta indicação. / The objective of the present study was to identify which practices of economic and financial management are used by business networks in Rio Grande do Sul. The usage of practices of the economic and financial management allows the evaluation of the actions as well as the obtainment of needed information for decision-making. Structured interviews were used to obtain the data about the usage of these practices.The interviews were applied to 21 business networks in Rio Grande do Sul, which composed the sample of this research. The data collection instrument took into account the aspects referring to the reasons of business network formation; different forms on choosing the associates; structure and formalization of the networks; practices of economic and financial management; corporate governance; general characteristics of networks and respondents’ profile. The data collected was submitted to the descriptive analysis where middle ranking and the percentage of usage were calculated based on the answers obtained on the Likert scale. The factorial analysis was performed in order to reduce the number of variables as well as to form factors which underwent multiple bivariate correlations in order to examine the relationship among them. Based on these analyses, it was possible to verify that business networks are established to increase competitiveness, reduce costs and achieve partnerships. It was found that 76% of the sample is composed of associations, and that the networks that have transaction value exceeding R$ 10 million per year used the practices of economic and financial management with greater intensity than those with less volume. With respectto the practices of economic and financial management, it was found that the price quotation with potential suppliers and cash flow are most used by the sample. The results suggest that, when it comes to economic and financial management of networks, the focus is on short term, since the first three positions have this statement in the rankings classification.

SSAB Global Business Development : A Study of the International Marketing Expansion Model for HWP in China

Löwgren, Josefina Jie January 2013 (has links)
The purpose of the research is to assess if the franchising conceptual model is an applicable model for the HWP international market expansion in China.  The assessment will be carried out through the extensive investigations into SSAB/HWP internal and external forces including transfer of knowledge in the MNC, position building in business networks, products positioning and sales situation on the Chinese market to define the risk and opportunity.  As well as the theories of the internationalization, marketing strategy and models will be referred to evaluate the franchising model, which can be adopted in China. The research questions are how can the franchising concept be adopted as an applicable model for the Hardox Wearparts international market expansion in China?  What are the appropriate suggestions for the improvements to the further implementation of the model? By adopting four research methods of qualitative research strategy, a multidimensional purpose of the research has been conducted in order to gather first-hand data, study a specific case and investigate the multidimensional environments for the implementation of the HWP international market expansion model.  The main research methods include 1) questionnaire & survey, 2) qualitative interviewing, 3) observation, and 4) collection and qualitative analysis of texts, document, e- research materials and data. The conclusion of the research is that there are several internal- and external factors, which have affected the HWP´s market expansion in China negatively during the year.  It is a sensible decision to emphasize China as a single largest market for the HWP business development. The market seeking strategy by the infusion of the franchising concept is an appropriate decision for the HWP market expansion in China.  The conceptual franchising model by SSAB is appropriate to both the theoretical model and Chinese regulation on the franchises.  However, to implement this franchising model in China, it requires several significant improvements on those four key components/success factors which are 1) internationalization entry model, 2) transfer of knowledge within the MNC, 3) learning in the foreign market network, and 4) position-building in the business networks.   Together with the improvements on four key components/success factors, the franchising concept will be an applicable model for the HWP international market expansion in China.

