Abstract
Presents a conceptual framework to examine when multinationals create, or face difficulty creating, value in cross-border commerce. We pay particular attention to their role as intermediaries in international transactions where the existence of traditional market intermediaries that provide information to both sides is absent.; To familiarize students with the expansive role multinationals can play by internalizing intermediary functions in cross-border transactions when cross-border institutional voids are present.
