Abstract: A model is developed for estimating the regional output and employment effects of linkage and final demand changes experienced by externally acquired companies. The model is illustrated using examples from the Scotch whisky industry. Systematically negative linkage effects of takeover are found, but the overall size of these effects on regional economic activity is invariably lower than the effect of takeover on final demand.
