Abstract
We adopt a Penrosean perspective to study the effect of rapid international
expansion on the subsequent divestment of international operations. We draw
on regional strategy theory and differentiate Penrosean managerial resources
by their geographical fungibility to argue that the effect of rapid international
expansion on the divestment of international operations varies with the
regional patterns of firms’ international expansion and international
experience. We test our hypotheses using two-stage least squares (2SLS)
estimation on data that capture the international expansion and divestment of
retailers over the period 2003–2012.
