Few studies have examined the effects of corporate ownership reform on emerging market firms’ advantages and capabilities for outward FDI. By linking the implications of such reform to the configuration of resources, organizational attributes, and strategic orientation of firms we advance an extended FSA framework incorporating the dynamics of organizational ambiguity to analyze EM firms’ internationalization behavior. We validate our model by conducting an empirical study of 973 publicly listed Chinese firms spanning 8 years from 2002-2009. The findings suggest that various types of reformed shareholding have different effects on firms’ proclivity for outward FDI. We also find evidence of synergies and misalignments between ownership derived
