Feasibility studies most new Projects / new Companies start with ….
A “feasibility study” can be defined as a controlled process for iden6fying problems and opportuni6es, determining objec6ves, describing situa6ons, defining successful outcomes and assessing the range of costs / benefits associated with a project.
It is conducted during the delibera6on phase of the business development cycle prior to commencement of a formal Business Plan. It is an analy6cal tool that includes recommenda6ons and limita6ons, which are u6lized in the decision making process.
5
The “Business Feasibility Study, BFS” is mainly used to support the decision making process based on a cost-‐benefit analysis of the actual business of project viability.
It is es6mated that few ideas are actually commercially viable.
Then a BFS is an effec6ve way to safeguard against wastage of further investment or resources.
If a project is then feasible, the next step should be moving to a Business Plan.

FDI plays a growing role in global business. It can provide a firm with new markets and marke6ng channels, cheaper produc6on facili6es, access to new technology, products, skills and financing.
For a host country or the foreign firm which receives the investment, it can provide a source of new technologies, capital, processes, products, organiza6onal technologies and management skills.
Foreign direct investment is defined as a company from one country making a physical investment into building a factory in another country. The direct investment in buildings, machinery and equipment is in contrast with making a porbolio investment, which is considered an indirect investment.
It may take many forms, such as a direct acquisi6on of a foreign firm, construc6on of a facility, or investment in a joint venture or strategic alliance with a local firm with aUendant input of technology, licensing of intellectual property, etc.

Business reorganization restructuring of a Business
In the legal context, a corpora6on with serious financial difficul6es may be given 6me to reorganize while being protected from creditors by the bankruptcy court of law. The court aims to help a company with a viable plan to make money an opportunity to aUempt repayment to creditors, who might otherwise be lee with no assets to collect from.
The laws of the Bankruptcy Code provide a process for rehabilita6ng the company’s faltering business. Some6mes the company successfully works out a plan to return to profitability; some6mes, in the end, it liquidates.
Under a legal reorganiza6on, a company usually keeps doing business.
