Abstract

Business groups are distinguished in the management literature as the unique organisational form differing from stand-alone companies. Research shows that ownership and control pattern remains the most important feature of a business group which determines its strategy and development. The paper identifies characteristics of Polish business groups with respect to ownership structure and mechanisms for control leverage by dominant shareholders. The study is based on the hand collected data on the sample of 30 largest non-financial business groups listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange and reveals which ownership and control strategies were adopted in the post-transition environment of the Polish economy.
