MNB is a multinational IT company with headquarters in Asia and with operations in all continents. MNB is attempting to expand its operations in Europe. This is seen as a major challenge as the European market is very well developed and highly competitive. MNB develops and manufactures its own products. Parts and assemblies are sourced across Asia, America and Europe. These are sometimes purchased locally as a condition of a contract, but MNB aims to include as much of its own equipment as possible. Transfer prices between MNB's subsidiaries can be set in YEN, USD, EURO, GBP. Transfer prices are revised every month in line with
production times as most goods are made on short order with sales cycles running at 3-4 months.
