And of the money raised from NSN's parents and the banks, is any of that being used for R&D; or is that for restructuring? Ranshid: With the funding, so we had €1 billion in equity from our parents and €1.4 billion in funding [from the banks]. Some of that is going to cover restructuring. It's expensive to restructure in some of these countries. So that's more for restructuring and not R&D.; We are well funded in R&D; and have been investing well, but we will invest more to get ahead of the curve and not just play catch up. Rajeev Suri: We are at about 14 percent of revenues invested into R&D; and the industry average is about 15 percent, but we have been more efficient because we have a mixture of high-cost and low-cost R&D; set-ups and have been driving more toward low-cost in the past three to four years. So I think it's fair to say that on R&D; we are more efficient than our European peers because 60 percent of our R&D; is in low-cost countries … China, India, Poland, and even the Philippines, which is ultra-low cost -- it's about half the cost of India.

Auch das hier ist Interessant: Ranshid: So that makes it a bit difficult to look at R&D; [in terms of investment] … We have started to look at R&D; in terms of man hours and capacity instead of a percentage of revenues for two reasons: About 50 percent of our business is services, which requires no R&D; and second, because of the shift from high-cost to low-cost, so we [might be spending less] but have more capacity than our peers. Just in the radio access part of the business [NSN] have about 3,000 more people in R&D; than Nokia and Siemens had before the merger and the operating cost of R&D; is 25 percent lower than before the merger.

Mehr Leute weniger Qualität, er hat es immer nich nicht verstanden.

Wenn ich Marc neulich richtig verstanden habe, dann wissen sie inzwischen dass 1 HighCost = 3 LowCost in Effektivität bedeutet.

@23:05 - ich würde in Ranshits Imbissbude sicherlich keine Wurst kaufen - mir reicht schon der Fraß im Eurest. So mancher Operator dürfte ähnliche denken.
