Abstract

In the last three decades, cross-border mergers and acquisitions have been the most preferred vehicle for unprecedented internationalization and integration of the global economy. This paper synthesizes the empirical research examining the impact of formal institutions related to state effectiveness, corporate governance and investor protection, and inter-country institutional differences on cross-border mergers and acquisitions. Our review summarizes a total of 156 studies across strategy, international business, finance, and economics literature published from 1995–2023. It presents a synthesized framework across each phase of cross-border mergers and acquisitions. In parallel, we identify opportunities for future research that should address the limitations in the existing stream of research and push the boundaries through the novel integration of theoretical lenses.

正规机构与跨国并购:系统文献综述和研究议程
过去三十年来,跨国并购一直是全球经济实现前所未有的国际化和一体化的首选工具。本文综述了与国家效力、公司治理和投资者保护相关的正式制度以及国家间制度差异对跨国并购影响的实证研究。我们的综述总结了 1995-2023 年间发表的战略、国际商务、金融和经济学文献中的 156 项研究。它为跨国并购的各个阶段提供了一个综合框架。同时,我们还指出了未来研究的机遇,这些机遇应能解决现有研究的局限性,并通过理论视角的新颖整合来推动研究的发展。
