This table reports the descriptive statistics for the variables used in this study. The sample comprises 667 firm-year observations from 119 Nordic MNEs over 1992–2019. It uses all firm-year observations with non-missing divestment, insolvency risk (DD and/or CDS), and control variables. Model-specific Ns may be lower due to additional variable requirements or lags; each model reports its own N
