credit cards accordingly • Learning curve on demand side & cost side
Opportunities Threats

Country Managers
• Risk-averse and reluctant to handle card product
• Tie compensation to product
• Compensate for long term vision
• Local currency (Jagpal, NB chapter 23)
• 4 Component Parts of Compensation
– Base wage
– Share of NPV of after tax operating cash flow
– Share of NPV of tax shield
– Share of real options of product
• Above mix changes per country and per period!

Recommendations
• Use a staged roll out plan introducing each of three groups at 6-9 month
intervals (Australia, Singapore, Taiwan first).
• Opt for a test market initially, followed by multi-country entry.
• The presence of cost and demand dynamics must be considered when
formulating pricing strategy, and Citibank may choose to learn from first
movers errors.
• For uncertain marketplaces, use Real Option Valuation model.
• Build centralized data processing center before entering test market.
(Citi absorbs initial $35 MM investment)
– Establish specific credit card business independent from other
business units in each country
– Charge country managers usage fee based on either computational
usage, dollar usage, or user (per merchant/cardholder) & continue to
charge until investment recouped
– Allow country managers to set join fee
Recommendations (cont’d)
• Features of credit card program should match the brand positioning
and corporate image. Include gold features for premium clients and
regular/base features for others.
• In saturated markets grow through acquisition, and use green field
approach in emerging countries.
• Capitalize on cross-selling and foreign currency exchange arbitrage
opportunities.
• Structure flexible country manager compensation to encourage
elements of shared risk and long term focus on available marketing
options.
• Compensate country managers in local currency.
