Determinants of investment in Japan- the role of keiretsu
2006年6月27日 / 6.30 P.M.
Jörg Mahlich, Austrian Federal Economic Chamber- Economic Policy Department
We analyze the determinants of capital expenditures and R&D outlays in a large sample of 1.200 listed Japanese companies over the 1985-2004 period. We provide empirical evidence for the role of cash flow as a determinant of both types of investment. In contrast to earlier studies such as Hoshi et al. (1991), our findings suggest that the investment behavior of keiretsu members is not different from unaffiliated companies.
The presentation is co-authored with Burcin Yurtoglu
