Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We demonstrate variation in the extent to which firms benefit from their affiliation with Chilean business groups in the 1988-1996 period. The net benefits of unrelated diversification are positive if group diversification exceeds a threshold level, though this threshold increases with time. We find evidence of non-diversification related group benefits, which atrophy over time. We conjecture that the evolution of institutional context alters the value creating potential of business groups, though it does so slowly.
