Synopsis

Did you know that American icon 7-Eleven is controlled by Japanese retail giant Ito- Yokado, Burger King is owned by British conglomerate Diageo and that The New York Post is run by The News Corporation, an Australian company?

These and hundreds of other public, private and state-owned companies headquartered outside the U.S. have a profound influence on American business and American life. In Hoover's Handbook of World Business, you'll find in-depth profiles of 300 of the most influential firms from Canada, Europe and Japan, as well as companies from the fast-growing economies of such countries as Brazil, China and Taiwan.

Hoover's Handbook of World Business includes lists of the top global companies from FORTUNE and other publications, as well as lists of companies on many of the major foreign stock indexes, such as the British FTSE 100 and Japan's Nikkei 225. Indexes are organized by headquarters location and industry, and by the people, companies and brand names mentioned in the profiles.
