本文建立了两个事实，跨境垂直一体化和企业内贸易的企业在韩国和日本的制造业。首先，母公司与其子公司之间的公司内贸易高度集中在少数大型跨国公司。第二，母公司所属行业与子公司所属行业之间的投入产出系数与母公司与子公司之间的企业内贸易的存在和规模之间的相关性较弱。此外，这两个特征在国内垂直一体化企业中也存在。特别是，第二点确定需要进一步研究两个制造商，国内的最终产品生产商和国外的投入供应商之间的跨界纵向一体化的动机。
This paper establishes two facts about cross-border vertical integration and intra-firm trade of firms in Korean and Japanese manufacturing industries. First, the intra-firm trade between a parent firm and its affiliates is highly concentrated in a small number of large multinational corporations. Second, the input–output coefficient between the parent firm's industry and the affiliate's industry is weakly related to the presence and magnitude of intra-firm trade between the parent firm and its affiliates. Furthermore, these two characteristics are also found in domestic vertically integrated firms. In particular, the second point identifies a need for further research on the motivation of cross-border vertical integration between two manufacturers, the final good producers at home and the input suppliers abroad.
