摘要：Rising inequality is one of the grand societal challenges of our time. Yet, its effects on firms - including multinational enterprises (MNEs) - and their operations have not been widely examined by IB scholars. In this study, we posit that income inequality within a country is positively associated with the incidence and severity of crime experienced by businesses. Further, we propose that this relationship will be negatively moderated by social cohesion (in the form of greater societal trust ...

摘要：Event studies are widely used in finance research to investigate the implications of announcements of corporate initiatives, regulatory changes, or macroeconomic shocks on stock prices. These studies are often used in a single-country setting (usually the U.S.), but little work has yet been conducted in an international context, perhaps due to the complexities inherent in implementing cross-country studies. This paper explores the methodological challenges of conducting event studies in intern...

摘要：This paper seeks to identify the social dynamics underlying '' socially driven '' acquisitions and their effect on post-acquisition performance. Drawing on research into social stratification, we formulate hypotheses on how these socially driven acquisitions perform in relation to both the position held by the acquirers' top managers (CEOs and owners) in the social hierarchy and the extent to which the acquisition context is socially loaded (prestigious). We examine these hypotheses empiricall...

摘要：Multinational corporations often are multilingual entities, yet surprisingly little is known about how foreign-language competencies in their foreign subsidiaries are related to local employees' career success outcomes. This paper uses human capital and upward mobility theories to link local employees' English language competencies through career encouragement and internal social capital development behavior to job promotions, wage increases, and career satisfaction in two independent studies ...

摘要：Although many of the benefits of cross-listing have been examined in prior research, potential improvements in price efficiency have received less attention. We examine the differences in price efficiencies between American depositary receipts (ADRs) of foreign firms and the shares listed in their home markets. Based on multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) of the daily price of 200 ADRs and their domestically listed shares for the period from January 2010 to June 2019, we find ...

摘要：Given the diverse, interdisciplinary, and multilevel nature of international business (IB) research, it is critical to address methodological challenges prior to data collection. Thus, we suggest that an ounce of methodological prevention is worth a pound of cure. We describe the following challenges: (1) researching an important and relevant issue; (2) making meaningful theoretical progress; (3) recognizing, anticipating, and resolving dilemmas in research design and execution decisions; (4) ...

摘要：Social networks have gained increased attention as a lens to understand employee creativity around the world. We propose that a complete understanding of whether and when structural holes and tie strength are conducive to creativity requires considering the cultural tightness of the country in which individual creators are embedded. Building on the diversity-bandwidth trade-off identified in network research, we theorize that, in culturally tight countries, where knowledge diversity is the pri...

摘要：We analyze whether cross-national distance between professional money managers and the positions they take in foreign markets affects investment performance. Out of four dimensions of cross-national distance (geography, culture, business climate, and industry), we find that only cultural distance inversely relates to portfolio performance. Investors earn higher returns in culturally similar foreign markets when market conditions in these countries are favorable. Our results show that the cultu...

摘要：The decision to not register an enterprise at its founding is pervasive globally, even though research has shown that nonregistration at founding may adversely influence the performance of legally registered businesses (hereinafter called firms). In this generalization and extension study, we extend the literature on the registration-performance relationship by (a) documenting the heterogeneity across countries in the effect of registration at founding on firm performance of legally registered...
