KCG Seminar by Julian Hinz on Frictions to intranational investment on Sep. 21, 2021

13th September 2021
KCG Secretary
There has been much research evidence showing that geographical and cultural distances have played a negative role for firms’ internationalization or, more concretely, their engagement in investments abroad. Comparably less attention has been paid to the nexus between geographical and cultural distances and intranational investments. Although such geographical and cultural distances within a country are probably much smaller, this does not necessarily mean that they could not play a likewise critical role in determining firms’ intranational investments decisions and thus affecting the allocation efficiency of capital[...]
