Abstract:What are the source of "J form competitive advantage"? This study uses ownership and financial networking variables to identify "J form" and "market-model" Japanese and U.S. firms. Results using discriminate analysis indicate that ownership structure, inter-firm investment, and financing flexibility significantly differentiate J form firms from "market-model" firms. The study finds that a higher proportion of keiretsu firms than non-keiretsu firms had adopted market-model ownership and financial networking characteristics.
