| Abstract: | The impact of alliance network diversity on multinational enterprise (MNE) economic performance is examined here. Competing hypotheses derived are considered, alternatively, from transaction cost theory and network theory. A latent variable structural equation modeling approach is used on a sample of 580 MNEs, and it is found that MNEs with more diverse alliance networks experience lower economic performance on average than those with less diverse alliance networks. |
