International transactions require certain legal criteria for proper processing. When one country wants to venture into another country to globally market a product, they must consider the legal ramifications and other possibilities that could happen once they are established in that country. In the case of CadMex Pharma wanting to partner with Gentura in the country of Candore, the company faced the issue of having to abide by the laws of that country. The issues CadMex Pharma had to deal with were the idea that Gentura is bound by and coincides with the laws of Candore. Gentura is more obligated to its country of residence. Very few laws of the United States will have any matter in this country. CadMex Pharma also had to accept that there may be a loss that would be beyond their control to a degree. In order to have some profit or gain at all, the company would most likely have to agree to a percentage of loss.

The development of a drug is an ongoing journey, and it can take up to 12 years to develop a drug (Pharmaceutical Patents 2006). The pharmaceutical company uses…
In this particular simulation, 3 main factors can work against CadMex’s decision: Time, costs and ethical/cultural issues. CadMex would be looking at a substantial investment in both time and costs in ensuring quality standards of drugs produced by sub-licensees. On the other hand, as CadMex establishes work processes in a different country, it must find a way to align its own ethical guidelines with the host country’s existing ones.…

Some of the factors that could work against CadMex's decision to grant sublicensing agreements are the time and cost involved, and ensuring quality standards of drugs produced by sublicensing.
