Using data from the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, the proposal was tested for the 1977-86 period on the California savings and loan (S&L) industry; an industry that has undergone economic, technological, and regulatory shifts that have forced S&Ls to adapt or fail. The results indicate that diversification away from a firm's base domain helps financial performance in most cases but that only 3 of 8 types of change improve survival chances. The 1 type of change that was found to seem harmful to S&Ls is acquiring direct investments in real estate. It was also found that the distinction between moving into related and unrelated lines matters for short-term financial performance but not for organizational failure. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
