Title: Essays on firm strategy and performance in emerging economies
Description: "The papers that make up this dissertation aim to marry two extensive academic literatures: i.) the strategy literature, a key tenet of which is that market inefficiencies can be taken advantage of by firms with the right resources; and ii.) the law and finance literature, which shows that strong, predictable government institutions encourage competition and efficient allocation of scarce resources in emerging economies."--leaf iii.
