Empirical studies provide evidence of positive spillovers from multinational firms to upstream suppliers coupled with … negative spillovers to firms in the same industry.

The aim of our paper is to empirically estimate the direction and magnitude of technological spillovers from FDI using … order to estimate total factor productivity and compute several measures of spillover effect based on time varying Input …-Output tables. We find local suppliers to benefit from positive backward spillovers while local clients are negatively affected by …
