Abstract

Por medio de transferencia tecnológica, externalidades (o spillovers) y vínculos con entidades locales las empresas multinacionales poseen el potencial de asistir en el desarrollo económicode las economías emergentes. Este artículo argumenta que filiales extranjeras operando en una economía emergente (Chile) mostrarán múltiples tipos de vínculos tales como vínculos competitivos y de colaboración con empresas locales. Las filiales extranjeras compensarán sus desventajas derivadas de su origen extranjero por medio del establecimiento de vínculos colaborativos, los cuales incrementan las ventajas provenientes de sus activos (ownership advantages) en términos de producción de productos y procesos que son socialmente responsables (Responsabilidad Social Empresarial, RSE). Para el análisis del grado de vinculación (Degree of Linkage, DOL) entre las filiales extranjeras y las empresas locales una muestra de empresas del sector servicios en Chile fue analizada utilizando técnicas de estudio de casos. Se encontró que las filiales extranjeras efectivamente establecen múltiples tipos de vínculos con otras empresas, y las filiales que han establecido un nivel de vínculos por sobre el promedio, en términos de cantidad y calidad, también han establecido vínculos de RSE por sobre el promedio. Se discuten las implicaciones de estos resultados en términos de políticas y para la teoría de negocios internacionales.
