“…(1) and (2) represent production and the inefficiency function, respectively. The model is estimated employing a translog production function with inefficiency effects as proposed in prior studies ( Suyanto et al., 2009 ; Svedin and Stage, 2016 ), written as:

This study examines the effects of market competition and foreign direct investment on the technical efficiency of firms within the Indonesian manufacturing sector using a Stochastic Frontier Analysis. We employ a firm-level panel dataset for the period of 2010–2014, covering 400 subsectors, and employing two measures of industrial concentration as proxies for market competition. The results suggest that firms operating in less competitive sectors in Indonesia experience higher technical efficiency. Additionally, foreign ownership, international activity (export-import), and firm size are positively related to technical efficiency. Such findings suggest that the efficient structure hypothesis (ESH) applies in Indonesia, as more efficient firms gain in market share as a result from dynamic competition. Foreign direct investment (FDI) via horizontal spillovers has contributed to an increase in intra industry firms’ efficiency. Nevertheless, as industrial concentration increases, the positive effects in firm efficiency from FDI and from international trade (imports and export) tend to decrease.

“…Perbedaan tipe pemegang saham dapat memainkan peran yang berbeda-beda di dalam corporate governance (Hope, 2013). Perusahaan yang kepemilikan sahamnya dipegang oleh institusi asing memiliki dampak yang positif terhadap efisiensi investasi (Svedin & Stage, 2016). Hubungan antara kepemilikan asing dengan efisiensi investasi semakin kuat ketika pemerintah bersikap lepas kendali dan lembaga pengawas investasi yang terkait berfungsi lemah (Chen, El Ghoul, Guedhami, & Wang, 2017).…”

The level of corporate investment inefficiency is closely related to the effectiveness of corporate governance practices implemented by the largest shareholders and board of directors. This paper discusses empirical research that investigates the impact of the largest shareholders and board size on investment inefficiency with free cash flow as a moderating variable. This study uses a sample of 152 public companies registered in Indonesia’s capital market for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2014 to 2018. This study uses a multiple regression method with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) approach. This study find that the largest shareholders and board size are significantly negative impact on investment inefficiency, but the free cash flow doesn’t moderate the influence of board size on investment inefficiency.

“…Seen as an encompassing topic that makes use of several mechanisms to transfer technologies over political, economic, and organizational borders, the concern lies in the complex processes that feature technology innovation and commercialization to promote its absorption and imitation in both known and unknown scenarios (ANDERSON, 2005;MASKUS, REICHMAN, 2004). Svedin and Stage (2016) discovered the existence of transaction costs in the TT process.…”

This study’s objective is to understand the industrial and technological context involved in the offset policy and technology transfer developed in Brazilian public healthcare. Initially, the acquisition of linear accelerators for oncology treatments seemed to be a solution for the problem of long waiting lines in the Brazilian Single Health System (SUS - Sistema Único de Saúde), but the reality was different. Through the methodological procedure of a case study at a hospital renowned for its oncology treatments in the south of the country, it was possible to elucidate its ability to manage the public investment in relation to the industrial and technological context. The relevant findings show that, even with the limitations of the commercial agreement, the hospital at hand was able to, through knowledge, mitigate the difficulties of the offset policy and carry out the technology transfer with ease, due to its familiarity with the new technology. Through this analysis, based on the empirical context, it was possible to summarize the main benefits and setbacks that arise from the strategic and operational levels of the commercial agreement, both at its initial and final stages. This study hopes to spark new investigations on the topic in order to comprehend and intervene in different contexts and situations.
