Establishment Mode by Chinese MNEs and the Positive Direction of Institutional Distance
Past research suggests that institutional distance has asymmetric impacts on the decisions of multinational enterprises (MNEs) depending on the direction of the distance. A positive distance refers to an institutionally more developed host country, while a negative distance denotes an institutionally weaker target country. Building upon the directionality logic of institutional distance, this article investigates these asymmetric effects in the c…
The establishment mode of Chinese MNEs abroad and the Belt and Road Initiative
Purpose Emerging-market multinational enterprises (MNEs) have pushed institutional factors to the cutting-edge of international business research. As for Chinese MNEs, the importance of institutions has been strengthened since the Chinese government launched the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which seeks to promote a comprehensive platform for cooperation among countries. This study aims to investigate the role played by the BRI as an institutio…
Chinese Outbound Tourism Segmentation
Host country experience, institutional distance and location choice of Chinese MNEs
Purpose The conventional wisdom suggests that the lack of prior host country-specific experience and a higher institutional distance deter multinational enterprises (MNEs) from entering a foreign country. However, past studies report that Chinese MNEs show an unconventional risk-taking behavior choosing foreign locations, where they have no prior experience or there is an increased institutional distance. Drawing on the institutional theory, the …
Cultural distance, political risk and location decisions of emerging-market multinationals
The international expansion of emerging-market multinational enterprises (MNEs) is becoming a research topic of increasing interest among international business scholars. One of the specific research questions arising is whether conventional theoretical arguments originated in studies on developed-country MNEs are still valid for explaining the international behavior of emerging-market MNEs. Drawing on the institutional theory, this paper argues …
Destination Attributes and Chinese Outbound Tourism to Europe 目的地特性和中国对欧洲的对外旅游
China is one of the fastest growing outbound tourism markets. Europe is an attractive destination for Chinese tourists. However, Europe still accounts for a small percentage of Chinese outbound tourism. If European countries want to benefit from this market, they should pay attention to Chinese tourists’ preferences. This article contributes to the understanding of Chinese outbound tourism by analyzing those destination attributes that can influe…
The internationalisation of Indian multinationals
In recent years, there is an increasing number of papers focusing on the internationalisation process of Indian multinationals. However, there is still a gap in understanding the determinants of their outward foreign direct investment (FDI) decisions. Thus, this paper analyses the factors influencing the choice between FDI modes by Indian firms. Our findings show that industry technological intensity, host country risk, host market attractiveness…
Tourism in China
The Chinese tourism sector is experiencing one of the highest levels of growth, to the extent that China is set to become the leading world power in tourism within the coming decade. Therefore, studying this important sector deserves particular attention. The aim of this study is to analyze the state-of-the-art of China tourism research by reviewing 95 academic papers published between 1997 and 2008 in the world's three leading tourism journals: …
The impact of country risk and cultural distance on entry mode choice
Purpose – Different theoretical approaches can be used to justify a positive or negative influence of country risk and cultural distance on the resources commitment level assumed in each decision to entering a new country. Before the disparity of results obtained in prior research, this study seeks to provide new empirical evidence about the influence that those two dimensions linked with the target country may exert on entry mode choice. Design/…
