摘要: 以1999—2018年参与医药制造业跨国并购的国家为研究样本,构建了以国家为节点、跨国并购关系为边的网络,利用双向固定效应模型实证检验了FTA对医药制造业跨国并购网络结构洞的影响。结果显示,各国签订FTA的数量与跨国并购网络结构洞的数量之间呈现“倒U型”关系,而国家的经济发展水平能够强化FTA与结构洞的“倒U型”关系。这丰富了结构洞前因变量的研究,对各国在医药制造业跨国并购的实践中合理利用FTA提高信息和知识资源的获取质量及数量,进而提高跨国并购的效益,具有启示意义。

Abstract: Taking the countries participating in cross-border M&A of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry from 1999 to 2018 as the research samples, a network with countries as nodes and cross-border M&A relations as edges is constructed, and the influence of FTA on the network structure holes of cross-border M&A of high-tech industries is empirically tested by using the two-way fixed effect model. The results show that there is an “inverted U-shaped” relationship between the number of FTA signed by various countries and the number of structure holes in the cross-border M&A network. However, a country's economic development level can strengthen the “inverted U-shaped” relationship between FTA and structure holes. The study enriches the research of antecedent variables of structure holes, and has significant implications for countries to make rational use of FTA to improve the quality and quantity of information and knowledge resources in the practice of cross-border M&A of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, and therefore improve the efficiency of cross-border M&A.

Key words: Free Trade Agreement (FTA); cross-border merger and acquisition (M&A); social network; structure hole; pharmaceutical manufacturing industry
