内容简介:
Using the transaction cost economics framework, the extant literature in the marketing channels has widely studied opportunism in the buyer-supplier relationship. However, this perspective has generally ignored the institutional environment constraining the buyer-supplier relationship, which is the fundamental determinant of transaction costs of market exchanges. In this study, we articulate the institutional environment in which the buyer-supplier relationship is embedded by identifying four institutions along with two dimensions: informal vs. formal and micro vs. macro. Empirical results from 445 matched Chinese buyer-supplier dyads reveal that the institutional forces not only directly mitigate the channel members' opportunism but also attenuate the positive effects of exchange hazards on opportunism. This study offers important implications for public policy and managerial practice.
