Abstract
Existing global MNC literature addresses subsidiary operations from a home or a collaborative perspective. However, little research has been done on the topic of subsidiary management inputs into the process of strategic decision making. In particular, do such managers have an input in the decision to shed operations? The article examines the advantages of subsidiary management assessments on strategic exit decisions in these global MNC environments. Temporal and longitudinal studies of prominent global MNCs with plants in Puerto Rico during the 23 year period from 1973–1995 are used to illustrate the findings. © 2007 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
