Family-Based Business Groups: Degeneration of Quasi-Internal Organizations and Internal Markets in Korea
Nam, Sang-Woo | December 2001
Abstract
At the early stages of development, a close government-business partnership (here a QIO) and internal markets within a business group can often be advantageous. But as economies mature and are exposed to more complex and uncontrollable factors, including globalization, governments and businesses need to grow out of these limiting QIOs and internal markets. Otherwise, as the author shows, they run the risk of being stuck with a worn-out, inefficient, and potentially corrupting system.

Does the leapfrogging strategy work? Opinions vary but the evidence is scarce in part because it is more difficult to measure the degree of leapfrogging ..."While openness to trade is a well-recognized hallmark of the Asian growth model, another component of the model is a leapfrogging strategy—the use of policies to guide industrial structural transformation ahead of a country's factor endowment.
