4. Economic and monetary environments (e.g., economic system, balance of payments, currency system, economic and currency risks)

5. Cultural environment (e.g., major elements of culture, cultural dimensions).

6. Outline three major opportunities and three major challenges for doing business in the country by synthesizing the information you found when analyzing different environments.

7. Provide four to five guidelines for doing business successfully in the country given the identified opportunities and threats.
