New trade and exchange strategies, economic integration, political reforms, and privatization are driving Latin American firms to expand operations both within and outside the area. Additionally, multinational firms have stepped up operations, entered sectors previously dominated by state-owned enterprises, and restructured their management. Vast projects are upgrading transport, seaports, and airports. Communications and emerging patterns in consumer life styles are redefining markets. Sweeping change, plus the challenge of becoming internationally competitive, has burgeoned management training needs for both the business and public sectors. Yet in some countries the prospects for continued reform could be reversed by hardening social tensions and voter skepticism that free market policies will effectively reduce poverty and persistent unemployment. 相似文献

This study examines how the interplay between home and host country regulatory institutions affects the investment strategy of private equity (PE) firms in an emerging market context. To answer this question, we consider three different mechanisms: (1) the institutional hazard avoidance effect, (2) the institutional escapism effect, and (3) the dysfunctional institutions effect. Contrary to conventional wisdom, we argue that regulatory institutional differences between home and host countries can sometimes have a positive rather than a negative effect on investment likelihood. Our findings show that when a host emerging market has a strong regulatory institutional system relative to other emerging markets, it is more likely that this country will attract PE investments from firms based in home countries with very strong and very weak institutional systems. The empirical analyses, based on a polynomial specification and a dataset covering more than 300 PE firms that made close to 1500 investment transactions in Latin America during 1996–2011, are consistent with our main theoretical arguments. 相似文献

Abstract The emerging role of Latin America in the global marketplace suggests that understanding and managing cross-cultural negotiations will become increasingly important between Latin America and the rest of the world, including and especially the United States and Canada. While North America and Latin America were colonized at about the same time, different historical development, economic conditions, and cultures influence their approaches to negotiation. This paper examines what we know about negotiating in Latin America, based on anecdotal and empirical evidence, and what aspects of negotiation behavior require further study and elucidation. Resumen La nueva y creciente posición de América Latina en los mercados globales hará que el entendimiento y la administración de los procesos de negotiatíon inter-culturales entre América Latina y el resto del mundo, con especial énfasis en Estados Unidos y Canadá, adquiera mucha mayor importancia. Norte y Latino América fueron colonizadas en épocas aproximadamente similares, sin embargo, los procesos requeridos para negociar con cada uno de ellos han sido influenciados por diferentes desarrollos históricos, condiciones económicas y aspectos culturales. Este artículo examina a través de evidencia anecdótica y empírica los aspectos de negociaión en América Latina ya conocidos y aquellos que requieren investigación adicional. Resumo O papel emergente da América Latina no mercado global sugere que o entendimento e a gerêntia de negociações inter-culturais se tornará cada vez mais importante entre a América Latina e o resto do mundo, destacando-se os Estados Unidos e o Canadá. Apesar de a América do Norte e a América Latino terem sido colonizados em torno da mesma época, diferentes desenvolvimentos históricos, condições econômicas e culturas influenciaram a sua forma de negociar. Esse artigo examina o que nós sabemos a respeito de negocição na América Latina, baseado em evidências casuals ou empíricas, e que aspectos do comportamento de negociação requerem estudos mais aprofundados ou maior elucidação. 相似文献

M&A activity has greatly increased in Latin America in the recent past. As a result, the improvement of valuation techniques has gained a prominent place in the agenda of investors and financial analysts dealing with the region. The task entails two substantial challenges, however. First, fundamental valuation requires the determination of an appropriate cost of capital, and the traditional CAPM-based models which are normally used to compute it are difficult to apply in such transitional, less efficient markets. Second, most companies and transactions in Latin America are closely-held operations, and hence bear components of unsystematic risk which classical appraisal techniques do not easily capture. In this paper, we develop a comprehensive fundamentals-based valuation model and provide supporting empirical data for valuing privately-held companies in Latin American emerging markets. 相似文献

Business ethics is a relatively new topic of academic discussion in Latin America. Corruption and impunity came to be serious moral diseases in the region, probably as a result of a long period of dictatorship in most countries. Low ethical standards in the politics have had deep impact on individuals, organizations and economic systems. Excessive consumption, materialism and selfishness, in contrast with real poverty, have been responsible for a sloppiness in attitudes and principles in many Latin American countries. Even though the majority of the population belongs to the Roman Catholic Church, the lack of education has led people to a dichotomy: faith and business practices are often very distant from each other. Several isolated efforts have been done in order to enhance business ethics through education, publications and professional activities. The relationship business-academia has proved to be an excellent initiative for this objective, mainly in Mexico, Brazil and Peru. 相似文献

Venture capital in Asia has exhibited remarkable growth over the last two decades. Researchers and practitioners have, however, expressed doubts as to whether what is being reported as venture capital in Asia can really be classified as such. Authors of scholarly studies often avoid this debate and, consequently, fail to caution readers about the applicability of their research findings. Through an exploration of the history, development, and composition of venture capital in Asia, this article not only confirms significant differences between Asian and traditional venture capital, but also finds that venture capital in Asia differs little from what is commonly called private equity. As such, a need exists within the venture capital literature to recognize this peculiarity of the Asian venture capital market. Moreover, venture capitalists considering expansion into Asia must comprehend the nature of the Asian market in order to avoid disillusionment and frustrations which may result from inadequate understanding. 相似文献
