| Tiivistelmä: | Building on transaction costs arguments, the authors examine the association between asset specificity and inter-firm co-ordination in domestic and international buyer -seller relationships. The extant literature is extended by also comparing the impact of environmental uncertainty on inter-firm co-ordination across domestic and international relationships. Empirical findings from a survey of 164 industrial buyers demonstrate that there is a positive association between asset specificity and inter-firm coordination, and further that this association is stronger in international relationships than in domestic business-to- business trade. Furthermore, the results indicate that environmental uncertainty is stronger related to inter-firm coordination in international buyer-seller relationships compared to domestic buyer-seller relationships. |
