Abstract

Este working paper presenta una primera elaboración rudimentaria de dos bases de datos sobre las mayors empresas familiares del mundo en dos hitos cronológicos: 2005 (antes de la actual crisis), y 2010 (después del inicio de la actual crisis). Los objetivos principales son describir algunas de las principales evidencias empíricas cuantitativas observadas, y reflexionar sobre posibles impactos de la crisis en las mayores empresas familiares que existían en 11 países en 2005. Algunas conclusiones muy preliminares son, en primer lugar, que la crisis no parece haber provocado un col·lapso general entre las mayores empresas familiares del mundo, lo que indicaria buena resistencia a la actual situación de crisis. Segundo, que los aparentes efectos negativos de la crisis en este grupo de empresas parecen haber sido más significativos entre las empresas familiares de la vieja Europa que en las de otros continentes. Tercero, que los efectos aparentemente más positivos parecerían darse entre conglomerados de control familiar con domicilio social en economies emergentes, en los que hay empresas muy dinámicas en sectores de alta tecnologia, energia y finanzas. Una hipòtesis a investigar en el futuro derivada de estas observaciones es que en la crisis actual las grandes empresas familiares de economias emergentes, en sectores intensivos en capital y tecnologia, parecen tener mejores comportamientos económicos que grandes emporios familiares industriales de sectores menos capital intensivos.
