The Effect of State Ownership on a Cross-Border Acquisition Wave

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

More enterprises from developing countries are conducting cross-border acquisitions (CBA) in the global market. Inter-industry acquisitions take the form of waves, and the position in an acquisition wave has been confirmed to be related to acquisition performance in developed countries. This paper examines the relationship between state ownership and position in a CBA wave using a sample of Chinese firms’ CBA events from 2008 to 2019. This article also attempts to examine the moderating effect of the number of board members with overseas work experiences and educational backgrounds.
