RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FOREIGN SUBSIDIARIES - JU...

International business scholars have conducted a considerable amount of research on both
headquarters-subsidiary relationships and subsidiary roles. The horizontal relationships
between foreign subsidiaries  however  have not gained much attention - although these linkages
are important to the Multinational Corporation (MNC). Business practice shows that subsidiaries
can cooperate and or compete with one another  and that their relationships differ even across
companies operating in the same industry. Julia Maurer offers the first comprehensive
conceptual and empirical approach to the topic. She develops a novel framework for the analysis
of intersubsidiary relationships and applies it to the large-scale plant engineering industry.
The empirical study confirms that an MNC`s strategic orientation has a considerable impact on
its intersubsidiary relationships.
