These explanations predict that keiretsu membership should facilitate FDI, yet the empirical evidence fails to support this story. Our work suggests why this might be tru

The strategic incentives we highlight follow naturally from the actual institutional structure of industrial ownership, explain the ambiguities found in the empirical literature, and point to what may be needed to sort out t

The Effects of Industrial Ownership Structure on the Timing of FDI The Direct Effect: For a given period of delay between initial and subsequent entry, t, the probability of initial FDI at any time t is a decreasing function of the level of cooperation (i.e. cross-ownership

In incentive terms the leader has less incentive to undertake FDI as it enjoys both a smaller fraction of the gains and a greater fraction of the losses its action induces.
10、The Indirect Effect: A change in a also has an indirect effect on the probability of initial FDI working through the optimal delay between initial and subsequent entry. This effect is represented by the second term in。 The longer is the optimal delay, the further in the future and hence lower are th

Furthermore, the indifference condition of the mixed strategy equilibrium requires that, given a longer optimal delays makes initial entry mo

Clearly an important question is whether the influence of the direct or of the indirect effect of industrial ownership structure determines inital FDI entry probabilities. Without further assumptio

Potential Policy Implications of the Analysis Clearly the analysis provided in our theoretical model is too stylized and short on detail to provide an adequate guide to policy. However, equally clearly the effects that we uncover have some polic

For any given set of model parameters firms from partially cooperative industrial groupings may be less inclined to undertake initial FDI and will certainly delay lon

Furthermore, the Dampening Effect suggests that these firms are also likely to be less responsive at the margin to any incentives for FDI that a potential host country might offer. The underlying intuition seems quite powerful: in this context overlapping o

Furthermore, while firms from industrial structures with overlapping ownership networks might be less responsive to incentives to undertake FDI, they are by the same logic: less likely to exit once they have entered. 译文 FDI 战略和工业所有制结构 资料来源 : Department of Economics, Monash University,

Ellis 1,一个直接的影响是工作通过进口支付的份额提供激励效果: 2,另一个间接影响就是 通过开始和后来的进口时间变化反馈并影响最初 的决定 。对于增加的合作,一个直接的影响使 FDI 概率的减少 ,间接影响导致它上升。对于充分合作、充分竞争工业所有制结构的企业,直接影响控制着间接影响,它们之间合作和 最初 FDI 概率 的关系 是否定的。对于 部分合作的情况下 ,这种结论不是很 明朗 的 。然而 ,为 了 各层次的合作 ,最初 和后来的 进口 增加 随着合作得增加而 增加。 此外

21、FDI 概率上有这一个间接的影响 。 第二行 所代表的 就是这种结果 。 最佳延迟 的时间越长 ,未来 就越远 ,因此 第二个进入者利用了 第一 个进入者在进口时 折价 的成 本。因此更好 的 是 每个公司 就越有动力 最初进入。此外 , 混合策略均衡 的 不相关条件 要求 ,给予一个更长的最佳 延迟 时间能使 最初的 进口者 更吸引人 ,他们每个人的公司必须要 用 一个更高的 概率 让别的公司不感兴趣。 很明显的 一个重要 问题是 :不管 工业所有制 结构的直接 的 还是 间接的 ,都影响 影响了 FDI 进入的 可能性。没有进一步假设我们不能 说影响是决定性的因素 。 用潜在的政策含义进行
22、分析 在 理论模型 中很清楚提出这种现象对于适当的 指导方针 是 太风格 化 而且缺少详细 信息的 。然而 ,同样明显的影响 表明 我们揭开 的存在 一些政策关联。我们已经表明 在他们 FDI行为 中对企业集团和韩国大企业成员的 激励 是相当保守的 。 任何给定的模型参数公司在部分合作工业集团可能比以往更少的倾向于进行最初的 FDI, 进行后续投资 肯定会延迟时间。此外 ,阻尼效应 表明 ,这些公司 在 FDI 的利润上 可能是反应较少 ,而这个 东道 主可能 会提供。这 潜在的直觉似乎是 强大 的: 此背景下重叠的所有权网络似乎 有 稀释的奖励。但是 ,我们会谨慎的认为潜在的居住国应将目标锁定 在从缺少 合作 的 公司吸引 FDI 的政策 。 我们的模型没有 告诉我们任何 关于激励的情况,在企业集团和非企业集团业 的情况下 , 公司 是潜在的进口 者。 而且 ,公司在 重叠的 所有权网络 产业结构 下可能对进行 FDI 激励反应较少 ,他们 有 相同的逻辑规律 :他们 不太可能要退出一旦他们进入的 行业 。
