Abstract: | This paper examines empirically two distinctions of internal and external markets: influence activities and strategic coordination. Influence activities that arise from decentralization, imperfect monitoring, and a relative performance system are a potential liability of internal markets; coordination may be worse in internal markets than in external markets. However, strategic coordination is an advantage of internal markets: a hierarchy can more effectively implement strategic policies in internal markets than external markets. |
