摘要
Family business became a promising area of research in countries of the former Eastern Bloc, including the Czech Republic. According to the literature, there are differences in performance of family and non-family firms. By applying Student's t test to a sample of 1 461 family and 5 379 non-family firms, we found that Czech non-family firms outperformed family firms in asset turnover in 2009-2013. We didn't find any significant differences in return on equity, profit margin and leverage. We explain the possible reasons for differences using semi-structured interviews with family firm owners.
