why are companies so keen on recruiting externally instead of promoting from within?

Every company I’ve worked at seems to have a bias towards hiring externally rather than internally.

I’ve worked with some exceptional performers but the company still preferred to hire externally.

Is there reason for this that is kept quiet?

Hope. Hope that a complete unknown is better than a known imperfect. (This is what drives my particular organization.)
