Resumo
Research Summary: We extend the ownership com petence framework by discussing how the features of the institutional environment influence the exercise of ownership competence. Two amendments are pro posed. First, we add a new dimension to the frame work, institutional competence (“where to own”), which denotes that individuals and firms have heterogeneous abilities to assess how an institutional environment affects the potential uses of a resource. Second, we argue that institutional uncertainty moderates the three original dimensions of the framework, impairing the exercise of ownership competence of some entrepre neurs and firms more than of others. We use examples from the literature to illustrate our arguments. We also discuss the implications of our analysis.
Managerial Summary: The ownership competence framework is built on the idea that business owners have different abilities to deploy resources and create value. Starting from this contribution, we shed light on the specific role that the institutional environment plays in the exercise of ownership competence. We
argue that the ownership competence framework must explicitly consider where ownership takes place in order to explain the actions of entrepreneurs and firms. We also claim that institutional uncertainty can influence value creation in more subtle ways than indicated in the original formulation of the ownership competenceframework. All in all, this article paves the way forinstitutional aspects to be considered more explicitly inthe strategic analysis of ownership.
