| Abstract: | Firms have different motives for investing abroad, most notably to exercise existing capabilities, but also to build new capabilities by accessing knowledge located abroad. Recognizing this heterogeneity helps determine whether foreign investments transfer technology to their host industries. Relatively uncompetitive industries experience productivity growth while competitive industries experience productivity stagnation from foreign direct investment (FDI). |
