Investor Benefits from Corporate International Diversification
比较美国跨国公司与国内公司的风险调整后收益,发现投资跨国公司并无额外好处,挑战了以往观点。
This study focuses on the risk-return characteristics of investments in the common stocks of U.S.–based multinational corporations (MNCs) and U.S. national corporations (NATLs). Findings follow from a comparison of the risk-adjusted performance of MNCs and NATLs using the framework of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). Results of this comparison challenge assertions of earlier writers that marginal benefits or advantages accrue from investments in MNCs as compared to NATLs.
