Accurate measurement is VERY important in banking because banking is all about exact calculations. If one balance measure is off, the entire bank report will not be acurate. One little mess up and the entire calculation goes wrong.
The correct answer is B) traditional.
Aflak Corporation, an Omani firm, is currently planning goods market in India. Aflak Corporation will most likely discover that traditional beliefs and values are more open to change in India.
When a multinational company is planning on initiating operations in another country, it has to be very sensible of the traditional values of that country. The company is getting into a new market and people could have different belief systems, different culture, traditions, and customs, that need to be carefully assessed by the multinational company if they are about to be successful in the new country.
This is the case of India, which has always have very strict traditional values, although younger generations are relaxing those values in recent years.
