Tiivistelmä: | This paper considers the strategic motives for international joint venture formation based on a sample of 41 firms in Ghana with partners from Western Europe, North America and Asia. Factor analysis produces three underlying factors for strategic motives: market development and power, partner synergies and production efficiency. The authors find that the relative importance of strategic motives vary most with the sector of joint venture activity, to a moderate extent with the ownership levels, and to a weak extent with the partnership type and nationality of the foreign partner. |