Synergi? : En studie av några industriföretag

Holtström, Johan January 2009 (has links)
Synergi är viktigt i samband med fusioner och förvärv. Utgångspunkten är att synergi, i både teori och praktik, används för att skapa olika typer av mervärden. Fusioner och förvärv är frekvent förekommande i företagande och det är många olika aktörer som berörs av sådana förändringar, t.ex. anställda, företagsledningar och ägare. Företagsintegrationer kan antas påverka de företag som är involverade i fusionen eller förvärvet. Även andra aktörer som kunder och leverantörer kan komma att påverkas av den förändring som en fusion eller ett förvärv innebär. Det finns därför skäl att studera förhållandet mellan skapande av synergi och företagsintegrationer. Avhandlingens inriktning är att i vid bemärkelse studera synergibegreppet för att ytterligare öka förståelsen av synergi, både inom ett företag samt i företagets affärsnätverk. Syftet med avhandlingen är att utveckla hur synergi kan realiseras inom företaget och i affärsrelationer till kunder och leverantörer i samband med fusioner och förvärv. Baserat på fusioner och förvärv bland industriföretag analyseras i avhandlingens första del hur och om synergi kan realiseras inom ett integrerande företag. Ett resultat av studien är att synergi inom ett företag sammanfattningsvis kan sägas vara ett resultat av ett samspel mellan skapande av mervärden, samstämmighet mellan strategiska prioriteringar och funktionellt genomförande. Synergi inom ett företag kan sägas vara något som en företagsledning planerar med avsikt att genomföra. Företaget är i centrum och avsikten är att förändra och påverka omgivningen för anpassning till de nya förutsättningar som finns. I en sådan miljö finns andra aktörer, som kunder och leverantörer. Det finns därför ett intresse att också studera hur och om synergi i en affärsrelation kan uppstå. Synergi i ett fusionerande eller förvärvande företags affärsnätverk är en breddning av synergibegreppet till att också omfatta relationen mellan företag. Avhandlingens andra del studerar detta. Det är viktigt att ha ett vidare perspektiv på vad en förändring får för konsekvens i skapande av synergi i ett integrerande företags relation till andra aktörer, som kunder och leverantörer. Synergi i relation kan uttryckas som det samlade resultatet av hur aktörerna anpassar sig till förändringar, hur förändringen påverkar beroendeförhållanden, i vilken utsträckning det sker en koordinering av aktiviteter och hur detta sker i interaktion över tiden. Avhandlingen kombinerar också de två perspektiven på synergi i förhållande till utvecklingen över tiden. Inom det integrerande företaget kan synergi framstå som planerad i integrationens tidiga faser eller ske framväxande över tiden. I det integrerande företagets relation till andra aktörer kan synergi i relation förekomma genom påverkan i integrationens tidiga faser. Det är något som de integrerande bolagen planerar att genomföra i relation till andra aktörer. Synergi i relation kan över tiden ske i interaktion mellan affärsnätverkets aktörer. Synergi genom interaktion handlar om att det integrerande företaget initierar en förändring genom sammanslagningen och de olika aktörerna anpassar sig över tiden till de förändringar som sker. Anpassning är inte en passivitet utan ett uttryck för både aktion och reaktion. Avslutningsvis diskuteras praktiska implikationer av studien. Vid fusioner och förvärv kan det vara av intresse att beakta vad de integrerande företagens agerande får för konsekvenser i relation till andra aktörer samtidigt som den egna verksamheten utreds. Processmedvetenhet innebär att en kedja av aktiviteter startas och att det kan få betydelse för vilket resultat förändringen får över tiden. Stabilitet och beroenden mellan aktörerna påverkas genom de fusioner och förvärv som sker. Fusioner och förvärv kan fungera som drivkraft för att skapa tillväxt hos andra aktörer. Den operativa verksamheten hos andra aktörer kan också påverkas genom de förändringar som sker i en fusion eller ett förvärv. / Synergy is of fundamental interest in mergers and acquisitions. The point of departure in this thesis is that synergy, both theoretically as well as in practice, is used to describe different types of value creation. Mergers and acquisitions is a frequent phenomenon in business and many actors will be affected by such changes, e.g. employees, company management and owners. Company integrations can be assumed to affect the involved actors in the merger or acquisition. Also other actors such as customers and suppliers can be affected by the change a merger or acquisition creates in the business network. This background is of interest in the study of the relationship between synergy and company integrations. The thesis studies synergy as a concept to enhance the understanding of synergy, within a company and in the integrating companies’ business network. The aim with the thesis is to elaborate on how synergy is implemented in mergers and acquisition and in business relationships with customers and suppliers. Based on mergers and acquisitions among industrial companies the realisation of synergy within a company is analysed. The thesis concludes that synergy is the result of the interplay between creating value, alignment between strategic prioritisations and functional performance. Synergy within a company is something the company management plans and intends to carry out. The integrating companies are at the centre and the intention is to affect the companies’ business environment. In the integrating companies business environment there are actors such as customers and suppliers. These actors are also of interest when studying synergy realisation. Synergy in the business network of a merging or acquiring company can be seen as broadening the concept of synergy. The thesis concludes that synergy as a concept also should include relationships in business networks. Thus, creating synergy includes the integrating companies as well as their business relationships with other actors, such as customers and suppliers. Synergy in business relationships can be seen as the result of how companies adapts to changes in the business network, how the changes affects interdependency among actors, in what extent there is a co-ordination of activities between actors, but most importantly how this is carried out over time. The thesis also combines the two perspectives on synergy with the development over time. Within the integrating companies, synergy appears in two forms, as planned in the early phases of integration and, as emerging over time. In the integrating companies’ business relationship synergy can appear as something planned by the integrating companies to purposely influence other actors. Synergy in business relationships can also appear when different actors adapt over time to these changes. The adaptation is not a passiveness but an expression of action and reaction. For practitioners, consequences of merging and acquiring companies’ integration are of interest to take into account in the business relationship to other actors. Companies need to be aware of the integration process. Mergers and acquisitions start a chain of activities. Over time, this can affect the potential result of the integration. Stability and dependence between different actors are also affected. Mergers and acquisitions can be a driving force for other actors needs to create growth. Other actors operating activities can also be affected by the changes initiated by a merger or an acquisition.
