Firm Boundaries : Impact on Risk - Return Profile WISE 2006
نویسنده
چکیده
In this empirical study, we investigate the effects of IT investments on firm risk-return profile, emphasizing the complementarities between IT investments and firm boundary strategies; i.e., diversification and vertical integration. Our results are consistent with a strong moderating role of IT in leveraging firm boundary strategies on both the return and risk dimensions of firm financial performance — higher return and lower risk.
