Abstract

Le programme de privatisation français est l'un des principaux programmes mondiaux quant au volume des émissions. Une lecture du processus de privatisation à travers la théorie de la gouvernance des entreprises a conduit à élaborer un modèle permettant de prendre en compte, d'une part, la dimension temporelle du processus de privatisation, d'autre part, les variables contextuelles, organisationnelles, de gouvernance et stratégiques qui contraignent ce processus. Après avoir répliqué un certain nombre de tests traditionnels, nous avons testé ce modèle sur un échantillon de 19 entreprises privatisées françaises et sur un horizon de sept ans, ce qui a permis d'aboutir aux conclusions suivantes. L'incidence favorable attribuée traditionnellement aux privatisations n'est pas véritablement confirmée pour les privatisations françaises, tout au moins sur l'horizon considéré. La privatisation n'induit un effet positif significatif sur la performance que pour un faible nombre d'entreprises. L'importance de l'effet, cependant, est subordonnée à certaines des variables proposées.
