Abstract

In questo articolo le determinanti delle decisioni di entrata e di uscita delle imprese vengono analizzate empiricamente attraverso l’esame di un campione rappresentativo dei maggiori gruppi operanti in Italia. L’attenzione è rivolta al ruolo degli investimenti irreversibili quali indicatori dell’esistenza di barriere all’entrata. Due ipotesi contrastanti sono sottoposte a verifica da un lato si assume che le spese in ricerca e sviluppo e in pubblicità possano agire come barriere all’entrata in nuove industrie, sia per le nuove imprese, sia per le imprese già operanti in altri settori, a causa della loro specificità settoriale. Dall’altro lato, tali attività potrebbero indurre le imprese esistenti ad entrare in nuove industrie simili a quelle in cui sono già attive. Ciò implica che tali investimenti siano specifici per l’impresa ma trasferibili tra industrie. I risultati suggeriscono che la seconda ipotesi si adatta meglio al comportamento delle imprese analizzate.
