My Research Expertise & Interests

My research examines how MNEs navigate institutional complexities in global expansion, focusing on cultural, political, and managerial constraints. I analyze how firms adapt to regulatory uncertainty, optimize resource allocation, and manage staffing in diverse environments.

Using econometric modeling and machine learning, I study large-scale datasets, including Japanese MNEs’ FDIs, Compustat, and World Bank indicators, to uncover patterns in market entry, exit, and re-entry strategies.

My work integrates institutional theory and the resource-based view to offer insights into strategic decision-making amid global uncertainty.
