Migrant Entrepreneurship Under Institutional Voids

Olarewaju, Tolulope; Fashola, Olushola

Abstract

Migrant entrepreneurship is defined as migrants engaging in business venture creation, and institutional voids refer to political and economic systems, trade policies, and product, labor, and capital market deficiencies that imply the absence of specialized intermediaries, regulatory systems, and contract-enforcing mechanisms. They create higher transaction costs for doing business and are commonly found in emerging markets.
