Abstract: | It is posited in this study that multinational firms may increase their systematic risk owing to an increase in the standard devitation of cash flows from internationalization , which offsets the lower correlation associated with diversification. A significant positive relationship between the level of systematic risk in a firm and the degree of that firm's internationalization is presented. The analysis is consistent with observed practitioner usage of higher discount rates in evaluating international projects. |
