| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigates how corporate diversification across industries affects employees with particular attention to the effect on wages. Coinsurance generated by internal capital markets likely increases the financial stability of diversified firms. We posit that the effect of increased job security on wages is qualitatively contingent upon employees’ bargaining power. Consistent with this prediction, an analysis of listed Japanese firms over the period from 2001 to 2010 reveals that the effect of diversification on wages is significantly positive for firms with unionized employees and significantly negative for firms with nonunionized employees. This is a novel result unreported in the literature.
