Resumen

Las empresas zombis tienen una connotación negativa dado que afectan a los mercados en donde operan. Para entender este tipo de empresas en México, se analiza la influencia del tipo de estrategia empresarial en la probabilidad de ser empresa zombi. Para ello, se empleó un análisis logit para evaluar la probabilidad de incurrir en la característica zombi, se usó un panel de 99 empresas que cotizaron en la Bolsa Mexicana de Valores durante el periodo de 2013 a 2017. El resultado empírico evidencia que el tipo de estrategia defensivo disminuye la probabilidad de incurrir en la situación zombi; por otro lado, el tipo de estrategia analizador y proactivo muestran una mayor probabilidad en ser catalogadas como empresas zombis, lo que, a priori podría sorprender, sin embargo, el entorno institucional Latinoamericano favorece que dicho comportamiento sea propenso a derivar en la situación zombi.
