Abstract

[eng] Having defined a methodology for quantifying the various growth patterns of the firm, this has been applied to a sample of 131 big French firms on the period 1966-1973.. The results show that the growth has been predominantly internal, even while external growth has played a non negligible role during the period surveyed, with the exception of 1968 and a reduction in 1972-1973.. The other results show that external growth has taken place with Frech partners, and when taking place through take-over or partial contribution of assets, has been financed through the remittance of shares.. Before attempting an overall explanation of the results, a sector by sector and firm by firm study is proposed. [fre] Après avoir élaboré une méthode de quantification de chaque mode de croissance dont dispose la firme, nous l'avons appliquée à un échantillon de 131 grandes sociétés françaises au cours de la période 1966 - 1973.. Nos résultats globaux mettent en évidence la prédominance de la croissance interne comme stratégie de développement bien que la part de la croissance externe soit non négligeable durant la période étudiée sauf en 1968 avec cependant, une réduction en 1972-1973.. Les autres résultats obtenus font apparaître notamment que la croissance est réalisée surtout avec des partenaires français et qu'elle est financée - en quasi totalité - par remise d'actions lorsqu'elle est effectuée par absorption d'actifs.. Nous proposons enfin une étude sectorielle et par société avant de tenter d'expliquer l'ensemble de nos résultats.
