First, the importer can pay in his currency and the exporter changes it on the international currency market. Secondly, the importer sells his own currency and purchases the exporter's.

Licensing

When a company is small it cannot sometimes enter a foreign market. It can sign a licensing agreement with a foreign firm. A licensing is a legal agreement in which one firm gives another a right to manufacture and sell its product. A company that obtains this right pays the licenser a royalty. Royalty is a certain percentage of the income from the sale product.

Businesses that have patents or trademarks usually can use licensing to protect them against counterfeiters. The licensee gains a successful product and the know-how. The licenser often controls the quality of the goods which the licensee produces, because high quality guarantees the reputation of the licenser. The licensee chooses the selling strategies because he knows more about how to sell the product in foreign market.
