MUNOZ MUNOZ, Diego Fernando; MATABANCHOY TULCAN, Sonia Maritza GUEVARA CANCHALA, Nayive Tatiana. FAMILY COMPANIES: DEFINITIÓN, CHARACTERISTICS AND CONTRIBUTIONS. []. , 21, 1, pp.197-220. ISSN 0124-8693. https://doi.org/10.22267/rtend.202101.133.
The family business can be understood as a complex organization, crossed by a family bond that directs business policy, its objectives and goals. In it the property, its management and its subsequent succession are areas that, classically, show the problems that have been most commonly studied, and which determine the continuity of the organization beyond the second generation.
Objective:
to identify studies carried out on family businesses from different disciplines in the period from 2007 to 2019.
Method:
It was carried out under the methodology of systematic review, by searching for articles in the Dialnet, Redalyc, Scielo and IDEA databases.
Results:
Academic commercial, financial and marketing areas lead research related to family businesses. It is visualized that the succession, the relations between the owners and the relevance of family businesses in the economy in general have been the most discussed topics, showing themselves as an opportunity for improvement and contribution by the disciplines interested in family businesses. On the other hand, the possibility of generating models of analysis of GTH processes in the EF is articulated as an opportunity to respond to the specific needs of this type of companies.
