“…Hammer, et al (2017) consider whether culture affects the performance of cross-border private equity buyouts, finding that higher levels of performance orientation negatively impact efficiency improvements in a set of over 5,000 exit channels from deals in 67 countries. Holloway, et al (2016) study how heterogeneity of private equity firms affects their cross-border acquisitions. Broadly, ownership change and how it relates to institutions are studied by Knyazeva, et al (2013).…”

Economists examine foreign direct investment, which mostly constitutes flows to established firms (sometimes characterized as “multinational corporations”) that might or might not engage in truly innovative activity in the FDI target country. Conversely, finance scholars have studied the pipeline of entrepreneurial finance from limited partnerships (LPs) to venture capitalists (VCs) or private equity general partners (GPs) to portfolio firms. Few studies examine relationships between general and limited partners, and those that do often examine only the United States, or a limited number of countries in a given region. This paper uses a novel dataset (LP Source) to examine secular trends in cross-national flows from the LP to the GP (in the form of various investment funds) to the portfolio firm. We find evidence for “home bias” and demonstrate that cross-border flows are affected by GDP per capita, export orientation, and country-level measures of the entrepreneurial environment.

“…On the other hand, contractual governance in the form of detailed contracts that cover contingencies is seen to safeguard against opportunism concerns in strategic alliances (Mayer and Argyres, 2004). Acquisition transactions, on the other hand, may take place on both the buy and sell sides in strategic acquisitions, nevertheless particularly overcoming cross-border barriers may come with significant transaction costs (Holloway et al 2016).…”

Product development sourcing is vital due to the significant impact on company and product success. Different technology life-cycle (TLC) stages also necessitate product development sourcing to focus accordingly. Understanding the dynamics of product development sourcing over TLC's can prove beneficial. This study analyses product development sourcing strategies through three strategy formulating theories of transaction cost theory, knowledge-based theory, and resource-based theory over TLC stages. Three sourcing strategies of outsourcing, strategic acquisitions, and strategic alliances are considered. The topic is approached both by analysing literature and applying inductive logic for analysing product development sourcing over three technology generations in the context of an important player in the high-tech infrastructure business. A framework is introduced where product development activities emphasis and sourcing strategies' focus is presented over TLC, indicating the priorities in different situations. Contribution is provided by analysing motivations behind product development sourcing decisions over three technology generations' life-cycles.

Does culture affect the performance of private equity buyouts?

GLOBE is the acronym for "Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness," a 62nation, 11-year study involving 170 researchers worldwide. The GLOBE Project was introduced in my first article (click here). In this third article, I will overview GLOBE's findings about how business values and practices vary across nations and cultures. Cultural Dimensions, the Measuring Rods of Cross-Cultural Research As I explained in my first article, the first major question addressed by the GLOBE researchers was which measurement standards to use so that they could be precise about the similarities and differences among numerous societal and organizational cultures. After a thoroughgoing literature review as well as two pilot studies, the team identified nine "cultural dimensions" that would serve as their units of measurement, or (in research language) "independent variables." Cultural dimensions have been around as long as the field of intercultural research (i.e., since the early 1960s). They provide concepts and terminology that enable all of us to become aware of, to measure, and to talk knowledgeably about the values and practices found in a human culture-and about the similarities and differences among human cultures. What exactly is a cultural dimension? It's a concept that is depicted graphically as a continuum. In most cases, only the two ends of the continuum are named. Here, graphically, is one of the cultural dimensions actually used by the GLOBE research team.
