| Abstract: | Between 1995 and 1998, U.S. electric utility companies invested heavily in utilities overseas, especially in the United Kingdom. Subsequently, however, a number of these takeovers came wholly or partially undone. A closer look shows that some of the underlying assumptions prompting them were in error. Nevertheless, the gradual liberalization of global markets undoubtedly creates opportunities that may succeed in the future. |
