Network Strategies and Performance of Canadian Investment Banks
研究了加拿大投资银行业中企业专业化程度如何影响其通过跨越合作伙伴间结构洞所实现的绩效,发现高度专业化或高度多元化的银行表现优于中等专业化银行。
What implications does a firm's specialization have for the performance the firm achieves by spanning structural holes between its partners? By analyzing networks within the Canadian investment banking industry, I found that, in networks rich in structural holes, both specialists and generalists performed better than banks of moderate specialization levels, and that generalist banks, in turn, performed better than specialists.
