  4. BASIC DETERMINANTS OF COMPETITIVENES 1. Factor conditions. 2. Demand conditions. • Related and supporting industries. • Firm strategy, structure and rivalry.

  5. Factor Conditions: • Labor (qualified and non-qualified) • Natural resources, land; • Capital • Technology and Knowledge Base • Infrastructure Factors: • Non-key or general use • Specialised (more difficult to duplicate)

  6. Demand Conditions. • Quantitative and Qualitative Characteristics • Consumers and Industrial Demand Sophisticated domestic market – important element.

  8. “Diamond” as a System • Non-key factors as a base for the specialised • Concentration offactors depends on the demand • Internal competitivenessis a motivation for the better use of factors

  9. Factor Stage • Comparative advantage, virtually all internationally successful industries in the nation draw their advantage from basic factors of production eg natural resources, favourable growing conditions, or abundant and inexpensive pool of labour. • Compete on the basis of price. • Technology is drawn largely from other nations and not created.

  10. Investment Driven Stage • Standardized, price sensitive products • technology, usually obtained overseas is a little dated but is increasingly not just applied, but improved on. • Intense domestic competition and early stages of internationalization • Successful industries are those where the nation has strong home demand Government may play a leading role in facilitating and undertaking investment.

  11. Innovation Driven Stage • Diamond interaction • Reliance on higher-order factors • Compete in differentiated industry segments • Government's role more limited in this stage as the appropriate signals emanate from the private sector. Most effective policies indirect e.g. stimulating more advanced factors, preserving domestic rivalry, improving the quality of domestic demand.

  12. Wealth Driven Stage • Drift and ultimate decline, due to: • ebbing rivalry • focus on preserving rather than improving position • lobbying to insulate position through government protection
