A large body of scholarship in political economy suggests economic growth, and foreign direct investment in regulated industries in particular, is more likely to occur when formal institutions allow states to provide credible commitments regarding the security of property rights. In contrast, this article argues that we must instead examine differences in firm organizational structure and embeddedness to explain variation in the resilience of privatization contracts in weak institutional environments. Domestic investors-or, if contracts are granted at the subnational level, domestic investors with diverse local holdings-work most effectively in the developing world. Domestic investors are better able to negotiate mutually beneficial adaptations to their formal contracts with host governments because they can draw on informal contractual supports that derive from cross-sector diversification and embeddedness in the market. This article finds strong support for this argument through an analysis of fourteen water privatization contracts in Argentina. © 2013 SAGE Publications.

Entrepreneurial firms in their early stages cannot finance their own capital sufficiently; hence, external investment is crucial for their survival. Angels, venture capital, and governmental support have played key roles in entrepreneurial financing. Accelerators, a new type of early-stage investor, have been rapidly growing in recent years, and have attracted strong attention. They provide financial support to entrepreneurial firms in their early stages along with mentorship, education, and networking services. However, the advantages of accelerators over existing funding avenues have yet to be proven. Therefore, this study analyzes the behavior and performance of accelerators, angels, and venture capital. We used 30,523 investment data regarding accelerators, angels, and venture capital from the CrunchBase database. By conducting multiple regression and survival analyses, we found that the performance of accelerators differs from that of venture capital, but is similar to that of angels. While accelerators' investees perform well post funding, venture capitals' investees perform well in terms of survivability. This study empirically verifies accelerator-related qualitative research. Additionally, we believe our results will contribute to future accelerator-related research and policy.
