In this paper, there is a detailed discussion on the Telstra Corporation Limited economic
issues and the strategies that can be used to solve the issues. Recent
developments in economics include that capital has become more important than
trading of goods in our economy. Similarly, productivity no longer depends upon
the number of employees. We also need to understand the effect of economics on
politics. A company-planned economic model has been abandoned in favor of a
capitalistic model. Instead of protectionism in trade, we now cooperate with
each other to further our economic interests. Rules of competition have also
been changed. When formulating a good business practice, we need to understand
that it is the era of economic development and there is need to act accordingly
to survive in the market. The current
status quo also allows the business to expand however they like, and to ensure
optimization, as long as they do not hurt the national economy. It
cannot be denied that in the developing market to overcome the above problems
completely of construction of financial policy a proper comprehensive work is
required. In the same way the use of financial strategy model is just for the
sake there is an individual methodology for each of the organization and the
aptitude and skills for the optimal capital structure model. The liberal society allows more choice
resulting in increase of businessmen and businesswomen to trade on an
international level. The communications infrastructure is enhanced because of
the technical development that has improvised the communication system, the
coverage of the media world and, specifically, the internet that has become a
global network of transmitting and receiving important information. So, it
in this report, a complete analysis of
the Telstra economy is detail.

Critical
Analysis of Telstra
Corporation Limited Economic Analysis
The Telstra Corporation Limited has to
undergo some of the economical challenges. Capital marketing
polarization is the most important issue for the Telstra. Thus, managers perform their duties to eradicate and
stamp out the barriers which lead to the polarization. They devised new and
effective strategies and policies in which solutions are given to address the
issue in the path of betterment. However to increase the competitive condition
of the organization in the developing markets specific universal strategies can
be used this strategic phase will influence the capitalization of the
organization in a positive way. In the perspective of such models there are two
solutions available that are: partially compensate the issues or else
simultaneously or moderately mitigate the issues in the financial strategy at
the stage of expansion
It cannot be denied that in the developing
market to overcome the above problems completely of construction of financial
policy a proper comprehensive work is required. It can be seen that the
economical ratio of opportunities for the organization to investments and also
describes obtainable the financing debts in the natural progression of the
organization. By the high school matrix of financial management it imitates the
rate of the ratio of maintainable development of the organization and reflects
the process of creation of value in the long-term.
There are two options in matrix which
fluctuate from one to the next not only in nature but also in purposes and
usages. One option is to conduct research on econometric, and the second is the
normative description standards under the aegis of its paradigms. In further
explanation, there are two options which are usually suggested or referred in
order to make up matrix. First is to conduct econometric research and label of
the paradigms which possess the normative values of matrix. Another mechanism
that is usually adopted is to compare the distribution with the distribution of
the companies which are in fact considered as competitors in the same field in
market. It is possible to develop the structure of an optimal capital but only
for the specific organizations. The suggestions for several universal capital
structures are not based on reality. In the same way the use of financial
strategy model is just for the sake there is an individual methodology for each
of the organization and the aptitude and skills for the optimal capital
structure model
The
relationship between divergent parameters under the sway of matrix can be
considered as indicators of standards. The adoption of matrix parameters with
reference to divergent values in order to assess qualitative evaluation of that
leads to a comprehensive and reliable findings. Competitive positions with
relation to financial management are also given pivotal and utmost attention in
the whole process of evaluation

There is
a misconception that has clinched for the global marketing on different levels
financial strategy does not matter in order to make a company stable or a plan
successful. The misconception can be evaluated on the basis of the most
authentic work of two economic scientists who are Nobel Prize economist
Modigliani and Miller. These are the two internationally reputed economists who
developed their narrative differently in their research work against the
approach and myth of ‘’no matter of financial strategy in any company’s
success’’ that has been hovering for many decades on world marketing sphere.
Economic liberal values are followed under
the umbrella of the concept that harmonized the whole business world. There is
long history in which different fields played their role in order to make the
world globally integrated. Growth and diversified process of production of
products, which are used by different companies, lighten up the concept in way
that is more comprehensive. It can be
said that the factors like economic mechanism, cultural harmony, production
methods, expansion of investment beyond boundaries international trade development,
international political economy, international trade development and many other
factors have an impact on the Telstra
company economical strategy.
