摘要

制度空白通常被视为在新兴市场开展业务的挑战。我们试图了解机构空白的存在如何影响外国业务以及在非洲环境中这种环境所需的能力。我们通过对一家在尼日利亚经营的南非跨国公司的定性案例研究来检验这一点,并调查如何利用不同的能力来解决制度空白。研究结果表明,跨国公司区分了已知和可预测的制度空白与进入前未知的制度空白以及与之相关的波动性水平。后者需要越来越多的能力。我们将演示如何部署不同的功能来解决空洞的不同后果。我们解释了制度设置与跨国公司协调内部和外部资源过程之间的联系,以便更好地理解制度如何影响跨国公司的能力。

Dynamic Capabilities and the Management of Institutional Voids: A Case Study of Intra-African Internationalization

Dynamic Capabilities and the Management of Institutional Voids: A Case Study of Intra-African Internationalization

Institutional voids are often presented as challenges of doing business in emerging markets. We seek to understand how the presence of institutional voids impacts foreign operations and the capabilities required in such environments, within an African setting. We examine this through a qualitative case study of a South African MNE operating in Nigeria and investigate how different capabilities were utilized in addressing institutional voids. The findings indicate that the MNE differentiated between institutional voids that were known and predictable, versus those that were unknown before entry and by the level of volatility associated with them. The latter required increasing orders of capabilities. We demonstrate how distinct capabilities were deployed to address different consequences of voids. We explain the link between the institutional setting and the MNE process of orchestrating both internal and external resources allowing for a better understanding of how institutions impact on MNE capabilities.
