One of the most significant changes in the global economy today is the strong increase in outgoing foreign direct investment (OFDI) from emerging economies to industrialised countries. Whereas investment in less developed countries is often motivated by the sourcing of natural resources and...

This study explores the impact of headquarters’ innovation motives on subsidiary knowledge sourcing, and their subsequent roles. The motivation of this research is to expand upon the understanding of the roles of foreign subsidiaries, and their implications on the innovation performance of the...

This study examines whether and to what extent emerging-market multinational enterprises (EM MNEs) can use outward FDI in a developed market to capture knowledge spillovers so as to improve their technological capabilities at home. We refer to this as a “reverse spillover” effect on parent...

This paper is aimed to analyze the rise of New Mexican emerging multinational enterprises (MexEMNEs) into the global market. There is a growing interest in the study of these emerging multinationals among scholars. Several theoretical perspectives are reviewed which can give an explanation of...

The beneficial effects of innovation for firms' performance and competitiveness are well documented, but it has been suggested in recent years that innovation regimes differ between advanced and emerging economies. While advanced economies rely on knowledge generation, their emerging...

This study examines the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on local firms' productivity via human capital transfer from MNEs to local firms. Using the firm-level data for 2010-2015 from the Republic of Korea, we identify human capital spillovers using local firms' hired permanent foreign...

Emerging markets have long been the recipient of foreign direct investment (FDI) from the world’s more advanced countries. They have used this to their advantage and actively attracted inward FDI as part of their growth and development strategies. However, emerging markets have since spurred...

Non-traditional source countries of FDI play an increasingly important role, notably in developing host countries. This raises the question of whether the determinants of FDI differ systematically between traditional and non-traditional source countries. We perform Logit and Poisson Pseudo...
