Abstract

The roles of the market-based view (MBV)-based push force or resource-based view (RBV)-based pull force of the firm investment are both fundamentally essential in explaining of entering emerging markets. In order to unfold the real force of investing in unstable environment, we take investment overseas from Taiwan to China during first Asian financial crisis (1997–1999). Using 836 listed Taiwanese firms investing toward China, we examine whether the MBV-based push force or RBV-based pull force enables the Taiwanese firms investing in China during Aisa crisis. The empirical finding shows that the RBV-based pull force is remarkably more influential than MBV-based push force as Asia encountered financial crisis during this period of time, which offers a natural experiment arena for testing the explanation power of the RBV-based pull force under environmental instability.
