Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically examines the economic effects of both corporate industrial and geographic diversifications. Using a sample of 28,050 firm year observations from 1990 to 1998, we find that industrial and geographic diversifications are associated with firm value decrease. Consistent with Denis et al. (2002), the costs of corporate diversification may outweigh the benefits of diversification. We find that geographically diversified firms have higher Ramp;D expenditures, advertising expenses, operating income, ROE and ROA than industrially diversified firms. In addition, higher Ramp;D expenditures create value for multi-segment global firms, but not for single segment global firms. This result implies that there exists an interaction effect between industrial and geographic diversification. We also examine the effects of agency cost issues, as characterized by the diversification discount, on both industrial and geographic diversification. Consistent with the agency explanation, firms with high equity-based compensation are associated with higher firm value than firms with low equity-based compensation. Also, we find that firms with a higher insider ownership percentage are associated with higher excess value.
Book Synopsis An Empirical Analysis of Large Firms' Diversification Strategies by : Johanna Laufenberg
Download or read book An Empirical Analysis of Large Firms' Diversification Strategies written by Johanna Laufenberg and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper summarizes existing research on the effects of product and geographical diversification on firm performance. Building on this, we examine interaction effects of product and geographical diversification and the influence of diversification on firm performance in times of an economic-wide shock. Data on firm performance, diversification and control variables of the 500 largest firms worldwide from the years 2004 to 2014 is obtained to test our hypothesis with an OLS regression. We use separate time-wise samples to distinguish between the crisis and stable period. Our results confirm the previous findings that the main effects of related product and geographical diversification on firm performance are positive while unrelated product diversification has a negative impact. In addition to the current state of research, we find that only related product diversification, and not unrelated product diversification, interacts with geographical diversification to impact firm performance negatively. Moreover, we find that in times of an economy-wide shock, the impact of related product diversification and the impact of the interaction between related product and geographical diversification is higher. Overall, results indicate that related product and geographical diversification offer the potential to increase market power and put excess physical as well as knowledge-based resources to work. Combined levels of related product and geographical diversification have a negative impact on performance due to increased coordination and communication costs.
Book Synopsis Corporate Diversification and Firm Performance by : Sajid Ali
Download or read book Corporate Diversification and Firm Performance written by Sajid Ali and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between corporate diversification and firm performance in a developing country. Previous studies have found that the mixed results have been established between these two constructs in developed countries such as linear, u-shaped or inverted u-shaped relationship. To this end, a sample of 141 non-financial companies over the period of 2003 to 2013 listed on Pakistani stock market was used to analyze the impact of diversification strategy on the performance of firm. Corporate diversification is divided into two types including product and geographic diversification. The findings of the study demonstrated that an inverted u-shaped relationship existed as performance increased up to a certain level due to the related diversification strategy and then it fell down drastically. It showed that too much diversification creates agency problems and internal inefficiencies. It has implications for agency problems, weak corporate governance structures, and family relationships.

Book Synopsis The Dynamics of Intellectual Capital in Current Era by : Muhammad Shahbaz
Download or read book The Dynamics of Intellectual Capital in Current Era written by Muhammad Shahbaz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an authoritative, inter-disciplinary, and up-to-date survey of relevant concepts, research areas, and applications of intellectual capital. Until now, the literature had lacked a comprehensive analysis of intellectual capital (IC) in regard to sustainability, block chain, and other related technologies and virtual environments. This book shows the importance of intellectual capital for contemporary organizations: how it contributes to theories of the firm, how it affects organizational performance, how is it linked with the organizational ambidexterity, how it connects to the technological developments like block chain and digital technologies, and what would be its association with sustainability. Central to our thesis is the systemic nature of intellectual capital in organizations: how intellectual capital interacts with and complements other organizational resources and developments. This book also shows as to how applying the notion of intellectual capital to organizations requires us to consider how intangible forms of capital differ from more traditional forms, implying the need for a theory of firm that accommodates a concept of dynamic, heterogeneous intellectual capital. Although a lot has been written on IC, this book proves to be the first with scholastic and action-oriented perspective on as to how a firm can manage its IC to create value. This book also demonstrates as to how the subjective aspects of IC can be measured and what can be their strategic implications. A discussion on IC disclosure also appears in the latter part of the book. In doing so, this book reveals as to how the value creation of today’s businesses is driven by the IC. This book also introduces the readers to the new application of IC and its association with the contemporary disruptive technologies. This is a book for IC researchers and academicians who want to understand the diverse aspects of IC, for business managers who want to be at the cutting edge, for those early in their careers who seek a challenging new path, and for the top-level managers of the world who have their eye on the future.

Book Synopsis The Regional Multinationals by : Alan M. Rugman
Download or read book The Regional Multinationals written by Alan M. Rugman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many firms label themselves 'global', very few can back this up with truly global sales and operations. In The Regional Multinationals Alan Rugman examines first-hand data from multinationals and finds that most multinationals are strongly regional, with international operations in their home regions of North America, the US or Asia. Only a tiny proportion of the world's top 500 companies actually sell the same product and deliver the same services around the world. Rugman exposes the facts behind the popular myths of doing business globally, explores a variety of regional models and offers an authoritative agenda for future business strategy. The Regional Multinationals is the essential resource for all academics and students in International Business, Organization and Strategic Management, as well as those with an interest in finding out how multinationals really work in practice and how future strategy must respond.

Book Synopsis Back to the Drawing Board by : Colin B. Carter
Download or read book Back to the Drawing Board written by Colin B. Carter and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2003-10-16 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business scandals from Enron to WorldCom have escalated concerns about corporate governance into a full-blown crisis. Institutional investors and legislators have dominated the debate and enacted important changes in corporate accounting and other areas. But Colin B. Carter and Jay W. Lorsch say that we must now focus on the performance of corporate boards. This timely book argues that boards are being pressed to perform unrealistic duties given their traditional structure, processes, and membership. Carter and Lorsch propose a strategic redesign of boards--making them better attuned to their oversight, decision-making, and advisory roles--to enable directors to meet 21st century challenges successfully. Based on the authors' deep expertise and longtime experience working with boards around the world, and on a probing survey of CEOs, Carter and Lorsch help boards to develop a realistic value proposition customized to the company they serve. The authors explore the core dilemmas and responsibilities boards face and outline a framework for designing the most effective structure, makeup, size, and culture. This book provides a candid account of the current state of boards and points the way in a time of crisis and change.
