Strategic alliances are becoming a common practice between organizations in the global economy. They are seen as being able to improve performance and help keep organizations competitive. Bizzi (2017) argues that an integral aspect of forming a strategic alliance is the level of financial slack resource an organization has. The greater the financial headroom, the more likely an organization is to engage on a potentially risky alliance. In a global market place where resources and funding are becoming increasingly scarce, organizations that can have largely unallocated resources can be seen as ideal partners. And the key resource in today’s economy for alliances is finance.
