The focus of corporate parenting is a corporate strategy and the value that is created by the relationships of the parent company and its businesses. If a business can create value for the parent company, then the company is considered a good fit. A good example of a parent company that works well with its subsidiaries is General Motors, who owns brands such as Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC.
