The article analyzes FDI inflows into Baltic countries using a gravity approach. The results of the empirical estimation allow us to explain how difference in corporate taxation between countries, geographical and cultural distance, institutions such as regulations and the size of the economy as...

We quantify the impact of barriers to international investment, using a novel multi-country dynamic general equilibrium model with heterogeneous investors and imperfect capital mobility. Our model yields a gravity equation for bilateral foreign asset positions. We estimate this gravity equation...
