Buckley, PJ, Yu, P, Liu, Q et al. (2 more authors) (2016) The Institutional Influence on the Location Strategies of Multinational Enterprises from Emerging Economies: Evidence from China’s Cross-border Mergers and Acquisitions. Management and Organization Review, 12 (3). pp. 425-445. ISSN 1740-8776
Abstract
This study investigates the institutional influence on the location strategies of Chinese cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) during the period 1985–2011 across 150 economies using Heckman’s two-stage model. The results suggest that Chinese MNEs are ‘shortsighted’ and show perverse behaviour towards host country risk when deciding on the location of host country and volume of investment undertaken through M&As, which may damage the firm’s long term profitability.
