Safe-shoring, involving strategic realignment to mitigate risks while maintaining competitiveness, is crucial in volatile international markets. Drawing upon the Resource Orchestration Theory (ROT), the research employs a multiple-case research design involving four B2B organizations from an Asian developing country. Findings reveal that market demand, regulatory environments, and strategic objectives significantly influence firms' decisions to adopt safe-shoring practices. Moreover, the study identifies and analyzes trade-offs encountered in resource orchestration, such as those between cost-effectiveness and quality, specialization and control, and short-term gains versus long-term sustainability. The study enriches ROT by identifying and analyzing specific resource-orchestrated capabilities developed by these firms and uncovers trade-offs encountered in their deployment. The empirical evidence contributes to theoretical advancements in understanding resource allocation, strategic decision-making, and risk management in international business, providing valuable insights for practitioners and scholars alike.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Management","volume":"31 5","pages":"Article 101263"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing from 313 responses from organizations in Qatar, this study illuminates these dynamics by investigating the associations between Qatarization as an indicator of HRM development, namely Qatarization effectiveness, and Qatarization as a statistical indicator, labeled as Qatari Employment Metric that measures higher proportion of Qatari staff, with organizational performance (both financial and non-financial). Our findings provide empirical support for the human capital theory and resource-based view theory through disclosing that Qatarization effectiveness has a positive impact on both financial and non-financial performance. However, a higher proportion of Qatari staff by itself does not necessarily signal better performance and may, in fact, negatively influence non-financial outcomes. We further examine the complex institutional context and discover that stakeholder uncertainty attenuates the positive effect of Qatarization effectiveness on non-financial performance, while the presence of Qatarization expertise can counterbalance the adverse impact of high percentage of Qatari staff on non-financial performance. The results enhance our understanding of the complexities of nationalization public policies and their bearing on organizational performance in the Middle East, thereby emphasizing the necessity of strategic human resource management practices for effective human capital policy implementation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Management","volume":"31 5","pages":"Article 101272"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing data from the six largest Latin American economies, our analyses with different proxies of multinationality reveal that investors do not attribute a significant valuation premium, nor do they impose a price discount, on the cash held by Latin American multinational corporations (Multilatinas) when compared to the cash of their domestic counterparts. These findings suggest that shareholders do not view Multilatinas' cash holdings as conferring greater advantages relative to those of domestic firms. We interpret this as evidence that the perceived benefits of multinationality, such as increased growth potential, may be counterbalanced by elevated agency costs and greater information asymmetry. Our study advances the literature on cash holdings and international business and discusses implications for stakeholders of multinational corporations that have subsidiaries in countries with potential growth opportunities but in which poor investor protection may lead to agency conflicts and the risk of improper cash diversion. Our research yields important implications for policymakers by highlighting the relevance of requiring the disclosure of disaggregated information about domestic and foreign cash to improve efficiency in stakeholder decision-making.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Management","volume":"31 3","pages":"Article 101240"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144239838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The choice of governance structure in ISAs—specifically, whether to form an international joint venture (IJV) or an international non-equity alliance (INEA)—is a pivotal decision for firms. However, despite the importance of this choice, the influence of firms' ownership heterogeneity on the choice remains underexplored. In order to address this gap, this study compares family-owned and non-family-owned firms to examine their differing preferences between IJVs and INEAs. Drawing on an integrated risk perspective and the mixed-gamble socioemotional wealth perspective, we argue that family firms exhibit a greater propensity to choose IJVs over INEAs than non-family firms. Moreover, we posit that this preference is amplified by two factors: (1) the industry-relatedness of the alliance partners and (2) the focal firm's prior experience in the partner's home country. Empirical analysis of 1216 cross-border dyadic alliances formed by publicly listed Indian firms between 2000 and 2022 provides robust support for our hypotheses. This study contributes to the literature on international strategic alliances and family firms' internationalization by shedding light on the nuanced governance preferences of family firms in cross-border collaborations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Management","volume":"31 3","pages":"Article 101250"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144239839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast, perceived overqualification has no effect on SIEs' expatriation satisfaction, regardless of the host organization's legitimacy or status.
