摘要

通过建立子公司的实体存在是印度跨国公司在软件服务部门国际化的显著特征之一。然而，与成功案例相比，这些子公司的关闭受到的关注有限。本文使用印度软件服务跨国公司和2007-2017年期间关闭的相关子公司的代表性样本，研究了较少探索的国际子公司关闭事件。使用东道国、母公司和子公司特定因素估计Cox比例风险函数。结果表明，三个层次的因素对子公司关闭有显著影响。虽然东道国的经济增长降低了关闭的可能性，但较小的子公司和利润较低的子公司关闭的可能性较高。企业集团隶属关系对降低子公司关闭概率有直接和独立的影响。然而，在印度软件跨国公司的案例中，由于国际化的地理广度较高而导致的区域间涉外责任并没有得到支持。

International Subsidiary Closure in the Software Services Sector: The Experience of Indian Software Services Multinationals

ABSTRACT Physical presence through establishment of subsidiary is one of the salient features of internationalization of Indian multinationals in the software services sector. However, closure of such subsidiaries has received limited limelight than the success stories. The paper examines the less explored event of international subsidiary closure using a representative sample of Indian software services multinationals and the associated subsidiaries closed during 2007–2017. Cox proportional hazard function is estimated using host-country, parent-firm and subsidiary-specific factors. Results show that the three levels of factors have significant impact on subsidiary closure. While economic growth in host country reduced probability of closure, the smaller subsidiaries and less profitable ones had higher probability of closure. Business group affiliation was found to have direct and independent impact on reducing probability of subsidiary closure. However, the liability of inter-regional foreignness due to higher geographical breadth of internationalization was not supported in the case of Indian software multinationals.
