Governments in hegemonic states use economic sanctions to induce changes in other countries. This study examines the impact of such sanctions on international business networks, focusing on the destruction of financial relations between U.S. banks and Chilean firms following Salvador Allende's rise to power in 1970. The findings suggest that firms were largely unaffected by the loss of links with U.S. banks, as they substituted these relations with domestic banks.
Governments in hegemonic states use economic sanctions to induce changes in other countries. What happens to international business networks when these sanctions are in place? We use new historical firm-level data to document the destruction of financial relations between U.S. banks and Chilean firms after socialist Salvador Allende took office in 1970. Business reports and stock prices suggest that firms were mostly unaffected by having fewer links with U.S. banks. Substitution of financial relations towards domestic banks appears to be the key mechanism explaining these findings.
