| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project revealed the relationship between transaction costs in a corporate group and governance on group firms. Transaction costs are the costs required for a certain transaction including monitoring and searching costs. The analysis on railway groups revealed that of managers' temporary transfer to group firms contributes to a reduction on transaction costs and that this effect of managers' temporary transfer could be substituted for human resource development scheme or organizational structure. The analysis on information and communication industry revealed that group size involved in a transaction and the duration and the frequency of transaction are the important factors in measuring transaction costs between group firms.
