 IMPACT OF MULTINATIONAL COMPANIES ON PAKISTAN’s
INTERNATIONAL TRADE
According to Peter Drucker the period of the most rapid growth of multinational
trade was ------- fifties & sixties. During this period, the world trading economy grew
faster – at an annual rate of 15% or so in most years.

The multinationals have invested Rs. 60 million in Pakistan. Initially, the British
and European trading and business houses had taken the lead as they had been present
in this area for a long time. It is estimated that between 1/4th of manufactured goods
now moving in world trade are being shipped from one branch to another branch of the
MNCs

There was a very significant increase in the export intensity (i.e., the percentage
of exports to total sales) of the foreign affiliates of many MNCs.

The export intensity of foreign affiliates of US MNCs doubled from 20 to 40% in

the case of developed economies.

It also increased from 6 to 22% in the case of Latin American affiliates.It increased
from 23 to 64% for developing Asia.But in the case of Pakistan, it is very low. More than
40% of the total exports of China is done by MNCs affiliates.

Multinationals in several developing countries make substantial contribution to

export earnings. However, the performance in the case of Pakistan has been very
dismal. This is attributed mostly to the government policy.

Although export promotion has been pursued since the Third plan, the highly
protected domestic market & the unrealistic much more attractive than exports.

However, since the mid 1980s with the economic liberalization that increased
domestic competition & the steady depreciation of the rupee, exports began to become
attractive & several foreign companies & companies with foreign participation, as well
as Pakistan.
