Abstract

This study focuses on institutional change as a determinant of entry mode. It examines the relationship between the choices of entry implemented by firms seeking cross-border corporate growth in Europe. In doing so it aims to understand how the evolution of Europe as a unified business environment and how the membership of the host country in the European Union affect this outcome. Additionally, it seeks to determine how other related aspects of economic geography, such as global cities, impact entry mode decisions. Overall, the results indicate that institutional changes in Europe, EU membership, and global cities all shape the governance choices of MNEs.
