Abstract

Investors often retain their initial set-up of an international joint venture (IJV) even when more beneficial alternatives have emerged. Such persistence appears inconsistent with rational decision-making. We analyze this persistence to advance the theoretical analysis of strategic decisions in international business with a focus on switches of ownership modes. More specifically, we propose a model that explains how cognitive biases may affect managerial valuations and thus decision-making regarding IJVs.
