Determinants of German FDI : new evidence from micro-data

Toubal, Farid; Kleinert, Jörn; Buch, Claudia M. - 2003

the years 1990-2000 to describe the regional and sectoral patterns of German FDI through gravity-type equations. We … provide evidence on the patterns of FDI by sector, by size of the foreign affiliate, and by the number of affiliates per host … country. While market size and geographic distance have a significant impact on FDI stocks, we also find differences in the …
