MNE institutional advantage: How subunits shape, transpose and evade host country institutions (2014, background): “…this response at the subunit level, thereby adding to the growing recognition that local subunits play important roles in MNE activities in general (Rugman & Verbeke, 2001; Andersson, Forsgren, & Holm, 2002, 2007; Almeida & Phene, 2004) and in the development of firm-specific advantages in…”
Geographic scope and multinational enterprise performance (2003, background): “The core determinants that drive the internalization of value-adding processes are the MNE’s firm-specific advantages and the country-specific factors upon which the firm relies to obtain competitive advantage (Rugman and Verbeke, 2001).”
The Corporate Headquarters in the Contemporary Corporation: Advancing a Multimarket Firm Perspective (2015, background): “Research on the influence of the multinational firm’s structure on the CHQ has often centered on novel network designs (e.g., Ciabuschi, Dellestrand, & Martín, 2011; Foss, Foss, & Nell, 2012; Howard, 1991; Nohria & Ghoshal, 1997; Rugman & Verbeke, 2001).”
Global platforms and ecosystems: Implications for international business theories (2019, background): “For instance, the internalization theory (e.g., Buckley & Casson, 1976; Hennart, 1977, 1982a, b; Rugman, 1981; Rugman & Verbeke, 1992, 2001, 2003, 2004), built largely on transaction cost economics, has served as the theoretical foundation for much of the extant research on IB and has informed on a…”
The impact of increases in subsidiary autonomy and network relationships on performance (2012, background): “Alternatively, autonomy can be used by subsidiaries to engage in rent-seeking behavior (Mudambi & Navarra, 2004) or the development of location-bound resources (Rugman & Verbeke, 2001).”
Beyond Hofstede and GLOBE: Improving the quality of cross-cultural research (2010, background): “…research at the micro-level, building upon differences between home and host countries, has been fundamentally ill-conceived, especially in an era of network MNEs where host-country operations can be strategic leaders and even command subsidiary-specific advantages (Rugman & Verbeke, 2001).”
Development of archetypes of international marketing strategy (2006, background): “Indeed, subsidiary-level issues are increasingly gaining attention within the international business literature (Ghoshal and Bartlett, 1990; Nohria and Ghoshal, 1997; Rugman and Verbeke, 2001).”
Global, Local, or Regional? The Locus of MNE Strategies (2016, neutral): “In this context, Rugman and Verbeke (2001) coined the term subsidiary-specific advantage.”
Examining the Penrose effect in an international business context: the dynamics of Japanese firm growth in US industries (2005, background): “…within the multinational firm, the managers often need to build up lateral integrating mechanisms (such as inter-subsidiary meetings and committees) to increase contacts between managers from different subsidiaries (O’Donnell, 2000; Rugman and Verbeke, 2001; Subramaniam and Venkatraman, 2001).”
