Tiivistelmä: | This paper tests simultaneously a number of competing hypotheses. The results suggest that acquisitions are used by Japanese investors with weak competitive advantages while investors with strong advantages find that greenfield investments are a more efficient way to transfer these advantages to the US. Acquisitions are also chosen to enter industries with either very low or very high growth rates, when entry is at a scale that is large relative to the parent, and when entry is into a different industry. |
