We examine a sample of 185 Joint Ventures parented by publicly-traded Equity Real Estate Investment Trusts 1994-2001. These transactions are found to be motivated by a wide variety of corporate strategies. Shareholder returns for REIT parents are significantly positive, which is consistent with wealth effects previously reported for joint ventures formed by non-REIT real estate firms. In a subsample of joint ventures formed to structure partial dispositions of property, however, abnormal returns are significantly negative, which is consistent with the free cash flow theory of Jensen. REIT joint venture experience in Asia has been neutral for value, but may improve in the future if early ventures have created options for more efficient partnerships later.

Joint ventures have become a common vehicle for companies to create strategic alliances with partners that have complementary capabilities and resources, fostering opportunities to exploit distribution channels, technology, or finance in ways not available to the sole partners. Simply put, in a joint venture, two or more parent companies agree to pool defined capital, technology, human resources, risks, and rewards in the formation of a distinct entity under shared control. The complexities of such an arrangement are magnified when the project embraces more than one jurisdiction. In this special issue of the Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business, practitioners who have specialized in domestic and cross border joint venture formations report on their respective jurisdictions as well as particular cross border issues. The volume provides national reports on Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, China, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Kuwait, Lebanon, The Philippines, Romania, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, and Vietnam. European competition law relative to joint ventures, taxation issues in The Netherlands, and governing law also are treated.

Julian Eibel studies the contribution of joint venture (JV) use as means of financing flexibility against the background of diverse financial restrictions in the institutional and regulated environment of the REIT Act. After reviewing JV motives for classical corporations, the real estate and REIT industry as well as the financing and capital behavior of REITs, the author finds JVs to result from REIT managers’ need of financing flexibility to allow timely funding outside regulated markets. Thus, he argues JVs mitigate financing restrictions and stimulate capital markets to regain access to classical financing.

"The purpose of this portfolio is to provide a source of guidance to tax practitioners advising clients investing in U.S. real estate through or with a private REIT. It includes a discussion of the unique issues that a private REIT confronts in complying with the qualification requirements under the Code, including issues relating to forming the REIT and ensuring that the REIT earns qualifying income, while obtaining an ownership structure that serves the business objectives of the joint venture participants (including management of the property by a significant participant in the joint venture). It also addresses issues unique to UPREITs and DownREITs, issues that arise in taking a public REIT or UPREIT private, and issues presented in selling or otherwise exiting from a private REIT. In addition, it addresses the particular issues that arise for foreign investors, including withholding, the branch profits tax, issues under U.S. tax treaties, and issues for foreign governmental investors under [Section] 892 of the Code."--Page iii.

International Joint Ventures: Economic and Organizational Perspectives is the result of a symposium on International Joint Ventures and Strategic Alliances held by the Center for Research in Conflict and Negotiation at Pennsylvania State University. The book gives a cross-disciplinary treatment of the economic and managerial issues affecting joint venture formation, operation and performance, including subjects ranging from the impact of international trade policy to cross-cultural communication on joint venture operations. The volume enriches our understanding of each discipline from the vantage point of the other, building a more complete understanding of joint ventures as a mode of entry into domestic and international markets. Two categories of question are analyzed: issues of importance to the joint potential and actual participants in a joint venture, and issues related to the social effects of joint ventures from the point of view of society as a whole or its agent, the regulator. The questions are addressed using simple theoretical models and conceptual discussions as well as empirical analyses. Audience: Executives, policy makers and scholars of economics, decision analysis, political science and management.
