Abstract

In this study we examine how unfair transaction experiences with domestic partners might affect international expansion efforts, as moderated by industry competition and importing network. With survey data from the Annual Survey of Korea Venture Firms (2014–2018), we identify an explanatory role of unfair transaction experiences, together with moderating roles of industry competition and importing network, on FDI, such that small and medium-sized firms that suffer unfair transaction experiences in their home country are more likely to internationalize. Importing network can catalyze this outward investment, whereas industry competition tends to discourage such international expansion, because the firms need to focus on defending their positions at home, more so than expanding their business internationally.

解读技术密集型中小企业外国直接投资中的不公平交易经历、竞争和进口问题
在本研究中,我们研究了与国内合作伙伴的不公平交易经历如何影响国际扩张努力,以及行业竞争和进口网络的调节作用。通过韩国风险企业年度调查(2014-2018 年)的调查数据,我们发现了不公平交易经历对外国直接投资的解释作用,以及行业竞争和进口网络的调节作用。进口网络可以促进这种对外投资,而行业竞争往往会阻碍这种国际扩张,因为企业需要专注于捍卫其在国内的地位,而不是在国际上拓展业务。
