Maximilian Lantelme examines the historical growth and decline
developments of large German family and non-family businesses
between 1971 and 2011. Based on a sample of the 143 largest German
companies in 1971 and in 2011, the author investigates the
long-term development of each company and calculates compound
annual growth rates (CAGR) to compare the developments of total
sales and of the number of employees between the enterprises with
the overall development of the German economy. Additionally, he
presents the exit rates as well as the reasons for the downfalls of
the different types of companies. The results show a superior
development of family businesses especially compared to non-family
businesses due to lower exit and higher growth rates. The strategic
implications are that family businesses should achieve a certain
corridor of growth in the long-term to secure the company's
existence over generations.
