Resumen

El presente trabajo estudia tres factores organizativos que pueden facilitar o inhibir el incremento del nivel de diversificación industrial: el tamaño corporativo, la diversificación internacional y la diversidad de producto inicial. En concreto, pretende analizar los efectos principales e interacción de dichos factores sobre la probabilidad de que las empresas aumenten el número de negocios donde participan. Para ello, tras revisar la literatura sobre diversificación y cambio estratégico, se plantean una serie de hipótesis, cuyo contraste se efectúa aplicando un análisis de regresión Logit. Los resultados indican que tanto el tamaño como la internacionalización de una empresa obstaculizan su crecimiento hacia nuevas líneas de actividad. Asimismo, este trabajo revela la existencia de interacciones significativas entre ambas variables y la diversidad de producto inicial que influyen favorablemente en el incremento de la diversificación industrial.
