Abstract: | The extent to which the percentage of outside directors on a corporation's board of directors, the concentration of equity ownership, and the roles of individual and institutional stockholders influence the company's R&D strategy is examined. The results show that high insider representation on a board and a concentration of equity among institutional investors positively affect corporate R&D spending. Significant relationships between diversification and R&D spending was not found, in contrast to previous studies, that have reported a negative relationship between unrelated diversification and R&D spending. |
