Мухаммед Умар Инува роль транснациональных корпораций

Conclusion 
Also, transnational corporations keep 
increasing investment levels and income in 
Nigeria , promote improvement in their 
immediate environment, create access to 
high quality managerial skills, improve the 
balance of payment of host countries by 
increasing exports and decreasing imports; 
help to equalize the costs of factors of pro-
duction. They stimulate domestic produc-
tion and enhance efficiency and effective-
ness in the production process; stimulate 
positive responses from local operators. 
Most well-known Nigerian entrepreneurs 
started by working for transnational corpo-
rations, where they acquired relevant skills 
and knowledge that gave them the impetus 
to launch out. Also, Nigerian government 
have being been able to expand their tax 
base through the generated income of 
transnational firms. Tax paid by foreign 
firms has been used to provide infrastruc-
tures and boost up the economy of the na-
tion. Nigeria has benefitted from foreign 
direct investment than any other country in 
West Africa because it is major recipient 
of foreign direct investment in the region. 
As some authors mark, «leading 
multinational corporations are the flagships 
of global processes of building intellectual 
capital, because they are the focus of tech-
nological priorities, development and im-
plementation of innovations, technologies, 
business models, and integrated knowledge 
management systems. Intellectual capital, 
which is created and operates within the 
framework of transnational business struc-
tures, is of particular importance in context 
of increasing global competition. Embod-
ied in knowledge, experience (soft skills) 
and results of creative work of highly qual-
ified personnel, it becomes a key factor 
determining the effectiveness and competi-
tiveness of TNCs» [8]. 
Transnational corporations have 
spurred up economic activities in Nigeria.
