摘要

摘要本文研究了拉丁美洲企业内部研发和专利申请对企业绩效的影响。专利应该对性能产生积极的直接影响。反过来，内部研发应该具有积极的直接和间接影响（由专利介导），因为无论是否获得专利，研发都会产生创新。来自六个拉丁美洲国家的751家公司的样本显示，当业绩以营业额增长来衡量时，内部研发具有积极影响，专利具有消极影响。内部研发也会影响专利，表现出对业绩的负面间接影响。接下来的讨论试图解释这些意想不到的结果。

The Effect of R&D Investments and Patents on the Financial Performance of Latin American Firms

Abstract This paper investigates the influence of internal R&D and patent applications by Latin American firms on firm performance. Patents should have a positive direct influence on performance. Internal R&D, in turn, should have a positive direct and indirect influence (mediated by patents) as R&D generates innovations regardless of whether they are patented or not. A sample of 751 firms from six Latin American countries showed that when performance is measured by turnover growth, internal R&D has a positive influence and patents have a negative influence. Internal R&D also affects patents, showing a negative indirect influence on performance. The discussions that follow seek to explain these unexpected results.
