Chapter 3 in Entrepreneurship and Growth, 2013, pp 69-91 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Although Social Sciences research on business groups has focused on the period starting after WWII, historical literature has stressed the presence and relevance of this kind of organizational pattern since the beginning of the nineteenth century (Colpan and Hikino, 2010, p. 47). Many examples of business groups can be found during the first global economy, in different geographic settings, from Japanese zaibatsu and Indian business groups to Latin American grupos económicos and British trading companies operating in Asia, Latin America and Africa, which started to diversify their business in the 1870s.
