What Are the Benefits of Globalization

Access to New Cultures


• Globalization makes it easier than ever to access foreign culture,
including food, movies, music, and art. This free flow of people,
goods, art, and information is the reason you can have Thai food
delivered to your apartment as you listen to your favorite UK-
based artist or stream a Bollywood movie.

The Spread of Technology and Innovation


• Many countries around the world remain constantly connected,
so knowledge and technological advances travel quickly.
Because knowledge also transfers so fast, this means that
scientific advances made in Asia can be at work in the United
States in a matter of days.

Lower Costs for Products


• Globalization allows companies to find lower-cost ways to produce their
products. It also increases global competition, which drives prices down and
creates a larger variety of choices for consumers. Lowered costs help people
in both developing and already-developed countries live better on less
money.

Higher Standards of Living Across the Globe


• Developing nations experience an improved standard of living—thanks to
globalization. According to the World Bank, extreme poverty decreased by
35% since 1990. Further, the target of the first Millennium Development
Goal was to cut the 1990 poverty rate in half by 2015. This was achieved five
years ahead of schedule, in 2010. Across the globe, nearly 1.1 billion people
have moved out of extreme poverty since that time.

Access to New Markets


• Businesses gain a great deal from globalization, including new customers
and diverse revenue streams. Companies interested in these benefits look for
flexible and innovative ways to grow their business overseas. International
Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) make it easier than ever to
employ workers in other countries quickly and compliantly. This means
that, for many companies, there is no longer the need to establish a foreign
entity to expand overseas.

Access to New Talent


• In addition to new markets, globalization allows companies to find new,
specialized talent that is not available in their current market. For example,
globalization gives companies the opportunity to explore tech talent in
booming markets such as Berlin or Stockholm, rather than Silicon Valley.
Again, International PEO allows companies to compliantly employ workers
overseas, without having to establish a legal entity, making global hiring
easier than ever.
