We find substantial corporate-parent effects (here, business group effects) along with industry effects and business unit effects (here, affiliate, company-specific effects). This finding may indicate that business groups play an important role in developing countries by circumventing market inefficientcies. Our results also suggest that these effects tend to be smaller in larger business groups and to decrease over time
