  • How will that affect your financial institution?
• What type of economic system does it have?
  • What is the history of that economic system?
• How is the country involved in international trade?
  • How does the government get involved in trade issues?
  • Will that help or hurt your financial institution?

• Is this country involved in any regional integration efforts? How so?
• Why did you choose this location for your bank?
• As a manager, what would be your overall assessment about whether you want to pursue opening an office there?
