| Abstract: | The recent emergence of multinational companies (MNCs) from Central and Eastern European countries (CEECs), especially the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Poland, and Slovenia, are analysed in this article. The majority of MNCs from CEECs concentrate their activity regionally, though some global MNCs also exist. Geographical allocation of outward FDI gives evidence that physical distance, cultural nearness and historical ties are relevant in deciding where to invest. |