Reflection
in the key issues of
Telstra Corporation Limited
I have learn from the analysis of the company
that the world is moving towards globalization and economic growth is crucial
part to develop a nation and for advance progressing. Our economic depends on
our financial assets and companies are moving rapidly towards more effective
business strategies. Financial strategy is very important thing, must be cater
initially for the growing companies, and must take proactive steps like hiring
professional and skilled persons who have strong analytical skills and problem
solving skills. Investors’ in the Telstra
also plays an important role for any developing business because they
invest their money and do business with local and international clients and pay
lot of tax to the government so that they can work easily and government can
provide them security of their assets.
When we talk about economic market, we see
that they can grow the business of Telstra
very fast and they improved in every sector. When any company progress towards
their goals, there must be accountability sector who monitor all developing
tasks and do audits on daily basis so that no one can think about the corruption
and by following this approach the Telstra
within few years can be successful in achieving goals just by making few
changes in the economical framework of company.
Right
now, organizations are come across a sharing economy, where persons are
purchasers as well as, in the interim, venders of things, while the cash
related assets and common assets are more capable. Moreover, it is vital not
entirely to pass in new worldwide markets and grow the client base, yet to
center in making an inducement for whatever number associates as could be
expected under the conditions. I have learned from the analysis that
macroeconomic controls are redesigning the world, to be specific: joining and
the rise of the set of three controls, innovation developments, particularly
the assortment. In this kind of cheap, upheld by the development of new
advances, the trust and disrepute are the principle columns and drivers for
progression. Thus, the actions on economical measurement of the Telstra should focus to organize the
standards of sharing cheap in the plans of action and ought to focus on area
networks.
The financial strategy plays an important
role to achieve such targets for development of the Telstra. They should increase their businesses by getting more
clients local / international, improving IT sector and many more. Corporate
strategy should be part of following:
Strategy
to make financial decisions, which focus to deliver tasks on time
-
Financial strategy should
predict the future crises, which can be occurred in economic growth, and we
need to cater them first in the developing phase.
-
To determine any new tools
and techniques is the responsibility of financial strategy, which closely works
with development team and provides them new ideas.
We have identified some
major problems which faced to develop economical strategy, these are most
important issues in any emerging markets during implementation of financial
strategic. But we discuss some more issues like:
Staff
was not skilled and its management also not suitable for this post and they did
not accept any new change. They create hurdles to implement financial strategy,
don’t have knowledge of strategic objectives, and lacking in their professional
skills.
−
Economical strategies are implemented in phases and due
to this, companies of emerging markets was not confident and those who created
financial strategies, should provide them confidence and give them surety about
their business and money.
−
Conflict arises in everywhere, so people who have
authority to control all the things they damage of its strategic development
and economic growth becomes unstable.
−
They focused on the short-term company goals;
they should consider long-term goals so that they can flourish in their
economic growth.
−
Strategic alliance is another approach that can be used in order to
internationalize the cost of capital. Foreign industrialists and investors
usually make great strides through collective cooperation in regional or global
capital market. They formulate their groups and develop their own strategy on
common concerns and financial interests. There were a number of multi-dimensional
factors which infused the collapse and decline of the strategy. Ineffectiveness
was one of them that played a vital and devastating role in the decline. Equity
issue was another cause that is still considered as the motivational factor in
the fall.
Conclusion
and Recommendations on
Telstra Corporation Limited
It is concluded that for the Telstra to grow its business it is
crucial to work strategically on increasing the level of economic development.
Such strategies should be applied which help boost up the business and link one
business with the other. For the development of meaningful and workable
strategies it is important to go through the strategic analysis in the
market. In many companies the integrated
assessment in the field of financial management is never used, the point is in order
to ensure financial development; competitive financial models and strategies
to-be-act-upon are integral issues. The implementation and harmonization of
regulations of economic progress is not practiced. In order to achieve maximum
results proper strategic management need to be made which assures the
implementation of rules for the better future of companies. The assessment
internal and external helps locate the issues and give ideas to solve those
issues in a strategic manner. Similarly these studies help developing and
testing of unique strategies and financial models. In the hierarchy of
financial globalization, financial strategy and financial management are two
important elements to boost the economy. A study of the relationship between
financial instruments and financial strategy in context with the management to
support analyze the strategic repercussion of structural reforms and thus
improving the financial level up to the mark
·
After implementation of strategy to address financial issues, there is a
need for the Telstra to start
process of investment and get funds so that we can initiate as step towards our
goals which we set for our nation. The researchers think that this kind of emerging
economics and to grow a company is not impacting on any nation.
·
To achieve greater
capitalization, the Telstra must provide a ground to
investors so that they can invest money securely and generate more income for
their business.
