Locating Foreign Affiliates in Germany: The Case of Swedish MNEs

Henrik Braconier and Karolina Ekholm

Chapter 4 in Foreign-owned Firms, 2002, pp 89-106 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Sweden is an important home country for multinational enterprises (MNEs). In particular, relative to its size, Sweden is the country of origin of a large number of large and highly internationalized MNEs. The fact that Germany is the largest economy in Europe and lies geographically close to Sweden makes it an attractive location for Swedish firms. Therefore, Germany has consistently been one of the most important host countries for Swedish MNEs.
