“…Paradoxically, though, levels of internationalisation related positively to the percentage share of family ownership. A systematic search of literature since Zahra's (2003) study reveals a dearth of more systematic evidence on family businesses' distinctive international strategies: even Sousa et al (2008)'s comprehensive export literature review makes no mention of family businesses.…”

“…Global involvement may also be moderated by strategic factors, family issues and top management attitudes (Gallo/Garcia Pont 1996). The main control variables used by scholars investigating export performance between 1998 and 2005 were: foreign market characteristics, export marketing strategies, firm characteristics, management characteristics (Sousa et al 2008).…”

0Many variables have been studied, rather inconclusively, to determine behavioural differences of family firms and any impact on performance. This article focuses on just one under-researched variable: their international strategic choices or rather 'configurations'. We compare 65 of the world's top family firms with those of a matched sample of non-family firms. 0 Results suggest that family firms' 'international 'configurations' were just as worldwide and profitable as those pursued by non-family firms. In the case of such large companies, researchers must consider this international dimension alongside other more acknowledged variables, if they are to advance understanding in this important emerging new field.

“…Market orientation, according to Sousa et al (2008), is increasingly found to be a key internal determinant. Rose and Shoham (2002) found that market orientation was positively related to three measures of export performance including change in export sales, export profits, and change in export profits.…”

“…Despite the hundreds of studies seeking a grand theory of export performance, the literature diversity and fragmentation have hindered theory development. Nonetheless, in a recent review of the literature, Sousa et al (2008) conclude that internal factors (e.g., export marketing strategy, firm characteristics, and management characteristics), in particular export market orientation, as well as external factors (e.g., foreign market characteristics and domestic market characteristics) are important determinants of export success.…”

Terrorism and global business performance

et al. 2020

This paper contributes to the literature on business performance by investigating the relationship between terrorism and global business performance at country level. A measure of a country's distance from the frontier score of the World Bank's Doing Business index is used to proxy for business performance. The results of the fixed-effects estimations based on 173 countries over 7 years (2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016)(2017) show that terrorism has no significant relationship with global business performance. We then partition our sample into developed, developing and fragile countries. The results still show that there is no robust significant relationship between terrorism and business performance for the sub-samples of developed and developing countries. However, the results based on the fragile countries' sub-sample suggest a significant negative relationship between terrorism and business performance. The results are consistent with an alternative measure of business performance and estimation technique that controls for endogeneity.
